Modeling and Characterization of a Self‐Sensing Soft Hydraulic Muscle

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article presents the self‐sensing soft hydraulic muscle (SSHM), a novel soft actuator capable of simultaneously sensing force and length without external sensors. A comprehensive model accurately predicts SSHM behavior, validated experimentally with minimal errors. Using propylene glycol enhances durability and reduces hysteresis.

Scalable High‐Force Zipping Electrostatic Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
An electrostatic actuator architecture is presented that combines high energy density with forces and strokes suited for wearable soft robotics. By folding patterned thin films into a scalable honeycomb of zipping units, performance becomes tunable through series–parallel design, achieving over 40 N and 28 J/kg.

Design of Hydraulic Power Take-Offs for Wave-Powered Reverse Osmosis Desalination: Meeting Constraints on Pressure Variation

open access: yes
Abstract Using ocean wave energy to power saltwater desalination through reverse osmosis (RO) relies on a power take-off (PTO) capable of converting highly variable power to relatively smooth pressurized flow for compatibility with conventional RO systems.

Experimental Investigation of Microbubble Evolution in the Liquivac Multiphase Flow Pump

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper aims to experimentally investigate the mechanisms of microbubble characteristics evolution within an axial pump. The findings will aid in assessing the pump performance by identifying the range of bubble sizes and comparing them with the threshold size (< 300 μm). This study also provides evidence supporting the use of such pumps as
