Modeling and Characterization of a Self‐Sensing Soft Hydraulic Muscle
Advanced 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.
