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.

Application Research of Microstructured Flexible Sensors in Rehabilitative Wearable Sensing

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flexible sensors enable the continuous, real‐time monitoring of the physiological and movement signals of patients, providing data support for precise rehabilitation strategies and playing a crucial role in rehabilitation medicine. However, traditional rigid sensors are often incompatible with dynamic body contours due to their high material ...
