Chemically Driven Oscillating Soft Pneumatic Actuation [PDF]

open access: yesSoft Robotics, 2023
Pneumatic actuators are widely studied in soft robotics as they are facile, low cost, scalable, robust and exhibit compliance similar to many systems found in nature. The challenge is to harness high energy density chemical and biochemical reactions that

Design of Robot Hand With Pneumatic Dual-Mode Actuation Mechanism Powered by Chemical Gas Generation Method

open access: yesIEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, 2018
In this letter, we introduce an anthropomorphic robot hand by proposing a pneumatic dual-mode actuation mechanism powered by a compact pneumatic power generator based on the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide.

Comparison of MRI-Compatible Mechatronic Systems With Hydrodynamic and Pneumatic Actuation [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics, 2008
The strong magnetic fields and limited space make it challenging to design the actuation for mechatronic systems intended to work in MRI environments.

A Special Pneumatic Actuator

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1980
Abstract It has been developed by our Institute a special robustic electropneumatic stepping motor in order to make possible an additional remote control over valves-operated by hand before. The development seems to be sucsessfull and has been approved by different experiments.

Highly flexible pneumatic actuators

2019 IEEE 4th International Conference on Advanced Robotics and Mechatronics (ICARM), 2019
Currently, the main limitation to the use of the Flexible Actuators (FA) are their complicated construction and high manufacturing costs. They are also difficult to control, especially 3D printed FA. This paper describes a new type of FA. It is built with two springs left-and right-coil and one elastic tube mounted inside the springs.

Fuzzy Control of a Pneumatic Actuator

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1997
Abstract This work describes the design and the behavior of a fuzzy control system for a pneumatic actuator, aimed at controlling the piston position and at enabling the system to accurately follow desired reference trajectories. A non-linear model of the system and three increasingly complex versions of the fuzzy controller are described in this ...

Analysis of Pneumatic Balloon Actuator

2011 8th International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots and Ambient Intelligence (URAI), 2011
This paper describes the analysis of Pneumatic Balloon Actuator (PBA). To do this, Finite Element Method (FEM) is used. In this paper, no-load characteristic of PBA is studied and through this, the displacement and stress of PBA can be calculated.
