User-centric feedback for the development and review of a unique robotic glove prototype to be used in therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Disability can be a great impediment to daily living in later life and is often the result of illness or trauma. Modern thoughts on treatment are orientated towards the use of robotics; however, these are often designed without consultation with the user.

A Soft Wearable Robot for Vertical Jump Enhancement via a Pneumatic Energy‐Storing Propulsion Actuator and Triarticular Kinetic‐Chained Structure

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The Jump‐Enhancing Textile Suit integrates the Pneumatic Energy‐Storing Propulsion Actuator (PESPA) and the Triarticular Kinetic‐Chained Structure (TKiCS). PESPA stores elastic energy under pneumatic pressure and releases it during the propulsive phase to augment movement.

Enhanced Hill's Muscle Model for Tissue‐Engineered Skeletal Muscle and its Application to Reverse‐Action Tweezers Actuation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.
A six‐element viscoelastic model is presented for tissue‐engineered skeletal muscle, addressing the limitations of the conventional Hill's model. By introducing an active branch, the model accurately describes force responses in both elongation and isometric tests and successfully predicts the electrically induced displacement of a reverse‐action ...
