Fabric muscle with a cooling acceleration structure for upper limb assistance soft exosuits
Soft exosuits used for supporting human muscle strength must be lightweight and wearable. Shape memory alloy (SMA) spring-based fabric muscles (SFM) are light and flexible, making them suitable for soft and shape-conformable exosuits.

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 ...

Topology Optimization of Exo‐Glove Poly II for Enhancing Functionality and Wearability
This study proposes a topology optimization method for Exo‐Glove Poly II to enhance functionality and wearability. By modeling its finger body as a longitudinally periodic structure, a unit cell‐level optimization—aimed at minimizing distortion and achieving user‐preferred stretchability—is established. Experimental validation shows reduced distortion,
