Sea Cucumber‐Inspired Double‐Network Biopolymer Hydrogels for Programmable Soft Machines

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the mutable dermis of sea cucumbers, the collagen‐alginate double‐network elastomeric (CoDE) hydrogel achieves programmable, recoverable, and functional mechanical behavior. The CoDE hydrogel mimics the mutable stiffness of the sea cucumber dermis through a densified collagen cryogel scaffold that is secondarily reinforced by a dissipative,

Anisotropic Nanofiber Architectures for Strain‐Insensitive Pressure Sensing and Stretchable Interconnects

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Electrospun PEDOT/PAAm nanofiber mats exhibit anisotropic electromechanical behavior, maintaining stable resistance under tensile strain while showing pressure‐responsive resistance modulation under vertical loading. This direction‐dependent response highlights their potential as tensile‐stable, pressure‐responsive components for deformable sensing and

Characterization and Selection of Contractile Actuators for Soft Robotics Operating in the Quasistatic Regime

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
We developed methods to characterize soft contractile actuators using force–displacement measurements in the passive state and the total force in the active state and define the operational range of thermal, electrothermal, and pneumatic muscles. A graphical method enables the selection of an actuator based on the required mechanical force–displacement
