Coupled Hamiltonians and Three Dimensional Short-Range Wetting Transitions

open access: yes, 1997
We address three problems faced by effective interfacial Hamiltonian models of wetting based on a single collective coordinate \ell representing the position of the unbinding fluid interface.

Tube Mechanism With 3-Axis Rotary Joints Structure to Achieve Variable Stiffness Using Positive Pressure

open access: yesIEEE Robotics and Automation Letters
Studies on soft robotics have explored mechanisms for switching the stiffness of a robot structure. The hybrid soft-rigid approach, which combines soft materials and high-rigidity structures, is commonly used to achieve variable stiffness mechanisms.

Design and Dynamic Modeling of Variable Stiffness Joint Actuator Based on Archimedes Spiral

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
Traditional rigid actuators are not applicable to robot applications involving explosive actions. Solutions suggested by previous studies have mainly focused on the concept of stiffness variation, its design and verification, and the explosive actions of

Design of an Elastic Actuation System for a Gait-Assistive Active Orthosis for Incomplete Spinal Cord Injured Subjects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A spinal cord injury severely reduces the quality of life of affected people. Following the injury, limitations of the ability to move may occur due to the disruption of the motor and sensory functions of the nervous system depending on the severity of
