Applied System Innovation, Volume 5, Issue 6

2022 December - 24 articles

Cover Story: Soft robotics is a fascinating research field that fuses material sciences, robotics, and biology to create new types of robots that enhance human–robot interaction, agility, and adaptability. The field of soft robotics is still faced with a set of key challenges. Among them, overcoming the rich nonlinearity in soft materials to realize precise and reliable control is particularly crucial. In this paper, a nonlinear dynamic model of the resonant-impact dielectric elastomer actuator (DEA) system is developed by considering the multiple nonlinearities, viscoelasticity, and electromechanical coupling, which will provide guidance for the performance optimization of resonance-impact DEA systems and their applications.
