چکیده
Spiders rely on a hydraulic system to stretch their legs but use muscles make flex. The compound drive of hydraulics and muscle makes an integrate dexterous structure with powerful locomotion abilities, which perfectly meets the primary requirements advanced robots. Inspired by this hydraulics-muscle co-drive joint, novel flexible joint actuator was proposed its driving characteristics were preliminarily explored. bio-inspired manifested as double-constrained balloon actuator, fabricated composite process 3D printing casting. To evaluate performance, mathematical model deduced, well finite element analysis (FEA) model. A series experiments rotation angles, forces, efficiencies carried out compared calculations FEA simulations. results show that accuracy two theoretical models can be used assess actuator. test soft arthropod robot joints also implemented, where moving speed reached 22 mm/s feasibility applied demonstrated.

Frontiers in Modeling and Design of Bio-Inspired Armors
Impact behavior of materials and structures is of crucial interest. Indeed, every solid may experience collisions in its “mechanical” life. The topic involves a wide range of engineering applications, even in our everyday life: sports protectors [e.g., helmets, Milne et al. (2014)], sensitive portable electronics (Tempelman et al., 2012), bulletproof body armors (Cuniff, 1999), protection syste...
متن کاملA bio-inspired, high-authority actuator for shape morphing structures
Lightweight structures capable of changing their shape on demand are of interest for a number of applications, including aerospace, power generation, and undersea vehicles. This paper describes a bioinspired cellular metal vertebrate structure which relies on shape memory alloy (SMA) faces to achieve fully reversing shape change. The resulting vertebrate actuators can be combined with flexible ...
متن کاملDesign and Analysis of a Bio-Inspired Wire-Driven Multi-Section Flexible Robot
This paper presents a bio‐inspired wire‐driven multi‐section flexible robot. It is inspired by the snake skeleton and octopus arm muscle arrangements. The robot consists of three sections and each section is made up of several identical vertebras, which are articulated by both spherical joints and a flexible backbone. Each section is driven by two groups of wires, controlling t...
متن کاملDirect adaptive fuzzy control of flexible-joint robots including actuator dynamics using particle swarm optimization
In this paper a novel direct adaptive fuzzy system is proposed to control flexible-joints robot including actuator dynamics. The design includes two interior loops: the inner loop controls the motor position using proposed approach while the outer loop controls the joint angle of the robot using a PID control law. One novelty of this paper is the use of a PSO algorithm for optimizing the contro...
