  1. 1. An evaluation of materials and processes suitable for manufacturing micro HASEL-actuators

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Mikrosystemteknik

    Author : Anna Lindgren; [2021]
    Keywords : HASEL-actuator; paraffin blend;

    Abstract : HASEL-actuators use dielectric liquids and compliant shells as their media. This type of actuatorwould suit the actuators used as fins for soft milli robots (SOMIRO). These robots are going tobe used in aquaponic crops for studying its impact on the environment to help the farmersimprove their crops. READ MORE

  3. 2. Investigation and Evaluation of Pump Types for a Liquid Metal Jet X-Ray Source

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Avd.)

    Author : Matilda Svensson; [2020]
    Keywords : pumps; pump types; liquid galinstan; metal jet; x-ray source; pumpar; pumptyper; flytande galinstan; metaljetstråle; röntgenkälla;

    Abstract : Since Wilhelm C. Röntgen discovered the x-rays in 1895 little has been done to improve the x-ray technology. In 2003 a group of scientists at KTH Royal Institute of Technology suggested a new type of x-ray source, namely a liquid metal jet x-ray source. The solid anode in the original source was changed to a liquid metal jet anode. READ MORE
