1. 1. Dynamic Modelling of a Fluidic Muscle with a Comparison of Hysteresis Approaches

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Author : Tess Antonsson; [2023]
   Keywords : Mechatronics; Soft Actuators; Pneumatic Artificial Muscles; Dynamic Modelling; Hysteresis; Maxwell-Slip Model; Generalised Bouc-Wen Model; Mekatronik; Mjuka Ställdon; Pneumatiska Artificiella Muskler; Dynamisk Modellering; Hysteres; Maxwell-Slip Modell; Generaliserad Bouc-Wen Modell;

   Abstract : n recent years, there has been a surge in interest and research into the utilisation of soft actuators within the field of robotics, driven by the novel capabilities of their inherently compliant material. One such actuator is the Pneumatic Artificial Muscle (PAM) which offers a high power-to-mass ratio, compliance, safety, and biological mimicry when compared to their traditional counterparts.

3. 2. Inchworm Actuating SoftRobotic Belt

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

   Author : Jialun Liu; [2022]
   Keywords : Soft robotics; Pneumatic artificial muscles; Locomotion;

   Abstract :  Soft robotics is an emerging research subject showing great promise for applications where traditional and rigid robotics is limited, for example, creating stroking sensation by using soft robotics. The purpose of this master's thesis project is to convey caress by designing and manufacturing a wearable haptic soft belt with locomotion. READ MORE

4. 3. Development, Modelling and Investigation of a Robotic Exoskeleton for Astronaut Back Support

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

   Author : Evert Häggman; [2021]
   Keywords : Exoskeleton; Musculoskeletal Disorders; Biorobotics; Astronaut;

   Abstract : Musculoskeletal disorders, specifically low back pain, has been well documented andreported by astronauts throughout the space exploration era. Statistics from astronautmemoirs states that 52-68% of astronauts experience moderate to severe lower backpain after prolonged spaceflights. READ MORE

5. 4. Online Variable Recruitment for Pneumatic Artificial Muscles with Springs

   University essay from KTH/Mekatronik

   Author : Anthony Loccisano; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Pneumatic artificial muscles (PAMs) have gained attention in the realm of soft robotics for their high power to weight ratio, low manufacturing cost, low weight, and relatively high compliance. This makes them appear as a great candidate for exoskeletons. READ MORE
