Soft Robotics: Design of Multifunctional Soft Doming Actuator for Soft Machines (Adv. Mater. Technol. 7/2018)
Source abstract
Abstract
By exploiting the doming deformation in bilayer circular disks, Y. Tang and J. Yin design a soft doming actuator that switches from a flat to dome-like configuration under pneumatic actuation. In article 1800069, they demonstrate how the multifunctional doming actuator can be utilized for underwater swimming, adhesion, and gripping by controlling the doming cavity volume and bending angle at edges.
