Electro-thermally Controllable Twisted Coiled Actuators (TCA) Using Nylon Line

Location USA
Twisting-coiled Actuator (TCA) have numerous appealing properties such as huge energy density, large stroke, and large contractions. Thermally incited muscles manufactured from nylon/polymer can be utilized in robotics, biomedical gadgets, and energy harvesting devices. To optimally make it a promising artificial muscle for robotic and medical applications, it is important to fabricate and characterize them effectively. TCA can exhibits the adaptability of the artificial muscles behavior in general. Notwithstanding, this flexibility accompanies a need to see how the unique ways of the fabrication can be accomplished with these novel actuators and how they compromise in execution. In this work, we propose a Twisting-coiled Actuator to create an artificial muscles. The proposed actuator consists of fishing line in 0.6mm diameter. The fishing line is coiled into coils to create a twisting-coiled actuator. Experimental are conducted with a hot water to characterize the actuator. The findings of our experiments highlight essential results related to the response of these artificial muscles such as large displacement, stored elastic energy, and repeatability

A pressure gradient sensor inspired by the canal neuromasts of fish

The lateral line system is the flow-sensing organ of fishes, which consists of arrays of flow sensors, known as neuromasts, with hair cells embedded inside a gel-like structure called cupula. There are two types of neuromasts: the superficial ones, which extend from the skin and respond directly to the local velocity, and the canal ones, which are located in recessed canals under the skin and tend to respond to the flow pressure gradient. Inspired by the canal system of fish lateral lines, we propose a pressure gradient sensor integrating an ionic-polymer metal composite (IPMC) sensor with a 3D-printed canal filled with a viscous fluid. Unlike the biological counterpart that has open ends on the surface of the body, the proposed canal has two pores that are covered with a latex membrane, which prevents the canal fluid from mixing with the ambient fluid. Experimental results involving a dipole source show that the proposed sensor is able to capture the pressure difference across the two pores, and the viscosity of the canal fluid has a pronounced effect on the sensitivity of the device. Preliminary finite-element simulation results are also presented to provide insight into the experimental observations.
