Development and characterization of muscle-based actuators for self-stabilizing swimming biorobots.

Lab on a chip
Biorobots that harness the power generated by living muscle cells have recently gained interest as an alternative to traditional mechanical robots. However, robust and reliable operation of these biorobots still remains a challenge. Toward this end, ...

Poroelastic Foams for Simple Fabrication of Complex Soft Robots.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)
Open-celled, elastomeric foams allow the simple design of fully 3D pneumatic soft machines using common forming techniques. This is demonstrated through the fabrication of simple actuators and an entirely soft, functional fluid pump formed in the sha...

Toward a new generation of electrically controllable hygromorphic soft actuators.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)
An innovative processing strategy for fabricating soft structures that possess electric- and humidity-driven active/passive actuation capabilities along with touch- and humidity-sensing properties is reported. The intrinsically multifunctional materi...

Programmable and reprocessable multifunctional elastomeric sheets for soft origami robots.

Science robotics
Tunable, soft, and multifunctional robots are contributing to developments in medical and rehabilitative robotics, human-machine interaction, and intelligent home technology. A key aspect of soft robot fabrication is the ability to use flexible and e...

[Determination of flavor compounds in foxtail millet wine by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry coupled with headspace solid phase microextraction].

Se pu = Chinese journal of chromatography
To comprehensively understand flavor compounds and aroma characteristics of foxtail millet wine, extraction conditions were optimized with 85 μm polyacrylate (PA), 100 μm polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), 75 μm carboxen (CAR)/PDMS and 50/30 μm divinylbenz...
