Development of an annelid-like peristaltic crawling soft robot using dielectric elastomer actuators.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics Jun 9, 2020
The annelid, which consists of several identical segments, exploits its soft structures to move effectively in complex natural environments. Elongation and shortening of different segments produce a reverse peristaltic wave while retractable setae ge...

Energetic analysis and experiments of earthworm-like locomotion with compliant surfaces.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics Feb 4, 2016
The energy consumption of worm robots is composed of three parts: heat losses in the motors, internal friction losses of the worm device and mechanical energy locomotion requirements which we refer to as the cost of transport (COT). The COT, which is...
