Abstract: An efficient approach for improving the predictive understanding of dynamic mechanical system variability is developed in this work. The approach requires low model assessment time through ...
Abstract: Inflated-beam soft robots, such as tip-everting vine robots, can control curvature by contracting one beam side via pneumatic actuation. This work develops a general finite element modeling ...
