Bioinspired Hydro- and Hydrothermally Responsive Tubular Soft Actuators

Bioinspired Hydro- and Hydrothermally Responsive Tubular Soft Actuators

Soft actuators made of thermoresponsive polymers have great potential for intelligent robotics and biomedical devices due to their reversible deformation capability in response to temperature fluctuations. However, they are constrained by a predefined phase transition temperature, limited directiona...
