Abstract:With improved flexible robot elongation rate, bending angle and movement flexibility in space target acquisition, disaster search and rescue, unknown environment detection and other fields, existing soft robots face challenges. Yoshimura tubular origami shows good application performance in axial expansion ratio. However, due to the characteristics of nonrigid folding and a negative Poisson's ratio, the axial elongation length and bending angle of the Yoshimura tubular origami mechanism are limited. Annelids s… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
