“…Thus, complex mechanisms are required to control the deployment, adding to the system mass and risk of deployment failure. Bistable booms can be designed in such a way that their deployment is more deterministic, and the mechanisms required to constrain the coiled booms are lighter and less complicated [5,14,22]. Theoretical models of composite booms have been developed to predict their natural coiled radius (also called fold radius) in the stowed state [2,13,8,16].…”

“…In the recent development, the applications of CFC are not exclusively in the aerospace fields but also included in different applications such as automotive, buildings and bridges, blades, and different sectors. The advantages of the CFC that lightweight, high strength to weight ratio, corrosion resistance, easy to assembly and can be used in wider temperatures were the reason why CFC is used although the price is still high [9][10][11][12][13]. The following description of the selected CFC papers is shown and described.…”

Composite materials gain huge interest from researchers due to its advantages and flexibility. Strength and properties that can be adjusted based on the needs and applications is a specific advantage of composite materials. Since these advantages can be applied in many fields, composite materials often clustered in multifunctional materials. This study aims to lists and classified the progressive development of multifunctional composite materials that found and already proven can be applied in many applications. This study also gives data that can be driven to readers from different backgrounds and used it for further purposes. The results are shown that the progressive development of multifunctional composite materials not only one step forward in the technical achievements but also the energy and environment-related to human ecosystems.

“…Intelligent composite structures, such as bistable composite structures [ 1 ], deployable composite structures [ 2 ] and composite grid structures [ 3 ], have good load-bearing capacity, deformability, and light weight [ 4 ], which are used in many advanced engineering fields. In particular, the bistable structure can maintain two stable configurations without requiring a continuous power source, which has attracted more and more attention from researchers all over the world, and it has been proposed for the development of deformable structures in the aerospace field [ 5 ] as having great potential.…”

This paper proposes a multi-objective optimization model for anti-symmetric cylindrical shell in the bionic gripper structure. Here, the response surface method is used to establish multiple surrogate models of the anti-symmetric cylindrical shell, and the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-II (NSGA-II) is used to optimize the design space of the anti-symmetric cylindrical shell; the design points of the anti-symmetric cylindrical shell are verified by experimental methods. The optimization goals are that the first steady state transition load (the transition process of the bionic gripper structure from the open state to the closed state) of the anti-symmetric cylindrical shell is minimized, and the second steady state transition load (the transition process of the bionic gripper structure from the closed state to the open state) is the largest. At the same time, in order to prevent stable instability caused by stress concentration in the second steady state of the anti-symmetric cylindrical shell, the maximum principal plane stress is given as the constraint condition. The validity of the optimization results is verified by finite element and experimental methods. Due to the stable transition load of the anti-symmetric cylindrical shell being significantly larger than that of the orthogonal laminated plate, therefore, the anti-symmetric cylindrical shell has potential application prospects in the application of deformable structures and bionic structures that require composite functions such as having light weight, high strength, and large clamping force. The novelty of this paper lies in the multi-objective optimization of the application of the antisymmetric bistable cylindrical shell in the bionic gripper structure.
