Description

A variety of soft actuators has so far been developed not only from the fundamental
viewpoint of basic material science, chemistry, physics, and biology but also from
the engineering viewpoint for the practical applications to light-weight, low-cost,
no-noise, less-pollution, and high-efficiency micro- and macro-artificial muscles
and soft robotic systems. This book “Soft Actuators: Materials, Modeling, Applications,
and Future Perspectives” reviews current and comprehensive research and
development of soft actuators, and encompasses interdisciplinary studies of materials
science and chemistry, mechanics, electronics, robotics, and bioscience. The
topics of this book update the preceding book (in Japanese) entitled “Soft Actuators
which Drive Future Technologies -Recent R&D Activities Focused on Polymers
and Biomaterials-” edited by Prof. Yoshihito Osada (Riken) and Prof. Takahisa
Taguchi (AIST) published by CMC Publishing Co., Ltd. in 2010.
