Abstract Artificial muscles that can reproduce the functions and biomimetic motions of natural are widely used to construct soft robots with applications in various fields. However, it is still challenging develop stimuli-responsive artificial multiple-mode actuation. Inspired by forearm muscles, we propose a new type actuation using liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs), named FILAMs (forearm muscle-inspired LCE-based muscles). The proposed consist active LCE driving units, passive silicone...
Abstract Recent advances in soft materials enable robots to possess safer human-machine interaction ways and adaptive motions, yet there remain substantial challenges develop universal driving power sources that can achieve performance trade-offs between actuation, speed, portability, reliability untethered applications. Here, we introduce a class of fully electronic pumps utilize electrical energy pump liquid through electrons ions migration mechanism. Soft combine good portability with...

High-energy shot peening (HESP) is an effective way to achieve surface nanocrystallization modification of additive manufactured metal parts, significantly improving their mechanical properties. Yet, there still a lack deep understanding the evolution mechanism metals. For that, this study focuses on selective laser melted 316L stainless steel treated by HESP treatment. The detailed microstructural characteristics are investigated via optical microscope (OM) and transmission electron...
Emerging soft systems, including robots or wearable devices, actuated by fluidic means facilitate a series of inherent benefits, safe human-robot interactions, lower costs, and adaptability in geometry for manipulating delicate objects. However, existing systems are facing critical barrier: how to get rid traditional rigid, bulky, redundant fluid power/control components as well develop their own flexible, portable, universal implementing fully multi-circuit, untethered autonomous systems....
Abstract Marine creatures achieve effective survival in unstructured ocean environments via fast swimming or transparent camouflage. Aqueous soft robots, capable of reproducing features marine creatures, have the advantages safe biological interaction, high environmental adaptation, and noise‐free when compared with traditional rigid robots. Yet, there exists a persistent challenge to develop both energy‐efficient aqueous robots that can better underwater operation exploration. Enlightened...
Cam-lobe radial-piston hydraulic motors are widely used in large heavy-duty machinery as direct-drive components of systems. Due to their extremely high output torque and power density, the wet brake equipped with necessary achieve ultra-high braking a compact space.

In approach, process could be divided...
Laser cladding is an advanced surface engineering technology capable of producing Ni-based coatings with high wear resistance. Incorporating graphene (Gr) into has great potential for improving the tribological properties component surface. To date, effects Ni-decorated Gr (Ni@Gr) content on Ni@Gr/Ni-based composite and their mechanism have yet to be fully understood. In this study, varying Ni@Gr contents (0, 2, 4, 6 wt%) were prepared by laser cladding, different microstructure investigated...
Cam-lobe radical-piston hydraulic motors can achieve ultrahigh power rotary output (up to megawatts), which are widely used in tunnel boring machines, dredgers, and other high-end equipment. In these applications, always operate complex drastically changing conditions, causing their key roller-piston friction pairs be vulnerable wear failure.
