Researchers developed a dual cross-linked magnetic polymer that combines high stretchability with record work density.

A research team affiliated with UNIST has introduced a novel, high-performance, and thermally stable polymer-based ...

Fluid robot motion is the result of design choices among five options including pneumatics and strain wave gears.

This review innovatively proposes the use of electrospinning to fabricate electroactive fibrous scaffolds, which mimic the structure of the extracellular matrix while providing electrical activity, ...

Since its discovery, piezoelectricity has been a cornerstone of electromechanical energy conversion, yet its biomedical potential has remained largely unexploited. Traditional piezoelectrics, such as ...

Microporous organic polymers (MOPs) are composed entirely of covalently linked organic molecules. These materials are characterized by their high surface areas, permanent microporosity, and structural ...

An underwater robot developed by NTNU. This study first establishes a cylindrical dynamic model of dielectric elastomers to deeply analyze the deformation behavior of DEs under the action of electric ...

Abstract: Specialized propulsors for naval applications have numerous opportunities in terms of research, design, and fabrication of an appropriate propulsor. One of the most important components of ...
