PDF-(BOOK)-Electroactive Polymer (EAP) Actuators as Artificial Muscles: Reality, Potential,

Electroactive polymer EAP materials with large displacement response are showing great potential The ability to induce large actuation strains such as stretching squeezing and bending makes these resilient materials remarkably similar to biological muscles This book describes the mechanics of natural muscles and how EAP actuators mimic their actions It examines materials EAP function at the molecular level and methods for predicting polymer response to external electric fields The text discusses the future of EAP in robotics entertainment and medicine among other industries.

Actuators are the muscles of robots. If you imagine that the links and the joints are the skeleton of the robot, the actuators act as muscles, which moves or rotate the links to change the configuration of robots. The actuators must have enough power to accelerate and decelerate the links and to carry the loads, yet be light, economical, accurate, responsive, reliable and easy to maintain.. 1.
