Fluid-driven traveling waves in soft robots
Lior Salem, Amir D. Gat, Yizhar Or
Many marine creatures, gastropods, and earthworms generate continuous traveling waves in their bodies for locomotion within marine environments, complex surfaces, and inside narrow…
Understanding Legged Crawling for Soft-Robotics
Benny Gamus, Lior Salem, Amir D. Gat +1
Crawling is a common locomotion mechanism in soft robots and nonskeletal animals. In this work we propose modeling soft-robotic legged locomotion by approximating it with an equiva…
Leveraging viscous peeling in soft actuators and reconfigurable microchannel networks
Lior Salem, Benny Gamus, Yizhar Or +1
The research fields of microfluidics and soft robotics both involve complex small-scale internal channel networks, embedded within a solid structure. This work examines leveraging…
Single-Input Control of Multiple Fluid-Driven Elastic Actuators Via Interaction Between Bi-Stability and Viscosity
Eran Ben-Haim, Lior Salem, Yizhar Or +1
A leading concept in soft robotics actuation, as well as in microfluidics applications such as valves in lab-on-a-chip devices, is applying pressurized flow in cavities embedded wi…
