Model to Model: Understanding the Venus Flytrap Snapping Mechanism and Transferring it to a 3D-printed Bistable Soft Robotic Demonstrator

Maartje H. M. Wermelink, Renate Sachse, Sebastian Kruppert +2

The Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula) does not only serve as the textbook model for a carnivorous plant, but also has long intrigued both botanists and engineers with its rapidly c…

Constitutive Models for Active Skeletal Muscle: Review, Comparison, and Application in a Novel Continuum Shoulder Model

Laura Engelhardt, Renate Sachse, Rainer Burgkart +1

The shoulder joint is one of the functionally and anatomically most sophisticated articular systems in the human body. Both complex movement patterns and the stabilization of the h…

A variational formulation for motion design of adaptive compliant structures

Renate Sachse, Manfred Bischoff

Adaptive structures are characterized by their ability to adjust their geometrical and other properties to changing loads or requirements during service. This contribution deals wi…
