Modeling, simulation, and control of a polypyrrole-based conducting polymer actuator
A detailed model was developed for an ionic electro-active polymer (EAP) actuator. The electrical and chemical domains of the system were modeled using a simple electrical circuit. Ionic charge storage within the polymer was described using a linear reticulated model. This model improves upon the …

Design of flexible actuators using electro-active polymers and CPG-based control strategies
… concepts and require-ments for using dielectric electroactive polymers (EAP) for designing of exible actuators and manipulators. A model-guided approach to design a bio-inspired exible actuator mod-ule is presented analyzed. Further, mathematical modelling for Central Pattern Generators (CPGs) is …
