Design and Analysis of Biomimetic Medusa Robots
… of SMA wire is not enough to mimic the bell contraction of jellyfish. In order to resolve this problem, a beam-shape composite actuator using SMA wires as the active component, termed as BISMAC, was designed to provide large curvature. The BISMAC design was inspired by rowing jellyfish …

Design and Development of a Bio-inspired Robotic Jellysh that Features Ionic Polymer Metal Composites Actuators
… are used as actuators in order to contract the bell and thus propel the jellyfish robot. This research focuses on translating the evolutionary successes of the natural species into a jellyfish robot that mimics the geometry, the swimming style, and the bell deformation cycle of the natural …
