Characterization of Control-Dependent Variable Stiffness Behavior in Discrete Muscle-Like Actuators
This paper presents the modeling, characterization and validation for a discrete muscle-like actuator system composed of individual on–off motor units with complex dynamics inherent to the architecture. The dynamics include innate hardening behavior in the actuator with increased length. A series el...
