Design and modeling of a soft robotic surface with hyperelastic material (2018)
Journal Article
While most existing soft robots have tentacle-like morphology, this paper extends the morphology of a soft robot from a curve to a surface. The presented robotic surface is fabricated using hyperelastic silicone material, and its morphology and defor...

Modelling an acuated large deformation soft continuum robot surface undergoing external forces using a lumped-mass approach (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Precise actuation of continuum surfaces in combination with continuum robotic arms that undergo large deformation is of high interest in soft robotics but of limited model-based study to date. This work develops this area towards enabling the robust...

Optimal integration of pneumatic artificial muscles with vacuum-jammed surfaces to characterise a novel reconfigurable moulding system (2018)
Journal Article
Producing mould tooling systems is a considerable proportion of manufacturing cost and time, especially for low volume productions. Producing a reconfigurable mould to shape surfaces into complex geometries with multiple curvatures would obviate the...
