2014 article
Variable recruitment fluidic artificial muscles: modeling and experiments
Bryant, M., Meller, M. A., & Garcia, E. (2014, July). SMART MATERIALS AND STRUCTURES, Vol. 23.
author keywords: McKibben muscle; fluidic artificial muscle; hydraulic artificial muscle; (FMC)-M-2; variable recruitment; muscle bundle; bioinspired; efficiency
TL;DR:
The analysis shows that variable recruitment operation can create an actuator that reduces throttling valve losses to operate more efficiently over a broader range of its force–strain operating space.
