According to its developers, this transition — much like rubber transforming into steel — occurs when the artificial muscle ...

A research team affiliated with UNIST has unveiled a new type of artificial muscle that can seamlessly transition from soft ...

The stiffened artificial muscle can support up to 5 kilograms (11 pounds) — roughly “4,000 times its own weight.” The muscle ...

Abstract Soft artificial muscles offer transformative potential in robotics, wearable electronics, and biomedical devices due to their light weight ...

(A) A summary plot illustrating the elastic modulus range of the artificial muscle compared to representative biological tissues, highlighting the biomimetic mechanical properties of the artificial ...

Engineers developed a method to grow artificial muscle tissue that twitches and flexes in multiple, coordinated directions. These tissues could be useful for building 'biohybrid' robots powered by ...

(Nanowerk News) We move thanks to coordination among many skeletal muscle fibers, all twitching and pulling in sync. While some muscles align in one direction, others form intricate patterns, helping ...

The study, led by Dr. Cheng-Hui Li from the School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Nanjing University, and Dr. Pengfei Zheng from the Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, ...

A research team co-led by a physician-scientist at the University of Arizona College of Medicine – Tucson's Sarver Heart Center found that a subset of artificial heart patients can regenerate heart ...
