Abstract: Beam structures are widely used in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) sensors and actuators, and modeling of pull-in behavior of beams subjected to electrostatic force is essential for ...

Abstract: In this paper, we present an embedded shape-sensing method for soft robotics. Soft actuators and structures are paramount for safe human–robot interaction and are of interest in biomimetics, ...

A microstructure-dependent nonlinear third-order beam theory which accounts for through-thickness power-law variation of a two-constituent material is developed using Hamilton's principle. The ...

Axially-functionally graded materials are/ types of traditional composite materials in which the mechanical and physical properties are gradually varied from one end to the other. They were used ...
