Soft Actuator Materials

Soft Actuator Materials is a class of responsive materials that constitute the structural and functional basis of soft actuators by exhibiting controllable deformation or motion in response to external stimuli, distinguished from conventional actuation materials by their intrinsic compliance, flexibility, and ability to undergo large strain without fracture.
