The reporter learned from the University of Science and Technology of China that Professor Zhang Shiwu and Associate Researcher Jin Hu from the School of Engineering Science of the school have cooperated with their collaborators to propose a liquid metal artificial muscle (LMAM) based on electrochemical methods to change the surface tension of liquid metal to imitate muscles.
Albatross can fly continuously for dozens of days, and the fastest speed of cheetah hunting is close to the speed of a car on the highway.
Gallium-based liquid metal has some characteristics of both liquid and solid.
The researchers optimized the driving parameters and the series-parallel connection of the driving units to improve the performance of artificial muscles.
The research confirmed the excellent drive performance at low input voltage, laying the foundation for the future development of robotic systems based on low-power drives
