摘要：
We present a compliant single degree-of-freedom pneumatic actuator with large bending capabilities. Several actuator designs are compared and validated against the suggested actuation model. Repeatability, some dynamic properties and the affect of external loads are examined as well. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
