Recently, a new type of actuators called artificial muscles based on twisted and coiled polymer fibers and mainly made of fishing line or sewing thread has attracted a lot of attention. If these actuators are actuated by heat, they can contract along their length and produce linear displacement. The low cost of production, silent operation, high po...
In this study, 8 samples of thermally activated muscle-like actuators were designed and fabricated by twisting and coiling fishing lines made from nylon threads with diameters of 0.5 and 0.8 mm. In the first step, the empirical relation of the actuators' final length with their initial yarn length was investigated. Then, to release the residual str...
In this paper, a thermally activated actuators were designed and mechanically analyzed. The actuator is materialized by twisted and coiled a fishing line and annealing it in a specified thermal condition. Thereafter, its thermo-mechanical behavior is tested under a constant stretch load and variant temperature, conditioned by a current of hot water...
