Realization of a Simultaneous Position-Stiffness Controllable Antagonistic Joint Driven by Twisted-Coiled Polymer Actuators Using Model Predictive Control

Stiffness adjustability is one of the key characteristics that help humans achieve safe and reliable motions. This paper aims to realize the simultaneous position-stiffness control of an antagonistic joint driven by a type of super-coiled polymer (SCP) artificial muscles, made from a combination of...
