Engineering aspects of polypyrrole actuators and their application in active catheters
Polypyrrole has shown potential as an electrochemically driven artificial muscle. It has also been studied as an electromechanical sensor. Despite its potential as an engineering material, its actuation and sensing behaviours have not been fully characterized and modelled. In this thesis, polypyrrol...
