The high cost of powerful, large-stroke, high-stress artificial muscles has combined with performance limitations such as low cycle life, hysteresis, and low efficiency to restrict applications. [...] Key Result Large-stroke tensile actuation was theoretically and experimentally shown to result from torsional actuation.Expand Abstract
