This book provides in-depth coverage of smart materials, including
electroactive polymers (EAPs), synthetic muscle, pneumatic
artificial muscle, soft pneumatics, hydro-muscle, and other
cutting-edge transformational smart material technologies. It looks
at ways smart materials respond to stimuli, such as electricity,
pressure, temperature, magnetism, or light. State-of-the-art
developments in EAP based actuation and pneumatics are covered,
including nanotechnology, soft robotics, EAP considerations for
NASA applications and thermal control of satellites, control of
mirrors using dielectric elastomeric actuators, and biomimetic
design and function in robotics and prosthetics. A detailed
analysis of the challenges of smart materials on Earth and in space
is included, with an interview about considerations and training
for Missions to Moon and Mars. This book is a must-read within the
smart material and space communities, from tech savvy students to
industry professionals.
