Research Abstract |
This paper presents a method to improve the IPMC relaxation phenomenon. To reduce the relaxation phenomenon, I propose a method of by coordinating work of multiple IPMC actuators. I propose two types of controller design ; fluctuation type and switching type. Simulation and experiment at result confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method.
