| Research Abstract |
Contractive force generated by electrical current in a coil embedded in high magnetic susceptibility and low elastic media presents a basic idea of magnetic soft actuators. By using a magnetic sheet between coils the actuator contracted by the strain of ca. 12%. A magnetic soft actuator using rheological magnetic fluid generated the deformation of 2. 5 mm with the force of 0. 4 kPa at the magnetic field of 32 mT.
