The objective of this paper is to present the methods of development and study of control law of rodless pneumatic actuator with fuzzy regulator in order to improve the accuracy of the pneumatic drive carriage positioning. The basis for improving the accuracy of positioning of the pneumatic actuator is the Intelligent Control System.

This paper reports on existing and novel transducers for improved quantitative investigations of the levels of applied pressures and pressure gradients produced on human limbs by non-pneumatic tourniquet straps, and by non-pneumatic elastic bandages and elastic rolls when used as tourniquets, for comparison to benchmark data for pneumatic tourniquet cuffs commonly used in surgery at present.

This study deals with group robots forming a mechanical structure. In this paper, we address the concrete motion mechanisms of the robots. Each robot has a cubic shape with pneumatic actuators. It rotates with a corner of the robot as an axis. To realize the movement, we propose two kinds of mechanical devices. One is a stabilization mechanism that the pneumatic actuator stably forms an arched ...
