Investigation to the characteristics of pneumatic bending joint

Yang Qing

Abstract

The relationship between the bending angular degree of the artificial joint and the pressure of compressed air is first established by using the theory of elasticity mechanics. Then, the mathematical model of the system is built up and the pulse response of the system is theoretically investigated though numerical simulation. The artificial joint is at last experimentally tested and it is concluded that the joint has a quick response to the input of signal and fits to simulate the bending or stretching motion of human join.
