- A novel fabrication of ionic polymer–metal composite membrane actuator capable of 3-dimensional kinematic motions (2011, background): “This is to be expected as the ions in the IPMC cannot move very rapidly [20] and the hydrodynamic forces acting on the fin damp the high frequency vibration [7].”
- Underwater thrust and power generation using flexible piezoelectric composites: an experimental investigation toward self-powered swimmer-sensor platforms (2011, methodology): “Due to their silent operation, ease of fabrication, ease of application, and scalability, smart materials such as ionic polymer–metal composites (IPMCs) [4–7], shape-memory alloys (SMAs) [8–10], and fiber-based piezoelectric composites [11, 12] have attracted growing interest for biomimetic locomoti”
- Fast-moving soft electronic fish (2017, background): “Typical stimuli-responsive actuators include ionic polymer metal composites (IPMCs) (21, 22), dielectric elastomers (DEs) (23–26), shape memory alloys (SMAs) (10), responsive hydrogels (27, 28), pneumatic structures (13), chemical reaction– inflated fluidic networks (20), and living cells (14, 15).”
