Featuring an interdisciplinary approach to smart materials and structures, this second edition of \u003cb\u003eArtificial Muscles: Applications of Advanced Polymeric Nanocomposite\u003c\/b\u003es has been fully updated to thoroughly review the latest knowledge of ionic polymeric conductor nanocomposites (IPCNCs), including ionic polymeric metal nanocomposites (IPMNCs) as biomimetic distributed nanosensors, nanoactuators, nanotransducers, nanorobots, artificial muscles, and electrically controllable intelligent polymeric network structures. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAuthored by one of the founding fathers of the field, the book introduces fabrication and manufacturing methods of several electrically and chemically active ionic polymeric sensors, actuators, and artificial muscles, as well as a new class of electrically active polymeric nanocomposites and artificial muscles. It also describes a few apparatuses for modeling and testing various artificial muscles to show the viability of chemoactive and electroactive muscles. It presents the theories, modeling, and numerical simulations of ionic polymeric artificial muscles' electrodynamics and chemodynamics and features current industrial and medical applications of IPMNCs. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy covering the fabrication techniques of and novel developments in advanced polymeric nanocomposites, this second edition continues to provides an accessible yet solid foundation to the subject while stimulating further research.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKey features: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eFully up to date with the latest cutting-edge discoveries in the field \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eAuthored by a world expert in the subject area \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eExplores the exciting and growing topic of smart materials in medicine\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eMohsen Shahinpoor is Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Maine and a leading expert in artificial muscles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mohsen Shahinpoor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367857901\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367857905\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/31\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.04lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.94d","brand":"Mohsen Shahinpoor","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48136033009919,"sku":"9780367857905","price":255.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_60502974-3a6a-431b-b2c1-bc73d21a6555.jpg?v=1770160063","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/artificial-muscles-mohsen-shahinpoor-9780367857905","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
