Preliminary analysis on generated jet pressure from ionic polymer composite actuated radial contraction using balloon manometry technique

Contractile thruster has become a trend for underwater robot propulsion because of its prospective and advantages. However, it is difficult to determine the performance of the generated jet pressure from the small thruster. Thus, in this research an analysis was carried out to observe the radial con...
