Abstract :
Electroactive polymers are attracting much attention as sensors and actuators, but control algorithms need to address their non-repeatability to enhance their practicality. In this Letter, classical control is revisited with the co-evolutionary augmented Lagrangian method to develop a simple yet robust controller for an ionic electroactive polymer strip.
