Deployable vortex generators for low Reynolds numbers applications powered by cephalopods inspired artificial muscles

This paper proposes deployable vortex generators (VGs) powered by twisted spiral artificial muscles (TSAMs). TSAMs take inspiration from cephalopods’ papillae and can protrude out of plane upon electro-thermal actuation with an output strain of 2000% and an input voltage of 0.2 V/cm. Unlike passive...
