... oscillations pistons pneumatic actuators power control pressure control robot dynamics Pneumatic actuation presents a number of features not seen in typical robotic actuators. These features include a high mass specific power density relative to electromagnetic actuators, inherent compliance...

.... The concept is developed for a fluid power application, but is not restricted to fluid-type devices. Practical realizations of this concept will allow downsizing of power supplies as well as reduced power consumption for any particular application. mechanical control equipment power control fluid...
