Playing Nature's Game with Artificial Muscles
Abstract
Artificial muscles able to match or exceed the remarkable performance of natural muscles are needed for artificial and damaged hearts, artificial limbs, humanoid robots, and bird- or insect-like air vehicles that fly by flapping wings. In his Perspective, [Baughman][1] compares the performance of present high-stroke artificial muscles with that of natural muscles and proposes new strategies for improving the artificial muscles. One promising approach is to make an artificial muscle that directly converts the chemical energy in a fuel to mechanical energy. [1]: http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/full/308/5718/63

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
