A FEM-Experimental Approach for the Development of a Conceptual Linear Actuator Based on Tendril’s Free Coiling

<div>Free coiling of the G-cell model, exemplifying total displacement plots: at (a) 32%, (b) 52%, and (c) the final stage of the analysis. The underlying color bar indicates the overall displacement, in mm, ranging from blue to red as the movement of the section increases.</div>
