- add\_circle\_outline do\_not\_disturb\_on Abstract
- [ descriptionPublisher's Version](https://doi.org/10.1177/0278364925135884)
 
Nearly all soft wearable robots rely on textiles to distribute actuation forces to the human body; however, the mechanical hysteresis of these materials significantly complicates device control. If not properly accounted for, this history-dependent...
