About
Yu Feng Goh is a leading researcher in soft robotics and dielectric elastomer actuators, with a focus on developing compliant, muscle-like systems that push the boundaries of conventional rigid robotics. His most-cited work, "Electrically-Induced Actuation of Acrylic-Based Dielectric Elastomers in Excess of 500% Strain" (2018, 47 citations), demonstrates a groundbreaking achievement in soft actuation—enabling over 500% strain in dielectric elastomers, far surpassing typical limits. This contribution directly addresses a core challenge in biomimetic robotics: replicating the high deformation and compliance of biological muscles. Goh’s research has significant implications for creating safer, more adaptable robots for medical devices, prosthetics, and human-robot interaction. By merging materials science with electromechanical design, his work has inspired new approaches to soft actuators, earning recognition for its potential to transform industries reliant on delicate manipulation. With a growing citation impact, Goh continues to advance the frontier of soft matter engineering, bridging the gap between artificial and biological motion.
