Fabrication, Apparatus, and Characterization of Mesoporous Carbon-Nickel Silver Powder-Poly (Vinyl Alcohol) Coated Mandrel-coiled Twisted and Coiled Polymer Fishing Line (TCPFL) Artificial Muscles for Enhanced Performance

A computer program product residing on a computer readable storage medium having a plurality of instructions stored thereon which, when executed across one or more processors, causes at least a portion of the one or more processors to perform operations for creating a mandrel-coiled twisted and coiled polymer fishing line (TCPFL) actuator comprising:

• fabricating a plurality of mandrel-coiled TCPFL muscles, wherein fabricating the plurality of mandrel-coiled TCPFL muscles includes;
• synthesizing mesoporous C-NiAg-PVA solution;
• and
• coating the TCPFL with the mesoporous C-NiAg-PVA solution.
