Self-sustained movement has the ability to absorb energy from external environment maintain its own movement. In present work, a self-sustained chaotic simple pendulum system featuring an electrothermal responsive liquid crystal elastomers fiber and mass ball is proposed examined. The power-on state achieved in through infusion of metal into this fiber. Which enables shrink, feeding compensate for dissipation resulting damping, thus allowing On basis existing dynamic elastomer model, governing equations are established, behavior under stimulation theoretically explored. Numerical findings suggest that presents three different patterns, namely stationary pattern, oscillatory pattern. Moreover, five parameters elastic coefficient, viscosity gravitational acceleration, shrinkage coefficient strength work can contribute better understanding systems driven by materials offer guidance further exploration applications such as chaos machine, mind-brain analysis.

Active materials possess unique properties of being able to respond autonomously external stimuli, yet realizing and regulating the motion behavior active machines remains a major challenge. Conventional control approaches, including sensor device control, are both complex difficult implement. In contrast, materials--based self-oscillators offer distinct such as periodic ease regulation. Inspired by paddle boats, we have proposed conceptual light-fueled self-paddling boat with photothermally responsive liquid crystal elastomer (LCE)--based motor that operates under steady illumination incorporates an LCE fiber. Based on well-established dynamic model rotation dynamics, equations for governing LCE-steered derived, driving torque LCE-based paddling velocity formulated successively. The numerical results show two modes illumination: static mode mode. regime arises from competition between frictional torque. Moreover, critical conditions required trigger quantitatively examined well significant system parameters affecting torque, angular velocity, velocity. exhibits benefits customizable size untethered ambient powered, which provides valuable insights into design application micromachines, soft robotics, energy harvesters, beyond.

Self-oscillatory systems have great utility in energy harvesting, engines, and actuators due to their ability convert ambient directly into mechanical work. This characteristic makes design implementation highly valuable. Due the complexity of motion process simultaneous influence multiple parameters, computing self-oscillatory proves be challenging, especially when conducting inverse parameter design. To simplify computational process, a combined approach o0f Random Forest (RF) Backpropagation Neural Network (BPNN) algorithms is employed. The example used self-rotating skipping rope made liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) fiber mass block under illumination. Numerically solving governing equations yields precise solutions for rotation frequency LCE various system parameters. A database containing 138,240 sets conditions corresponding frequencies constructed train RF BPNN models. training outcomes indicate that can accurately predict demonstrating high stability efficiency. allows us discover influences distinct parameters on as well. Moreover, it capable design, meaning derive desired combination from given frequency. Through this study, deeper understanding dynamic behavior achieved, offering new theoretical foundation construction.
