A total of five independent experiments are carried out in which the maximum applied compression stretch and the stretch rate are varied. In addition, the learning performance of the iCANN is investigated. Training is first carried out in each of the five experiments and then in each of four of the five experiments.</p> <p>The experimental data are taken from the literature:</p> <p>Van Loocke, M., Lyons, C.
