Formal Proofs for Nonlinear Optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We present a formally verified global optimization framework. Given a semialgebraic or transcendental function $f$ and a compact semialgebraic domain $K$, we use the nonlinear maxplus template approximation algorithm to provide a certified lower bound of

Edible Pneumatic Battery for Sustained and Repeated Robot Actuation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents an edible energy source and valve system to power soft, pneumatically driven edible robots. A chemical reaction between sodium bicarbonate and citric acid generates carbon dioxide gas, and a pressure‐triggered edible valve enables self‐repetitive motion of the edible actuator.

Unraveling Energy Flow Mechanisms in Semiconductors by Ultrafast Spectroscopy: Germanium as a Case Study

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A multi‐technique pump‐probe setup capable of performing both transient reflectivity and time‐resolved Raman spectroscopy after ultrafast excitation, provides a comprehensive understanding of ultrafast electronic and phononic processes. Distinct decay rates for the temperature, frequency, and linewidth of the phonon mode in germanium are observed ...

Dead Matter, Living Machines: Repurposing Crustaceans' Abdomen Exoskeleton for Bio‐Hybrid Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Crustacean exoskeletons, repurposed from food waste, are engineered into sustainable bending actuators combining biotic structure with synthetic control. The augmented exoskeletons achieve rapid and robust motion with lightweight body and can be used as part of robotic manipulators, grippers and swimmers.
