Towards Advanced Intelligent and Perceptive Soft Grippers
Implementing soft yet strong and intelligent soft grippers request innovative and creative solutions in designing soft bodies and seamlessly integrating actuated systems with hierarchical sensing. This review systematically analyses soft grippers with a deep understanding of core components, from fundamental design principles to actuation and sensing ...

Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Knowledge about algorithms, discrete mathematics and number theoryStart with a number. Then at each step, if n is even, compute n/2, and if n is odd, compute 3n+1. So far as anyone can tell, the resulting sequence always eventually reaches 1. But despite

Diatom‐Inspired 1D Immobile Robots Capable of 2D Collective Mobility
This study presents a diatom‐inspired robotic system that explores group coordination through limited physical interactions. The researchers tune groups of Barbots, simple robotic agents that possess neither individual mobility nor explicit communication capabilities, to achieve complex and adaptive collaboration based on environmental light.

Supercritical Hénon-type equation with a forcing term
This article is concerned with the structure of solutions to the elliptic problem for a Hénon-type equation with a forcing term: −Δu=α(x)up+κμ,inRN,u>0,inRN,(Pκ)\hspace{11.3em}-\Delta u=\alpha \left(x){u}^{p}+\kappa \mu ,\hspace{1.0em}\hspace{0.1em}\text{

Theme and variations on the 3N+1 problem [PDF]
We investigate the dynamics of the Collatz map over various domains. In particular, cycles will be studied, and conditions for their existence will be provided.Till de absolut mest fascinerande problemen inom matematiken hör de som är enkla att formulera

The 3n+1 problem: a partition of interest
A mapping conjugate to the Collatz mapping seems to imply that $\N=\{1,2,3,\ldots\}$ is partitioned in a trivial loop $\{1\}$ and `strings' that are ordered subsets of $\{\N \setminus 1\}$ that run from an element of $\{2+3\0\}$ to an element of $\{3+4\0\}$ ($\0=0 \cup \N$). In particular, this means that all trajectories except for the trivial loop go

A Reward Problem to the Consecutive Heads In a Run
How many consecutive heads can we observe in a run of coin tossing of length n? Although the problem seems to be easy to answer, this would be actually a little bit tough when we try to find the solution straightforwardly.

Clock Genes Regulate Ca2+ Signaling and Mitochondrial Bioenergetics to Inhibit Sjögren Disease
Objective Although Ca2+ signaling and metabolism have been identified as key determinants for the development of Sjögren disease (SjD), the intricate connection between them and salivary gland physiology remains poorly understood. Methods Fluorescence‐based Ca2+ imaging, RNA sequencing, and mitochondrial activity were used to investigate the effects of
