Generalized Task‐Driven Design of Soft Robots via Reduced‐Order Finite Element Method‐Based Surrogate Modeling

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A unified, reusable modeling pipeline enables task‐driven design of soft robots across actuator families and task scenarios. High‐fidelity simulations are compressed into compact pseudo‐rigid‐body joint surrogates, while a design‐conditioned meta‐model generates new surrogates from geometry parameters without rerunning finite element method.

Experimental and numerical investigation into effect of elevated temperature on fretting fatigue behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Fretting fatigue damage occurs in contacting parts when they are subjected to fluctuating loadings and sliding movements at the same time. This phenomenon may occur in many applications such as bearings/ shafts, bolted and riveted connections, steel ...

Speckle Skin‐Based Multimodal Tactile Perception for Fine Robotic Manipulation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
SpeckleTac, a miniature vision‐based tactile sensor, utilizes a speckle‐pattern skin and optical flow‐based scalable virtual marker tracking. Combined with advanced algorithms, it achieves high‐resolution 3D surface reconstruction, precise contact perception, and stable grasping capabilities.

Lagomorph cranial biomechanics and the functional significance of the unique fenestrated rostrum of leporids

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The crania of leporid lagomorphs are uniquely fenestrated, including the posterior cranial bones and the lateral portion of the maxilla. The functional significance of the highly fenestrated rostrum has received considerably little attention, despite being absent in other mammalian herbivores with a long rostrum.

Radial capacity and hemodynamics evaluation in vitro and implantable feasibility validation in vivo of thinner bioresorbable polymer vascular stents

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
A series of in vitro experiments, numerical simulations and in vivo experiments were conducted to jointly evaluate the effects of different thicknesses of bioabsorbable polymer vascular stents on their radial capacity, hemodynamics and in vivo outcomes.

Failure characteristics and the energy criterion of rock with a through‐going joint under true‐triaxial unloading conditions: Insights from the DEM model

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The rock failure mode is significantly influenced by the contributing factors, such as the joint inclination, the initial confining pressure, and the unloading point. We found six typical rock failure modes after a large number of numerical tests. Abstract Excavation unloading damages rock masses, with preferential failure along geological defects in ...
