Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

Deciphering Eccentric Accretion Disks with GRMHD Simulations
Accretion disks around supermassive black holes play a crucial role in understanding high-energy astrophysical phenomena, particularly in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and tidal disruption events (TDEs).

Magnetic Fields in Accretion Disks
, 1999 This paper summarises our work on the role of magnetic fields in accretion disks presented in two papers elsewhere. In the first part (a summary of part of Kuncic & Bicknell 1999), we present a formal development of the equations governing the ...

Hybrid Continuum Robot Designs and Architectures for Healthcare Applications
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Hybrid continuum robots represent an emerging class of flexible manipulators that blend materials, structures, and actuation concepts from the established fields of soft and continuum robotics. This review introduces an accessible framework to distinguish key hybridization approaches, surveys current designs aimed at complex clinical applications, and ...

Accretion Regimes of Neutrino-cooled Flows onto Black Holes
The Astrophysical JournalNeutrino-cooled accretion disks can form in the aftermath of neutron-star mergers as well as during the collapse of rapidly rotating massive stars and the accretion-induced collapse of rapidly rotating white dwarfs.

Continuum Robots in Surgery: From Engineering Design to Clinical Practice
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.The hyper‐redundant nature of continuum robot structures enables near‐infinite degrees of freedom leading to immense potential for medical applications. This review provides a historical background of continuum robots and novel ideas shaping their progress to current structural design, sensing technology, modeling techniques, and control methods.
