Nonlocomotory Robotic Strategies for Dynamic Rotation Control in Terrestrial Robots: A Review

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Terrestrial robots increasingly require rapid body rotation to maintain stability and agility in complex environments. This review shows nonlocomotory rotational control strategies that operate without ground contact, including reaction wheels, tails, bars, limbs, and thrusters.

Observations of acoustic emission activity during gear defect diagnosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
It is widely recognised that acoustic emission (AE) is gaining ground as a non- destructive technique (NDT) for health diagnosis on rotating machinery.

Thermal Effects of Acoustic-gravity Waves in Titan’s Upper Atmosphere and Their Implications for Atmospheric Jeans Escape

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Early observations from the Cassini spacecraft revealed the presence of acoustic-gravity waves in Titan’s upper atmosphere. However, the impacts of wave modes with different temporal and spatial scales on the thermal structure and atmospheric escape have

Variational Principles for Acoustic-Gravity Waves

open access: yesThe Physics of Fluids, 1963
Variational principles are developed for the dynamics of a fluid under initial stress in an arbitrary potential field and disturbed from equilibrium. They are formulated in terms of the fluid displacement. Two distinct principles are obtained which are mathematically equivalent but differ fundamentally from the physical viewpoint.

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced 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 ...

Frequency dependence of acoustic waves in marine sediments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In situ techniques provide the most reliable method of examining the geoacoustical properties of marine sediments. In the past, individual in situ surveys have only been able to examine compressional waves over a maximum frequency range of 100 Hz to 50 ...

Horizon effects with surface waves on moving water

open access: yes, 2010
Copyright © 2010 IOP PublishingSurface waves on a stationary flow of water are considered, in a linear model that includes the surface tension of the fluid. The resulting gravity-capillary waves experience a rich array of horizon effects when propagating

Detection of acoustic‐gravity waves in lower ionosphere by VLF radio waves [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2013
We present a new method to study harmonic waves in the low ionosphere (60–90 km) by detecting their effects on reflection of very low frequency (VLF) radio waves. Our procedure is based on amplitude analysis of reflected VLF radio waves recorded in real time, which yields an insight into the dynamics of the ionosphere at heights where VLF radio waves ...

A Soft Robotic Device for Targeted Massage Therapy of Residual Limbs

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Residual limb edema after amputation can hinder recovery and delay prosthetic fitting. This study presents a soft‐robotic wearable device that delivers sequential compression through pneumatic McKibben actuators. By replicating the principles of manual lymphatic drainage, the device generates controlled mechanotherapeutic pressure patterns, providing a
