Topology and Material Optimization in Ultra‐Soft Magneto‐Active Structures: Making Advantage of Residual Anisotropies

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Residual magnetization induces pronounced mechanical anisotropy in ultra‐soft magnetorheological elastomers, shaping deformation and actuation even without external magnetic fields. This study introduces a computational‐experimental framework integrating magneto‐mechanical coupling into topology optimization for designing soft magnetic actuators with ...

Azobenzene's Cross‐Scale Optics and Photonics: Molecular Photoswitching, Mesoscopic Material Motions, and Adaptive Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Azobenzene photoswitches translate molecular‐scale E/Z photoisomerization into macroscopic material responses and device‐level photonic functions. This Review highlights how azobenzene research has evolved from molecular photochemistry to photoalignment, mass migration, photomechanics, and heat release, ultimately enabling holography, reconfigurable ...

Miniature Soft Robot With Magnetically Reprogrammable Surgical Functions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Miniature soft robots have great prospects to revolutionize minimally invasive treatments. Here we present a miniature soft robot, which can be reprogrammed to perform five surgical functionalities with six‐degrees‐of‐freedom motions. This soft robot can prospectively make minimally invasive surgery considerably safer and painless, and enable ...

Sensor Fault Reconstruction-Based Fixed-Time Fault-Tolerant Control for Quadrotor UAVs Under Compound Actuator-Sensor Faults

open access: yesIEEE Access
Reliable trajectory tracking of quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) becomes particularly challenging when actuator degradation and corrupted state measurements occur simultaneously, because input-channel compensation alone cannot prevent faulty ...

Fault-Tolerant Control for Quadcopters Under Actuator and Sensor Faults

open access: yesSensors
Fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) methods and fault-tolerant control (FTC) have been the focus of intensive research across various fields to ensure safe operation, reduce costs, and optimize maintenance tasks. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), particularly quadcopters or quadrotors, are often prone to faults in sensors and actuators due to their ...
