Shape‐Memory Alloy Torsion Strips for Soft Robotic Manipulation and Morphing

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
In this research, a dedicated configuration of SMA strip is proposed for soft robotic manipulation and morphing. This configuration has broad application prospects and demonstrates remarkable advantages in soft body joint operations. Mimicking invertebrates, soft robots tend to control each of their body joints to achieve the desired shape changes and ...

Learning Among Military Helicopter Crew Members: The Hidden Potential of Emotions. [PDF]

Scand J Psychol
ABSTRACT How can we learn from critical incidents? We argue that emotions have a hidden potential to construct complete experiences and learning. This study aims to develop knowledge about emotions' role when military aircrews debrief to learn from experience.

Digital Spatial Technologies to Compose the Map of the Southeast Iberia Megalithic Phenomenon. The Case Study of Fonelas (Granada, Spain)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Megalithic landscapes in Southeast Iberia remain unevenly and insufficiently documented, particularly in rugged areas where traditional survey methods are limited. This paper addresses this gap by applying a multiscalar approach to the megalithic necropolises of the Fardes River (Granada, Spain), with the objective of detecting, documenting ...
