A Self‐Healing Permanent Magnet Putty for Soft Robot Skins With Force Sensing and Functional Recovery

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Permanent magnet putty (PMP) integrates high‐coercivity NdFeB particles with a dynamic polyborosiloxane–Ecoflex matrix, achieving rapid self‐healing (90% mechanical recovery in 10 s) and magnetic recovery within 20 min. With twice the sensitivity of commercial putties, PMP enables precise 5–30 N force detection and discrimination between pressing and ...

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 ...

Wireless Precise Manipulation of Tumor Spheroids Using a Millirobot Controlled by Permanent Magnetic Traps

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A magnetic donut‐like millirobot is developed for label‐free pick‐and‐place of a tumor spheroid wirelessly controlled by a magnetic trap. Spheroids are important 3D multicellular culture systems that recapitulate key structural and functional features of native tissues.

EFFECTS OF ALTERED GRAVITY ON STEM CELL BIOLOGY AND TISSUE REGENERATION IN THE PRESENCE OF CERIUM OXIDE NANOPARTICLES

open access: yes, 2018
The gravitational force of 1 g is the oldest environmental factor and life on Earth has adapted perfectly to this nearly constant force. It is well known that isolated cells in culture can sense altered gravity and modify important biological processes

WorMa: An Undulatory Robot With Center of Mass Regulation via Internal Fluid Redistribution for Amphibious Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
WorMa is an amphibious undulatory robot that uses Center of Mass redistribution as the sole terrain adaptation mechanism. This mechanism is based on internal fluid mass redistribution through a pump‐driven latex balloon system that creates three profiles: head‐biased, balanced, and tail‐biased.

Toward Mechanical Intelligence in Robotics

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robots can use their physical bodies to perform functions usually assigned to electronic sensors and controllers. This perspective defines mechanical intelligence through three core operations: filtering inputs, routing mechanical signals, and switching between states.

The GOCE observations for detecting the full extent of the crust to mantle section brought to the surface in the Kohistan Arc, Himalaya

open access: yes, 2012
The aim of this work is to use the GOCE observations in a geologically unique part of the Himalayan orogen, which is the Kohistan arc. Here the entire section of the crust from the mantle-crust transition, to the volcanic deposits in the upper crust are ...

On the origin of gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
It is argued that the existence of a minimum interval of space and time may imply the existence of gravity as a geometric property of spacetime described by general ...
