Stochastic Locomotion Emerging From Body–Environment Interactions in a Mexican Jumping Bean–Inspired Robot

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Inspired by the Mexican jumping bean, this study presents a centimeter‐scale, electronics‐free robot that merges principles from both the animal and plant kingdoms. A thermo‐responsive actuator mimicking larval motion, enclosed within a uniquely shaped plant‐seed‐inspired shell, generates jumping, rolling, flipping, sliding, and climbing through ...

Computational fluid dynamics simulations of airflow through the nasal passages of rhinolophoid bats

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The nasal passages of bats that emit their echolocation call through their nostrils have adapted for sound emission as well as standard respiratory and olfactory functions. Rhinolophids, hipposiderids and rhinonycterids all use a high duty cycle (HDC) echolocation strategy.

Maximizing Neurovascular Outcomes of Facial Transplantation: A Comprehensive Review

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Facial transplantation is a division of reconstructive surgery which aims to improve the function and appearance of a face that has endured severe disfigurement. Currently, the face transplant procedure uses allogenic tissue, harvested from a brain‐dead donor, to replace damaged facial components.

Ultrafast Transitions in X‐Ray Irradiated Solids

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this review, we present current developments on modeling ultrafast transitions in solids triggered by intense, atto‐ to femtosecond pulses from X‐ray free electron lasers. This specific irradiation regime requires dedicated simulation tools based on theoretical and computational methods, involving the elements of classical and quantum ...

Overcoming spectral limits of perovskite photodetectors for the infrared region

InfoScience, EarlyView.
Infrared (IR) photodetectors are vital for modern optoelectronics, but traditional inorganic semiconductors face limitations in cost, processing, and bandgap tunability. This review provides a summary of advanced strategies to extend metal halide perovskites into the IR region, categorizing approaches into intrinsic material engineering, physical ...

Stretch‐shortening cycle force–time and power–time waveform analysis indicates limitations of the contralateral limb benchmark in athletes with ACL injury

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Unilateral countermovement jump (CMJsingle) testing is commonly used after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) to assess stretch‐shortening cycle (SSC) function and return‐to‐sport readiness. However, the impact of ACLR on contralateral limb SSC function is poorly understood, which may impact the utility of the ...
