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 ...

Joint Optimal Allocation of Resources for Multiple Jammer Based on Multi‐Agent Deep Reinforcement Learning

IET Radar, Sonar & Navigation
In response to the complex scenario where multiple jammers navigate through a netted radar system (NRS), this study presents an optimised allocation algorithm for cooperative jamming resources, namely the Multi‐Agent Jamming Resource Allocation (MJCJRA ...

Thermoelectric Response and Field‐Induced Figure of Merit in Fluorine–Doped Carbon Nanotube Using the Lorenz Number

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
Thermoelectric conductivity decreases nonlinearly with increasing temperature for all investigated band‐gap values. Higher energy splitting yields lower conductivity, while smaller gaps maintain superior carrier transport. Peak response occurs at low temperature, followed by gradual saturation at elevated temperatures.

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.

Diagnostic Challenges in Uncommon Firearm Injury Cases: A Multidisciplinary Approach

Diagnostics
Background: Firearm wounds tend to have a precise pattern. Despite this, real-world case presentations can present uncertain elements, sometimes deviating from what is considered standard, and present uncommon features that are difficult for forensic ...

Preventing wall deposition in duct flows: The role of particle number density and flow direction

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Particle deposition in wall‐bounded turbulent flows is a challenge in many industries, including pneumatic conveying, filtration, and related applications. When particles accumulate near boundaries, they reduce transport efficiency, alter near‐wall flow structures, and cause blockage.

Numerical investigations on the sabots discard process of an APFSDS at different angles of attack

The Journal of Engineering, 2018
Sabot asymmetric discard after the projectile being launched from the muzzle at various angles of attack and 4Ma is investigated. This is implemented by the coupling computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and six degrees-of-freedom exterior ballistic code ...

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 ...
