The case of the oscillating party balloon: A simple toy experiment requiring a not-so-simple interpretation [PDF]

, 2007
The intriguing midair oscillations of a party balloon, which occur once its buoyancy is no longer capable of keeping it against the ceiling, is shown to require a rather sophisticated explanation in terms of variable-mass dynamics.

Creating Character Networks from Comics Using Frames and Words in Balloons [PDF]

2018 7th International Congress on Advanced Applied Informatics (IIAI-AAI), 2018
We create character networks from comics using the frames and the words in balloons to find and understand them. First, we build a dataset that contains a comic's characters and its words in balloons separated by frames. Second, we extract the semantic relations among characters using the words in the balloons and the frames.

Soft Robotic Excretory Care Simulator for Nursing Education: Functional and Perceptual Biomimetics Approach

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in
