Bio‐to‐Robot Transfer of Fish Sensorimotor Dynamics via Interpretable Model

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study demonstrates how a biologically interpretable model trained on real‐fish muscle activity can accurately predict the motion of a robotic fish. By linking real‐fish sensorimotor dynamics with robotic fish, the work offers a transparent, data‐efficient framework for transferring biological intelligence to bioinspired robotic systems.

Let's Go on an Adventure: Outdoor Literacy Lessons as a Material Starting Place for Writing Among High School Students Who Say They Can't Write

Journal of Adolescent &Adult Literacy, Volume 69, Issue 5, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT From a desire to create an “unruly edge” that values student voice in a holistically more authentic and creative learning environment, this qualitative action research study seeks to determine how reconfiguring the learning environment (holding ELA classes outside) contributes to literacy learning for students tracked into classes that ...

Bioinspired microfluidics [PDF]

, 2017
Through developments in 3D fabrication technologies in recent years, it is now possible to build and characterize much more sophisticated 3D platforms than was formerly the case. Regions of differing polarity, binding behaviour, flexibility/rigidity, can be incorporated into these fluidic systems.

Size-scaling limits of impulsive elastic energy release from a resilin-like elastomer

, 2018
Elastically-driven motion has been used as a strategy to achieve high speeds in small organisms and engineered micro-robotic devices. We examine the size-scaling relations determining the limit of elastic energy release from elastomer bands with ...

Rate-independent soft crawlers

, 2017
This paper applies the theory of rate-independent systems to model the locomotion of bio-mimetic soft crawlers. We prove the well-posedness of the approach and illustrate how the various strategies adopted by crawlers to achieve locomotion, such as ...

Hyperspectral Imaging Bioinspired by Chromatic Blur Vision in Color Blind Animals

Photonics, 2019
Hyperspectral imaging remote sensing is mutually restricted in terms of spatial and spectral resolutions, signal-to-noise ratio and exposure time. To deal with this trade-off properly, it is beneficial for imaging systems to have high light flux. In this

Providing adhesion for a miniture mobile intra-abdominal device based on biomimetic principles [PDF]

, 2009
This paper investigates the surface adhesion characteristics required for a miniature mobile device to move around the abdominal cavity. Such a device must be capable of adhering to the tissue lining and move freely across the upper surface of the ...

Comparative Effects of Superhydrophobic Sand and Plastic Mulches on Growth and Yield of Sweet Pepper (Capsicum annum L.) under Arid Environments

HortScience
Superhydrophobic sand (SHS) is a plastic-free mulching technology that reduces surface evaporation of water from irrigated soils. Here, we present the results of two experimental field trials conducted in the 2019–20 and 2021–22 cropping seasons ...
