A Soft Robotic Fish With a Dielectric Elastomer Actuator Body and Negative Stiffness Spine
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This work introduces a bio‐mimetic soft robotic fish driven by fiber‐reinforced dielectric elastomer actuators integrated as its body. By prestretching this active skin against a flexible spine, a negative stiffness system is created, enabling large‐amplitude bending.

WiBiA: Wireless Sensor Networks Based on Biomimicry Algorithms
International Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems, 2019 The goal of biomimicry is to resolve problems by studying and mimicking the characteristics of organisms or design elements in nature. Although wireless sensor networks are used in various fields, they have limited network lifespan.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This system adopts a biomimetic phospholipid structure, covalently binding iNOS inhibitors, neuroprotective agent PCA and vitamin E derivatives through pH/ROS dual‐responsive bonds, and assembles them with Prussian blue nanozyme to form PBB@AHA. It can efficiently penetrate the blood‐brain barrier and simultaneously release multiple active components ...
