We developed methods to characterize soft contractile actuators using force–displacement measurements in the passive state and the total force in the active state and define the operational range of thermal, electrothermal, and pneumatic muscles. A graphical method enables the selection of an actuator based on the required mechanical force–displacement

Accelerating Musculoskeletal Robotics Through Parametric Design and 3D‐Printed Flexible Structures
Parametric design and flexible 3D printing create muscle‐, tendon‐, ligament‐, and cushion‐like robotic elements from a single thermoplastic polyurethane material. Tuning lattice patterns adjusts regional mechanical properties and enables coordinated multijoint motions in a life‐sized musculoskeletal leg under external suspension, with partial body ...

Abstract This article examines the psychological effects of migration detention in the European Union's Closed Controlled Access Center (CCAC) on Samos through an ecological lens. It explores a double normalization of suffering: the brutalization of necropolitical migration governance and the simultaneous understanding of resulting distress as an ...

Osteohistology of two phorusrhacids reveals uninterrupted growth strategy
Abstract Phorusrhacidae were apex predators that primarily dominated South America ecosystems for at least 40 million years with their imposing size and predatory lifestyle—yet some aspects of their biology remain poorly understood. Osteohistology is a tool for understanding growth dynamics and biomechanical adaptations.

Purpose To investigate changes in meniscal extrusion and meniscal healing status following root repair, and the relationship between meniscal extrusion and healing conditions. Methods Patients who underwent isolated root repair between 2019 and 2023 and consented to undergo second‐look arthroscopy to evaluate their healing condition (1 year ...

Purpose To report the return‐to‐sport rate of competitive athletes with hip dysplasia, in relation to their preoperative level of competition, who underwent hip arthroscopy with concomitant periacetabular osteotomy (HA + PAO). Methods Patients participating in competitive sports who underwent HA + PAO for the correction of hip dysplasia between January
