Growth of Omnichannel Grocery Retailing and Food Prices
ABSTRACT This paper examines the effects of the growth of omnichannel grocery retailing on food prices. We first develop a conceptual model of consumer choice and retailer pricing that allows us to evaluate changes in equilibrium prices, quantities, and profits with online channel growth and alternative pricing strategies.

Planning and Control Framework for a Quadruped Robot With Changeable Configuration
Multiconfiguration quadruped robots enhance adaptability by switching between mammal‐like and reptile‐like morphologies. This study presents a nonlinear constraint‐based motion planner integrated with a hierarchical whole‐body controller, enabling robust configuration switching and locomotion on complex terrains. Experiments on slopes, irregular bricks,

A machine learning framework is developed for the inverse design of 4D‐printed active composite plates. It utilizes a forward model to predict shapes from patterns and an inverse model to suggest initial patterns for desired shapes. This framework integrates a genetic algorithm to refine the predicted patterns, ensuring higher accuracy in achieving ...
