All‐Dielectric Metasurface‐Based Gap Waveguides

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
Dielectric metasurface‐based waveguides (metawavegides) offer several advantages over conventional waveguides, making them ideal for integrated photonics. A design of a metawaveguide composed of a pair of dielectric metasurfaces is proposed, where each metasurface behaves as a wall of either a perfect electric conductor or a perfect magnetic conductor,

Surface reconstruction with spherical harmonics and its application for single particle crushing simulations

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2022
Particle morphology has great influence on mechanical behaviour and hydro/thermal/electrical conductivities of granular materials. Surface reconstruction and mesh generation are critical to consider realistic particle shapes in various computational ...

Handing-over motion model based on analyses of hand motions and voice utterances of humans

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2014
In this paper, we propose a hand-over motion model based on analyses of hand motions and voice utterances of humans. This model generates a motion in which a robot hands over an object to a human accompanied by a voice greeting.

Poka: A Necro‐Robot Beetle with a Measured Payload Ratio of 6847%

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Here, Poka, a necro‐robot beetle with the ability to carry more than 68 times its own weight, is introduced, making it also a walking robot with the highest payload ratio measured to date. This paper is concerned with the design, manufacture and validation of ‘Poka', a novel millimetre‐scale necro‐robot aimed at bridging the performance gap between ...

Pre-stack elastic reverse time migration in tunnels based on cylindrical coordinates

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2022
Seismic forward-prospecting in tunnels is an important step to ensure excavation safety. Nowadays, most advanced imaging techniques in seismic exploration involve calculating the solution of elastic wave equation in a certain coordinate system.

In‐Hand Singulation, Scooping, and Cable Untangling with a 5‐Dof Tactile‐Reactive Gripper

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article presents a two‐fingered gripper with five degrees of freedom and a vision‐based tactile sensor for dexterous in‐hand manipulation. It performs complex tasks such as object singulation within granular media, scooping and precise card insertion, and cable untangling.

A Low‐Cost Curvature Detection Method for an Untethered Biped Pipeline Climbing Robot with Energy‐Efficient Strategy

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A low‐cost pipeline curvature detection method has been proposed for an untethered biped pipeline surface climbing robot (BPCR) system with a five‐degree‐of freedom structure. The BPCR features adaptive vacuum suction cups equipped with multiple laser sensors on the suction modules to detect the curvature of various surfaces.

Anisotropic Surface Microrollers for Endovascular Navigation: A Computational Analysis with a Case Study in Hepatic Perfusion

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
Computational fluid dynamics analyses assess the upstream locomotion performance of anisotropic microrollers with varying height‐to‐width ratios. Observing their successful upstream locomotion in veins, their performance in hepatic circulation is investigated for treating primary liver cancer.

Fourth order superintegrable systems separating in Cartesian coordinates I. Exotic quantum potentials [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2017
A study is presented of two-dimensional superintegrable systems separating in Cartesian coordinates and allowing an integral of motion that is a fourth order polynomial in the momenta. All quantum mechanical potentials that do not satisfy any linear differential equation are found. They do however satisfy nonlinear ODEs.
