POLE CLIMBING PNEUMATIC ROBOT

Proceedings of the JFPS International Symposium on Fluid Power, 2002
A robot able to climb poles was built. The robot consists of a pneumatic flexible actuator as the body with the upper and lower heads supporting the devices that catch the pole. Passive, no actuated, pole locking was provided. The robot kinematics was inch-worm inspired.

Development of a Lizard-Inspired Wall-Climbing Robot Using Pressure Sensitive Adhesion

IEEE Access, 2022
This paper presents the design, fabrication, and control of a quadruped wall-climbing robot. The robot’s kinematics is inspired by lizards, which use trot-gait for the locomotion. The key features of this robot are its pressure-sensitive adhesive (

Using the Own Flexibility of a Climbing Robot as a Double Force Sensor [PDF]

, 2011
Force sensors are used when interaction tasks are carried out by robots in general, and by climbing robots in particular. If the mechanics and electronics systems are contained inside the own robot, the robot becomes portable without external control ...

An online stair-climbing control method for a transformable tracked robot

, 2012
Stair-climbing is a necessary capacity for mobile robots. This paper presents an online control method for the stair-climbing of a transformable tracked robot, Amoeba-II, and this robot is also an isomerism-modules robot with different mechanism modules.

Overcoming platinum resistance by the disulfiram metabolite CuET in novel preclinical models of human carcinomas

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cisplatin‐resistant cancer cells survive DNA‐damaging platinum‐based treatment yet remain sensitive to CuET‐induced proteotoxic stress. The distinct mechanism of action allows CuET to overcome and eliminate cisplatin‐resistant tumour cells, unless highly expressed metallothioneins (MTs) interfere with CuET, thereby highlighting MT levels as candidate ...

Analysis of the aerodynamic performance of a twin-propelled wall-climbing robot based on computational fluid dynamics method

AIP Advances, 2022
We present a twin-propelled wall-climbing robot that can stably adsorb and move quickly on a vertical wall by exploiting the propeller’s reverse thrust as the adsorption force and the wheel as the movement method.

Importin 7 mediates the nuclear import of HIV‐1 integrase via a specific interacting interface

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
HIV‐1 integrase enables viral DNA integration into the host genome. By binding to the core domain of the host protein Importin 7 via its C‐terminal domain, the integrase is transported across the nuclear membrane into the nucleus, where integration of the viral genome into host DNA takes place. This translocation is a critical step for subsequent viral
