Two‐Way Shape Memory Polymer Composite Gripper for Adaptive Robotic Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A two‐way shape memory polymer (SMP) composite is developed with intrinsic shape‐changing capability driven solely by temperature, eliminating external actuation loads. Embedding the SMP in a low‐stiffness elastomeric matrix enabled reversible transformations during heating and cooling cycles.

Bottom-up collegiality, top-down collegiality, or inside-out collegiality?: Research on joint regulation in multi-level relational infrastructures as laboratories for social change

open access: yes, 2020
This paper argues that the analysis of multilevel networks (AMN) is useful to understand politics, institutional entrepreneurship, and social change. AMN helps identify multilevel relational infrastructures (in particular multilevel social status) on ...
