Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.

The Compressive Strength of Light Weight Concrete

International Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2020
The compressive strength of lightweight concrete using palm kernel shell (pks) and periwinkle shell (pws) is reported. The strength as a function of aggregates ,age, and density were investigated. The strengths were measured at interval of 7-day for 28 days.

Helix Alignment, Chevrons, and Edge Dislocations in Twist‐Bend Ferroelectric Nematics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The recently discovered twist‐bend ferroelectric nematic (NTBF) is the new member of the multiferroic family, representing a fluid with an oblique helicoidal (heliconical) periodic structure of spontaneous electric polarization. The work presents a thorough exploration of the material properties of this phase, how the periodic modulation of ...

Effect of pH Variations in Water Immersion on Concrete Compressive and Tensile Strength

Rekayasa Sipil
Chemical elements, especially acids, can gradually cause concrete to deteriorate. When concrete deteriorates, the bond between the cement paste and aggregates weakens, decreasing compressive strength. This study aims to analyze the influence of pH levels
