A critical review of porous adsorbents for air separation: From fundamental insights to rational adsorbent design

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Air separation via selective adsorption using porous adsorbents offers energy‐efficient alternatives to cryogenic distillation for producing high‐purity O2 and N2. Adsorbent efficacy depends on balancing selectivity, durability, and performance consistency across varying conditions. This comprehensive review critically discusses the design and

Automation of Surgical Workflow Recognition: Unveiling the Surgical Instrument Kinematics that Underly Robot‐Assisted Prostatectomy Procedures

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Automated procedural analysis is recognized as one of the major game changers for robotic surgery. Meaning digital analysis needs to replace the manual assessments that set todays standard. Mechanical robotic‐instrument tracking enables the derivation of quantitative kinematic metrics that support behavior‐based workflow segmentation into distinct ...

Hierarchical Language Models for Semantic Navigation and Manipulation in an Aerial‐Ground Robotic System

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A hierarchical multimodal framework coupling a large language model for task decomposition and semantic mapping with a fine‐tuned vision‐language model for semantic perception, enhanced by GridMask, is presented. An aerial‐ground robot team exploits the semantic map for global and local planning.

A Novel Contact‐Implicit Trajectory Optimization Framework for Quadruped Locomotion without Fixed Contact Sequences

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Legged robots have advanced in environmental interaction through contact, but most works rely on fixed contact sequences. This work presents a new method based on an indirect optimization method for legged robots to automatically generate contact sequences for complex movements.
