Monolithic Biohybrid Flexure Mechanism Actuated by Bioengineered Skeletal Muscle Tissue

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A scalable, monolithic biohybrid flexure mechanism is presented, integrating engineered skeletal muscle tissue with a soft, biocompatible, hollow silicone cylinder featuring dual pillars. Muscle contraction induces bending motion upon electrical stimulation, with performance governed by the structure's flexural rigidity.

Self‐Rhythmic Soft Pneumatic Pressure Regulation System Based on Self‐Excited Oscillation of Jet Hose

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a soft pneumatic pressure regulation system that uses self‐excited hose oscillations to convert constant pressure (90–150 kPa) into rhythmic output. Simulations and experiments demonstrate tunable oscillation frequencies (5.9–11.1 Hz) through adjustments in pressure, hose length, and jet hole diameter.

A Magnetically Transformable Twisting Millirobot for Cargo Delivery at Low Reynolds Number

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Herein, a soft millirobot, TwistBot, that transforms from a flat shape to a helical shape to propel in fluids at low Reynolds number is reported. Its geometry is optimized by numerical simulation and validated by experiments to effectively propel and deliver solid cargos.
