A Soft Robotic Device for Targeted Massage Therapy of Residual Limbs
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Residual limb edema after amputation can hinder recovery and delay prosthetic fitting. This study presents a soft‐robotic wearable device that delivers sequential compression through pneumatic McKibben actuators. By replicating the principles of manual lymphatic drainage, the device generates controlled mechanotherapeutic pressure patterns, providing a

Miniaturized Magnetic Tip Design for Endoluminal Vine Robot Navigation
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A magnetic tip mount is designed for a miniaturized 7 mm soft‐growing vine robot to enable wireless magnetic steering and onboard imaging, while preserving a 3 mm working channel. The internal–external ring magnets design balances magnetic attachment with low eversion pressure. Experiments demonstrate ±90° steering, 34 mm bending radius, and successful

Analytical Calculation of Cylindrical Shells in the Form of Second-Order Algebraic Surfaces
Structural Mechanics of Engineering Constructions and BuildingsWhen choosing the shape of a shell, one should strive for the boundary conditions to ensure momentless behavior of the shell. Second-order algebraic surfaces include three degenerate surfaces: parabolic, elliptic, and hyperbolic cylindrical surfaces, and

FiN‐Kiri: Fabric‐Based Inflatable Kirigami Actuator for Multimodal Soft Robots
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This study introduces a type of inflatable fabric‐based kirigami actuator capable of performing bending motion. The actuator is utilized as soft grippers, a crawling robot and a swimming robot. The crawling robot demonstrated extraordinary motion capabilities, such as moving forward, turning and navigating a narrow tunnel.

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2019 We study the stability of Riemann solutions to pressureless Euler equations with Coulomb-type friction under the nonlinear approximation of flux functions with one parameter. The approximated system can be seen as the generalized Chaplygin pressure Aw-

Bitsadze-Samarskii type problem for the diffusion equation and degenerate hyperbolic equation
Vestnik KRAUNC: Fiziko-Matematičeskie NaukiSummary: A boundary value problem of the Bitsadze-Samarskii type is studied in the article for a fractionalorder diffusion equation and a degenerate hyperbolic equation with singular coefficients at lower terms in an unbounded domain. The article considers a mixed domain where the parabolic part of the domain under consideration coincides with the ...

Consensus Formation and Change are Enhanced by Neutrality
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Neutral agents are shown to enhance both the formation and overturning of consensus in collective decision‐making. A general mathematical model and experiments with locusts and humans reveal that neutrality enables robust consensus via simple interactions and accelerates consensus change by reducing effective population size.
