Value of Information of Improved Traceability in Fresh Produce Markets
ABSTRACT Traceability plays an important role in promoting a safe food supply by fostering transparent information exchange along the food supply chain. New technological innovations have the potential to improve traceability outcomes, as greater transparency along the food supply chain can aid in pinpointing precise origins of the contamination ...

ABSTRACT In emerging economies where smallholder farming dominates agricultural production, agribusinesses serve as critical intermediaries linking smallholders to broader markets, and their resilience directly affects agricultural sustainability. Short‐term‐oriented capital is reluctant to adequately finance highly uncertain and cyclical agricultural ...

The behaviors of semiflexible polymers such as DNA and protein are often reshaped by coupled interactions. Monte Carlo simulations assist in studying these systems. This work recasts the traditional chain‐growth strategy into a new framework: a fixed number of chains grow synchronously, while less relevant chains to the target system are removed and ...

Pre‐Curved Everting Robots With Embedded Steering Intelligence Fabricated by CO2 Laser Welding
Design and experimental demonstration of a laser welded growing robot for anatomically guided navigation. The robot follows an aortic arch phantom entering the branchiocephalic branch through steering by design. The figure shows the physical phantom setup, CAD defined weld geometry and full robot eversion.

Programmable Flocks: Hierarchical Swarm Control via Dynamic Parameter Injection
We present a method for the control of robot swarms which allows the shaping and the translation of patterns of simple robots (“smart particles”), using two types of devices. These two types represent a hierarchy: a larger group of simple, oblivious robots (which we call the workers) that is governed by simple local attraction forces and a smaller ...
