A Superlubricated Magnetically Steerable Microcatheter with Integrated Optical and Fluidic Channels

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A magnetically steerable microcatheter with integrated optical and fluidic channels is developed for multifunctional navigation in tortuous anatomical environments. A surface‐grafted hydrogel coating enables low‐friction actuation. The device demonstrates stable light and fluid delivery during magnetic manipulation, offering a compact platform for ...

Fractional-Order Reactive Power Control for Electro-Thermal-Constrained Fault Ride-Through of Grid-Forming Converters

open access: yesFractal and Fractional
Grid-forming converters are essential for low-inertia power systems. However, their semiconductor current and junction-temperature limits make them vulnerable to protection-triggered blocking and thermal overstress during severe voltage sags.

Rellich-type Discrete Compactness for Some Discontinuous Galerkin FEM [PDF]

open access: yes
We deduce discrete compactness of Rellich type for some discontinuous Galerkin finite element methods (DGFEM) including hybrid ones, under fairly general settings on the triangulations and the finite element spaces.

A State‐Adaptive Koopman Control Framework for Real‐Time Deformable Tool Manipulation in Robotic Environmental Swabbing

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work presents a state‐adaptive Koopman linear quadratic regulator framework for real‐time manipulation of a deformable swab tool in robotic environmental sampling. By combining Koopman linearization, tactile sensing, and centroid‐based force regulation, the system maintains stable contact forces and high coverage across flat and inclined surfaces.

A continuous/discontinuous Galerkin formulation for a strain gradient-dependent damage model: 2D results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The numerical solution of strain gradient-dependent continuum problems has been hindered by continuity demands on the basis functions. The presence of terms in constitutive models which involve gradients of the strain eld means that the $C^0$ continuity

Bifurcation Curves in Discontinuous Maps [PDF]

open access: yes
Several discrete-time dynamic models are ultimately expressed in the form of iterated piecewise linear functions, in one or two-dimensional spaces. In this paper we study a one-dimensional map made up of three linear pieces which are separated by two ...

Derivation of an adjoint consistent discontinuous Galerkin discretization of the compressible Euler equations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Adjoint consistency - in addition to consistency - is the key requirement for discontinuous Galerkin (DG) discretizations to be of optimal order in L2 as well as measured in terms of target functionals.

Compliant Pneumatic Feet with Real‐Time Stiffness Adaptation for Humanoid Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A compliant pneumatic foot with real‐time variable stiffness enables humanoid robots to adapt to changing terrains. Using onboard vision and pressure control, the foot modulates stiffness within each gait cycle, reducing impact forces and improving balance. The design, cast in soft silicone with embedded air chambers and Kevlar wrapping, offers durable,

Hybrid Continuum Robot Designs and Architectures for Healthcare Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Hybrid continuum robots represent an emerging class of flexible manipulators that blend materials, structures, and actuation concepts from the established fields of soft and continuum robotics. This review introduces an accessible framework to distinguish key hybridization approaches, surveys current designs aimed at complex clinical applications, and ...

On the existence of Nash equilibrium in electoral competition [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper generalizes previous existence results on unidimensional electoral competition, by extending the traditional two-party electoral game to the case where parties have mixed motivations, in the sense that they are interested in winning the ...
