Semianalytical Approximation of the Fluid Drag in Projectile Motion Using Newton's Equation of Motion

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics
A body moving in a fluid experiences some of the fluid-induced forces, which may derail the body from its fluid-free trajectory and consequently transform its maximum height reached, time of flight, and range.

Push the Limits: Human‐Like Multimodal Extreme Embodied Intelligence for Autonomous Racing

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Autonomous racing tests embodied intelligence under extreme control limits of speed, actuation, and decision‐making. Inspired by human multimodality, we present Apex, an embodied agent deployed on a super‐formula racing car at Yas Marina. Integrating physics‐informed perception, multimodal learning, and tasking, Apex cuts lap times by 15% and achieves ...
