Highly Dynamic Soft Electrohydraulic Origami Actuators for Agile and Multimodal Robotic Locomotion

open access: yesSmartBot, EarlyView.
Most current soft robots still lag far behind their natural counterparts in both agility and speed, mainly attributed to the limited morphing modes and performance of soft actuators. Here, the authors report a new methodology of electrohydraulic origami (EHO) for creating powerful and multimodal soft actuators with large strain, high speed, lightweight,

Scalable Room‐Temperature Terahertz Graphene Cameras

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Terahertz (THz) imaging has emerged as a powerful tool for non‐destructive, label‐free analysis across several scientific disciplines, ranging from materials science to biomedical research. By capturing the spatial‐dependent information in a broad range of frequencies, this technique enables the identification of chemical composition ...

Structural, Compositional, and Dielectric State Profiling in Label‐Free Single‐Cell Monitoring

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
Label‐free single‐cell monitoring leverages distinct physical interactions to access structural, compositional, and dielectric states of cells, enabling non‐perturbative, repeatable, and information‐rich measurements across diverse biological contexts. This review organizes representative platforms by intrinsic state variables and connects measurement ...

A Dynamic Correlation‐Information‐Fusion‐Based Spatiotemporal Network for Traffic Flow Forecasting

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Traffic Flow Forecasting (TFF) is a foundational task in the development of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITSs). The primary challenge is to undertake a comprehensive exploration of the intrinsic dynamic spatiotemporal correlations of the road network, unveiling the long‐term evolutionary traffic trends.

Green Hunter or Green Detractor? Strategic Orientations and Green Revenues

open access: yesBritish Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract We bridge a research gap concerning whether varying strategic orientations can be aligned with the transition to greener business practices. Drawing on resource‐based theory and stakeholder theory, we investigate how growth‐ and profit‐oriented strategic orientations shape firms’ capacity to generate green revenues that integrate economic ...

Amidst (waste) abundance: world‐making and struggles in hosting a municipal landfill in the Bolivian lowlands Au milieu de l'abondance (de déchets) : fabrication du monde et luttes liées à la gestion d'une décharge municipale dans les basses terres de Bolivie

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
In recent decades, solid waste has proliferated worldwide, becoming a pressing global issue. This article explores the role of Indigenous people dwelling within and upon emerging waste scenarios, with a specific focus on involved forms of sociality and ontological contestation. Drawing on the case of a municipal landfill sited on a Guarani community in

In Defence of Food: A Comparative Study of Conversas' and Moriscas' Dietary Laws as a Form of Cultural Resistance in the Early Modern Crown of Aragon

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research explores the adaptive strategies employed by Conversas (Christian women of Jewish origin) and Moriscas (Christian women of Muslim origin) in navigating adversity, particularly in their interactions with inquisitorial authorities in the early modern Crown of Aragon. This study analyses these women's efforts to uphold religious and

Cuttings, Combings, Fettlings and Flock: Gender and Australian Wool ‘Waste’, 1900–1950

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As Australia's wool industry produced vast amounts of fine fleece from the nineteenth century, the wool processing and clothes manufacturing industries generated waste – products like cuttings, combings, fettlings and flock. Salvaged and then sold to waste merchants, these and other materials had a second life.

The predatory behavior of ants: an impressive panoply of morphological adaptations

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This review focuses on predation in ants, showing the wide diversity of cases from solitary foraging to group hunting tactics, as well as the evolution of mandible shape frequently adapted to capture specific prey. Although most ants are generalist feeders, finding their sugary substances directly on plants or indirectly via sap‐sucking insects, some ...
