Bronchoscopy Robot with Enhanced Flexibility and Stability via Multi‐Segment Variable Stiffness Catheter

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work presents a magnetic bronchoscopy robot with a novel multi‐segment variable stiffness catheter. This catheter can not only move flexibly in the narrow bronchi but also harden according to the need to provide support. Combined with remote wireless magnetic field drive, it provides a more precise and effective solution for biopsy of deep lung ...

Small‐Scale Magnetic Peristaltic Soft Robot With Mobility and Transport Capabilities

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study introduces a miniature, untethered soft magnetic microrobot with peristaltic capabilities for both locomotion and cargo transport. Eight helically magnetized elastomeric strips deform under rotating fields (10–80 mT, 1–5 Hz), enabling movement across rods and lumina at up to 4.1 body lengths min‐¹.

Dynamic Obstacle Avoidance of Metamorphic Microrobots Using Concentric Sector Navigator

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Metamorphic magnetic microrobots are navigated using a concentric sector navigator for dynamic obstacle avoidance in both microroller and swarm states. After microroller transport, citrate‐triggered dissolution releases nanoparticles that reassemble into a controllable swarm.

Characterization and Selection of Contractile Actuators for Soft Robotics Operating in the Quasistatic Regime

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
We developed methods to characterize soft contractile actuators using force–displacement measurements in the passive state and the total force in the active state and define the operational range of thermal, electrothermal, and pneumatic muscles. A graphical method enables the selection of an actuator based on the required mechanical force–displacement

Grid Independence Study and a Finite Difference Collocation Approach for Magnetized CeO2‐Ti3C2/H2O Hybrid Nanofluid Flow Over an Inclined Spinning Disk With Newtonian Heating

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This work examines magnetohydrodynamic (CeO2, Ti3C2/H2O) hybrid nanofluid (HNF) flow on an inclined revolving disk with effects of Newtonian heating. HNF is obtained by suspending the nanoparticles (NPs) of CeO2 and Ti3C2 in water (H2O). The flow is affected by mixed convection, Joule heating, nonlinear thermally radiative and dissipative ...
