Programmable‐Stiffness Tensegrity Continuum Robot for Adaptive Multicurvature On‐Orbit Assembly
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A bioinspired tensegrity‐based continuum robot (BTCR) with programmable stiffness enables adaptive multicurvature morphing via coordinated intra‐ and intermodule regulation. A unified energy‐based framework predicts self‐equilibrium and deformation for serial modules. Experiments and Simulations demonstrate reconfiguration into hexagonal, circular, and

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.Schematic overview of the upcycling of industrial LDPE waste via fused deposition modeling (FDM). ABSTRACT This study explores the potential of additive manufacturing (AM) to upcycle industrial waste low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) by investigating the effect of LDPE waste's melt flow index (MFI) on the printability of LDPE/polystyrene (PS) blends via ...

The Complex Links Between Governance and Biodiversity [PDF]
, 2006 We argue that two problems weaken the claims of those who link corruption and the exploitation of natural resources. The first is conceptual. Studies that use national level indicators of corruption fail to note that corruption comes in many forms, at ...

Disparity of turbinal bones in placental mammals
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Turbinals are key bony elements of the mammalian nasal cavity, involved in heat and moisture conservation as well as olfaction. While turbinals are well known in some groups, their diversity is poorly understood at the scale of placental mammals, which span 21 orders.
