A highly stretchable fibrous actuator with robust cyclic actuation and reprogrammable motions
InfoMat, Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2025.We developed a stretchable fibrous actuator combining shape memory alloys and elastomers. It achieves 120% stretchability, 32% actuation strain, and output forces up to 4.3 N. The actuator demonstrates robust reversibility and reprogrammable motions, which enable applications such as a fibrous robot for pipe navigation, a wearable exoskeleton, and an ...

Integrating posture‐hour constraints into construction scheduling to enhance workforce wellbeing
Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 30, Page 6107-6126, 19 December 2025.Abstract This study introduces a new posture‐hour‐based scheduling framework that integrates ergonomic constraints into construction planning. It shifts the traditional focus from “labor‐hours” to “posture‐hours” as a primary resource unit. The novelty lies in (1) defining and formulating this new problem in practical construction settings and (2 ...

Wearable Bioelectronics for Home‐Based Monitoring and Treatment of Muscle Atrophy
Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 33, September 4, 2025.As an inevitable disease, muscle atrophy has received more attention. Because the factors that induce this disease are diverse, achieving a complete cure is still impossible. Wearable bioelectronics provides a more comfortable, low‐cost, and efficient way of home care for the monitoring and treatment of muscle atrophy. Therefore, this review summarizes

ROV Teleoperation in the Presence of Cross‐Currents Using Soft Haptics
Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 2580-2593, September 2025.ABSTRACT The remote operation of underwater vehicles at depth is complicated by the presence of invisible and unpredictable environmental disturbances such as cross‐currents. Communicating the presence of these disturbances to an operator on the surface is made more difficult by the nature of the disturbances and the lack of visible features to ...
