Nonlinear Dynamics of a Passive Walker: Bifurcation and Stability Insights With Spring and Damper Mechanics

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores the nonlinear dynamics associated with a passive dynamic walker (PDW), focusing on the bifurcation and stability insights derived from spring and damper mechanics. PDWs, which rely on gravity for stable locomotion without active control, exhibit a rich spectrum of behaviors, from periodic to chaotic motion.

Tuning the Morphology of Self‐Assembled Nanopatterns on MgO(001) Surfaces by Sequential Broad‐Beam Ion Irradiation

open access: yesphysica status solidi (RRL) – Rapid Research Letters, EarlyView.
A two‐step approach based on broad‐beam ion irradiation is demonstrated to produce fine‐tuned self‐assembled surface patterns on MgO(001). It shows an efficient route to modifying the crystalline MgO(001) surface topography in a controlled way, making use of its very specific behavior in terms of both the pattern morphology and patterning dynamics.

From Flybys to Sample Return: A Review of Space Probes and Robotic Sampling Technologies for Small Bodies

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full
