Tendon‐Driven Compliant Wheel‐Less Snake Robot for Undulatory Locomotion Using Conformable Ground Contacts

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a tendon‐driven compliant snake robot that uses globally applied vertical bending and axial twisting along its body to enable various gaits. Body deflection from compliance and weight passively generates the ground contact patterns required for locomotion.

Monitoring the reduction in shrinkage cracking of mortars containing superabsorbent polymers [PDF]

, 2017
Ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) is characterized by a low water-to-cement ratio, leading to improved durability and mechanical properties. However, the risk for autogenous shrinkage and cracking due to restrained shrinkage increases, which may ...
