Dynamic whole-body motion generation under rigid contacts and other unilateral constraints [PDF]
, 2013 The most widely used technique for generating wholebody motions on a humanoid robot accounting for various tasks and constraints is inverse kinematics. Based on the task-function approach, this class of methods enables the coordination of robot movements

A solution strategy to include the opening of the opercular slits in moving-mesh CFD models of suction feeding [PDF]
, 2015 The gill cover of fish and pre-metamorphic salamanders has a key role in suction feeding by acting as a one-way valve. It initially closes to avoid an inflow of water through the gill slits, after which it opens to allow outflow of the water that was ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Butterfly wing scales are intricate cuticular functional nanosctructures. This perspective suggests that spatially varying material properties, cytoskeletal constraints, and growth‐driven mechanical instabilities shape the resulting nanoscale architectures created from single cells.

Implementation and Analysis of Motion Control Techniques on an Industrial 7 DOF Robotic Manipulator
Journal of Studies in Science and Engineering, 2022 With the quest for modernization in robotics motion control of robot manipulators is an area of active research. In motion control, inverse trajectory application is the most adopted solution which is further improved by considering the effect of ...

Undulatory swimming in shear-thinning fluids: Experiments with C. elegans [PDF]
, 2014 The swimming behaviour of microorganisms can be strongly influenced by the rheology of their fluid environment. In this manuscript, we experimentally investigate the effects of shear-thinning viscosity on the swimming behaviour of an undulatory swimmer ...
