Compliant Pneumatic Feet with Real‐Time Stiffness Adaptation for Humanoid Locomotion
A compliant pneumatic foot with real‐time variable stiffness enables humanoid robots to adapt to changing terrains. Using onboard vision and pressure control, the foot modulates stiffness within each gait cycle, reducing impact forces and improving balance. The design, cast in soft silicone with embedded air chambers and Kevlar wrapping, offers durable,

Motion-Based Design of Passive Damping Devices to Mitigate Wind-Induced Vibrations in Stay Cables [PDF]
Wind action can induce large amplitude vibrations in the stay cables of bridges. To reduce the vibration level of these structural elements, different types of passive damping devices are usually installed.

Temperature sensitive controller performance of MR dampers [PDF]
Magnetorheological (MR) dampers can experience large temperature changes as a result of heating caused by energy dissipation, but control systems are often designed without consideration of this fact.

We introduce a novel, ion‐targeted strategy to enhance calcium permeation in voltage gated calcium channels. By directly driving the ions’ coherent collective motion via resonant coupling with a 1.65 THz field, we lower the inter‐site energy barrier, inducing a statistically significant enhancement of ion influx.
