Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Pak Biawak, a necrobot, embodies an unusual fusion of biology and robotics. Designed to repurpose natural structures after death, it challenges conventional boundaries between nature and engineering. Its movements are precise yet unsettling, raising questions about sustainability, ethics, and the untapped potential of biointegrated machines.

Hunting for gravity waves in non-orographic winter storms using 3+ years of regional surface air pressure network and radar observations [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and PhysicsAtmospheric gravity waves (i.e., buoyancy waves) can occur within stable layers when vertical oscillations are triggered by localized heating, flow over terrain, or imbalances in upper-level flow.

Tamkang Journal of Mathematics, 1998 We are concerned with the steady wave motions in a 2-fluid system with constant densities. This is a free boundary problem in which the lighter fluid is bounded above by a free surface and is separated from the heavier one down below by an interface. By using a contractive mapping principle type argument.

Magnetic waves in a stratified medium: dispersion relations and exact solutions
, 2019 We solve for waves in an isothermal, stratified medium with a magnetic field that points along a direction perpendicular to that of gravity and varies exponentially in the direction of gravity. For waves propagating along the magnetic field, we calculate

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

Cotton Blend Gravity $pp$ Waves [PDF]
, 2004 We study conformal gravity in d=2+1, where the Cotton tensor is equated to a--necessarily traceless--matter stress tensor, for us that of the improved scalar field. We first solve this system exactly in the $pp$ wave regime, then show it to be equivalent

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This study explores how information processing is distributed between brains and bodies through a codesign approach. Using the “backpropagation through soft body” framework, brain–body coupling agents are developed and analyzed across several tasks in which output is generated through the agents’ physical dynamics.

Atmosphere, 2019 The upper atmosphere of Mars is constantly perturbed by small-scale gravity waves propagating from below. As gravity waves strongly affect the large-scale dynamics and thermal state, constraining their statistical characteristics is of great importance ...

A Soft Robotic Device for Targeted Massage Therapy of Residual Limbs
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Residual limb edema after amputation can hinder recovery and delay prosthetic fitting. This study presents a soft‐robotic wearable device that delivers sequential compression through pneumatic McKibben actuators. By replicating the principles of manual lymphatic drainage, the device generates controlled mechanotherapeutic pressure patterns, providing a

A Plug‐and‐Play Volume Minimizing Micromixer
Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Microscale fluid mixing has numerous applications where rapid and efficient mixing is required, including drug discovery, bio‐analysis and point‐of‐care diagnostics. Conventional soft lithography processes, however, make the integration of robust and reliable mixing difficult to implement in practice, especially across different flow rates ...
