A Proof‐of‐Concept Assessment of a Novel Wearable Eyelid Muscle Device: A Pre‐Clinical Animal Cadaver Study for Eyelid Closure Restoration

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article introduces a soft wearable eyelid sling device incorporating a hydraulic soft artificial muscle (SAM) for achieving complete closure of an eyelid. The SAM is driven by a cam mechanism that provides a displacement profile closely matched with those of a healthy eyelid.

Indentifying human capital externalities: Theory with an application to US cities [PDF]

open access: yes
The identification of aggregate human capital externalities is still not fully understood. The existing (Mincerian) approach confounds positive externalities with wage changes due to a downward sloping demand curve for human capital.

Liquid Metal Sensors for Soft Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review thoroughly reviews liquid metal sensors in soft robots. Their unique material properties like high conductivity and good biocompatibility are analyzed. Working principles are classified, and applications in environmental perception, motion detection, and human—robot interaction are introduced.

Grounding Large Language Models for Robot Task Planning Using Closed‐Loop State Feedback

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
BrainBody‐Large Language Model (LLM) introduces a hierarchical, feedback‐driven planning framework where two LLMs coordinate high‐level reasoning and low‐level control for robotic tasks. By grounding decisions in real‐time state feedback, it reduces hallucinations and improves task reliability.

Human Capital and Economic Growth in Spain, 1850-2000. [PDF]

open access: yes
We investigate human capital accumulation in Spain using alternative approaches based on the concept of ‘labor quality’ and on the idea of education. We, then, assess the effect of human capital accumulation on labor productivity growth and discuss the ...

Liquid Crystalline Elastomers in Soft Robotics: Assessing Promise and Limitations

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) are programmable soft materials that undergo large, anisotropic deformation in response to external stimuli. Their molecular alignment encodes directional actuation in a monolithic structure, making them long‐standing candidates for soft robotic systems.

FACTORS LIMITING INVESTMENT IN HUMAN CAPITAL IN MACEDONIA [PDF]

open access: yes
There is a strong link among investments in human capital, economic growth and human development. Since human capital (improvements in the quality of human labour) is embodied technical progress in labour (knowledge and skills), the economic development ...

Smart REASSURED Sensors via Machine‐Augmented Printable On‐Paper Arrays

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights the emerging role of pattern‐recognition, printable on‐paper sensor arrays for intelligent PoC diagnostics. It discusses how paper's inherent limitations can be overcome through surface modification and scalable printing, and how machine‐learning analysis of cross‐reactive arrays enables multiplexed, low‐cost, and REASSURED ...

High-tech human capital: Do the richest countries invest the most? [PDF]

open access: yes
Research and Development (R&D) endogenous growth models predict and most evidence show that investment in R&D increase with economic development. We consider the type of human capital mainly used in research labs and show that the richest countries are ...
