Active carbody roll control in railway vehicles using hydraulic actuation [PDF]
Carbody tilting is used in railway vehicles to reduce the exposure of passengers to lateral acceleration in curves, allowing these to be negotiated at higher speeds with the same level of comfort. This, however, requires a rather complex actuation system

Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine
A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...
