Adaptive sliding-mode delay compensation for real-time hybrid simulations with multiple actuators
Real-time hybrid simulation (RTHS) is a widely applied test method in structural engineering, which is developed from pseudo-dynamic test. Much of the past work has been centered on one-dimensional RTHS using a single hydraulic actuator.

Soft Robotic Snake with Tunable Undulatory Gait for Efficient Underwater Locomotion
This study designs an underwater soft snake robot using 3D‐printed soft actuators, controlled by specific signals to generate sinusoidal undulation. Results show a positive correlation between speed and swing amplitude, with optimal performance at 2/3π phase offset, PLA tail, 1.2 voltage growth rate, and 6s undulation period achieving a maximum speed ...
