Multimodal Locomotion of Soft Robots

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
This review comprehensively surveys recent advances in multimodal locomotion within soft robotics. Typical locomotion modes are summarized and categorized. Furthermore, the underlying mechanisms enabling multimodal locomotion are discussed and classified into three primary categories: active control‐based, reconfiguration‐based, and environment ...

Chemical Mechanical Polishing of Plasma‐Modified Cu/Polymer Interfaces for Advanced Hybrid Bonding

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, 14 January 2026.
Hybrid bonding demands planarization of Cu/polymer interfaces, but soft polymers like benzocyclobutene (BCB) are difficult to polish by conventional chemical mechanical polishing (CMP). It is demonstrated that Ar plasma modification transforms BCB into a CMP‐compatible surface, enabling effective planarization and void‐free bonding.

Fiber‐Modified Open‐Graded Friction Courses: Unveiling Enhanced Workability and Durability in Pavements

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.
Open‐Graded Friction Course (OGFC) mixtures for flexible pavements. ABSTRACT Open‐Graded Friction Course (OGFC) mixtures in flexible pavements are known for their efficient drainage characteristics, but concerns exist regarding their structural weaknesses and short lifespans. This study investigates methods to improve the mechanical performance of OGFC
