Miniaturized Hyper-Redundant Manipulator Using Multi-Cable for Minimally Invasive Surgery

IEEE Access
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) using robots minimizes patient injury but is challenging due to reduced bending force in smaller-diameter tools. Lowering the bending resistance of actuating cables is critical, particularly when tool diameters are small ...

Atypical Predictive Processing Is Associated With Sensory Over‐Responsivity in Autism

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism is characterized by sensory processing atypicalities including sensory over‐responsivity (SOR), a heightened negative response to sensory stimuli. Although the neural mechanisms underlying SOR are not fully understood, SOR has been associated with sensory‐limbic hyper‐reactivity during sensory stimulation.

Chlorella vulgaris biorefineries: sustainable biofuels and high‐value carbon capture

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Global reliance on fossil fuels has created urgent economic and environmental challenges, yet large‐scale use of algal biomass remains limited by production costs. Industrial scaling is constrained by inefficient harvesting and the technical challenges of processing recalcitrant cell walls.

A General Numerical Method for Hyper-Redundant Manipulator Inverse Kinematics [PDF]

, 1993
Hyper-redundant robots have a very large or infinite degree of kinematic redundancy. A generalized resolved-rate technique for solving hyper-redundant manipulator inverse kinematics using a backbone curve is introduced.

Mindfulness and resilience: The experiences of global majority students in a mindfulness intervention Programme at a UK university

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Wellbeing in higher education (HE) in the United Kingdom has been increasingly prioritised for many institutions, with a growing demand for student support requests. There are various determinants in life that can influence mental health. As such, protected characteristics, including race, can indicate that students who are Black or Asian ...

Hyper-linked

, 2020
Hyper-linked is an exhibition for the digital realm, presenting new projects by seven contemporary Australian artists. Each is alert to the almost paradoxical fact that we are experiencing mass disconnect in an age of hyper-connectivity.

Do Governance Structures Drive Green Building Adoption? A Machine Learning Approach With Random Forests

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the determinants of firms' propensity to adopt green buildings in the Euro Stoxx 300 and the S&P 500 indices, during 2012–2023. Using random forest binary classifiers, we assess the relative importance of financial, sectoral, geographic, and climate governance predictors and uncover nonlinear relationships often overlooked ...
