Bioinspired Soft‐Skeleton Robotics With Cooperative Shape Transformation and Stiffness Adaptation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A bioinspired soft‐skeleton robot that integrates variable‐stiffness chain skeletons into a soft textile skin is developed. The chain skeletons are highly flexible initially but can stiffen upon pneumatic actuation, enabling large deformation and enhanced load‐bearing capacity.

In the hyperbolic theory of special relativity is space also hyperbolic?

open access: yes
In the hyperbolic theory of special relativity the space of velocities, the kinematic space, is hyperbolic of radius of negative curvature c the velocity of light. Space itself could be either Euclidean or hyperbolic.

The Hyperbolic Factor: a Measure of Decreasing Impatience [PDF]

open access: yes
Many studies have found that discounting is hyperbolic rather than constant. Hyperbolicdiscounting is becoming increasingly popular in economic applications.

Strategic Design of Soft Actuators in Translational Medical Robotics for Human‐Centered Healthcare

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Soft robotics enables biocompatible, compliant medical devices, but clinical translation requires design‐driven engineering beyond materials. This perspective reviews implantable, surgical, and wearable systems by actuation mechanism, highlighting how optimized architectures and integration improve mechanical interfacing, adaptability, and durability ...

Modeling Heavy-Tailed Stock Index Returns Using the Generalized Hyperbolic Distribution [PDF]

open access: yes
In the present study, we estimate the parameters of the Generalized Hyperbolic Distribution for a series of stock index returns including the Romanian BETC and indexes from other two Eastern European countries, Hungary and the Czech Republic.

FiN‐Kiri: Fabric‐Based Inflatable Kirigami Actuator for Multimodal Soft Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study introduces a type of inflatable fabric‐based kirigami actuator capable of performing bending motion. The actuator is utilized as soft grippers, a crawling robot and a swimming robot. The crawling robot demonstrated extraordinary motion capabilities, such as moving forward, turning and navigating a narrow tunnel.

On residualizing homomorphisms preserving quasiconvexity

open access: yes, 2005
H is called a G-subgroup of a hyperbolic group G if for any finite subset M G there exists a homomorphism from G onto a non-elementary hyperbolic group G_1 that is surjective on H and injective on M. In his paper in 1993 A. Ol'shanskii gave a description

Introducing PNEUMA: A Hybrid Soft Pneumatic Fabric Bidirectional Actuation Module for Wearable Robotics

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study presents a soft pneumatic fabric bidirectional actuation module (PNEUMA) capable of generating high torque in both bending directions within a single integrated architecture. PNEUMA achieves up to 50 Nm with reduced inflation volume and a lightweight design.
