Reconfigurable Design and Optimization‐Based Control of an Integrated Leg‐Arm Robot for Space Applications With an Underactuated Body

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A quadrupedal integrated leg‐arm robot with an underactuated reconfigurable body is developed. By using a Sarrus mechanism as the body, the robot enables reconfiguration through its supporting limbs, achieving mode switching without additional actuators.

Functional models from limited data: A parametric and multimodal approach to anatomy and 3D kinematics of feeding in basking sharks (Cetorhinus maximus)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Basking sharks, Cetorhinus maximus (Gunnerus, Brugden [Squalus maximus], Det Kongelige Norske Videnskabers Selskabs Skrifter, 1765, vol. 3, pp. 33–49), feed by gaping their mouths and gill slits, greatly reorienting their cranial skeletons to filter food from water.

Scanning Parametric Sediment Echosounder as Tool for Underwater Archaeological Prospection

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Underwater cultural heritage 3D prospection techniques, especially for remains that are partly buried in the ground, are only very rarely available and often can only be applied with considerable technical effort. To overcome this limitation, we evaluate a methodological adaption of widely used and available single channel parametric sediment ...

Awareness of the Black Triangle Scheme among healthcare professionals and consumers in Australia: A mixed‐methods study exploring reporting intentions and suggested improvements

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims The Black Triangle Scheme, introduced in 2018 in Australia, does not appear to have increased the quantity of adverse drug event (ADE) reports. This study evaluated healthcare professionals' (HCPs') and consumers' awareness of the scheme, its influence on intentions for future ADE reporting, and suggested improvements.

Learning Rocking Dynamics From Sparse Shake‐Table Data With Interpretable Physics‐Informed Neural Networks

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present a hybrid interpretable Physics‐Informed Neural Network Long‐Short Term Memory (Hybrid PINN LSTM) framework for predicting the seismic response of rocking blocks. Existing analytical models rely on uncertain idealizations, while purely data‐driven and machine‐learning approaches lack physical consistency and interpretability.
