Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

Advanced Robotics Research, Volume 2, Issue 5, October 2026.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.

Comparative Performance of Kenyan and Imported Artemia in Early Larval Rearing of Clarias gariepinus

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Successful larval rearing of fish depends largely on live feed availability, during the critical first‐feeding stage. In Kenya, hatcheries commonly use phytoplankton or imported Artemia cysts as starter feeds, although locally produced Artemia is available. Hatchery operators' reports on low larval survival when using imported Artemia prompted

Estimating Environmental RF‐EMF Exposure From Mobile Networks Using Signal Indicators Collected With the ETAIN 5G Scientist App

Bioelectromagnetics, Volume 47, Issue 7, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Smartphones track indicators of a reference signal to maintain network connectivity. These can serve as proxies for a subset of environmental radiofrequency electromagnetic field (RF‐EMF) exposure from mobile networks. In this multi‐country study, we developed conversion functions linking signal indicators collected with the ETAIN 5G‐Scientist
