Stiffness‐Programmable Origami Robots With Tendon‐Driven Actuation via Multimaterial 3D Printing
Motion diversity is achieved in a tendon‐driven origami robot through programmable stiffness rather than modified actuation. Multimaterial 3D printing embeds soft creases, modular inserts redirect identical tendon inputs into distinct behaviors, and variable‐stiffness inserts enable real‐time switching.

WorMa is an amphibious undulatory robot that uses Center of Mass redistribution as the sole terrain adaptation mechanism. This mechanism is based on internal fluid mass redistribution through a pump‐driven latex balloon system that creates three profiles: head‐biased, balanced, and tail‐biased.

Time History Gaussian Process Regression for Modeling the Dynamics of Ankle Exoskeleton User Comfort
Exoskeletons need to be comfortable, but the perception of comfort may change over time. This study investigated if short‐term time history directly influences comfort. No previous trials’ input features were predictive of comfort. Including the previous trial's comfort score marginally improved model accuracy compared to a model using only the current

The Relationship Between Exchange Rates and Inflation Targeting Revisited [PDF]
This paper deals with the relationship between inflation targeting and exchange rates. I address three specific issues: first, I analyze the effectiveness of nominal exchange rates as shock absorbers in countries with inflation targeting.

Distributed Micropneumatic Sensors for Soft Robots to Detect Touch and Pose
Soft robots need integrated touch and pose sensing for safe and reliable operation. This work presents a three‐fingered soft gripper with 18 micropneumatic sensors made from the same materials as its pneumatic actuators. By measuring airflow resistance changes in deforming microchannels of the sensors, finger pose and contact are detected, enabling ...

EFFICIENT POLICY RULEFOR INFLATION TARGETING INCOLOMBIA [PDF]
In a small macroeconomic model of the Colombian economy I investigate the problem of selecting an efficient simple policy rule - rules that exploit a reduced information set-that is consistent with inflation targeting. Even though simple policy rules are

On the role of money growth targeting under inflation targeting regime. [PDF]
The mainstream inflation-targeting literature makes the strong assumption that the central bank can exactly target the interest rate which affects investment and consumption decisions and hence the money supply plays no role in the monetary policy ...
