Gait Analysis of Pak Biawak: A Necrobot Lizard Built using the Skeleton of an Asian Water Monitor (Varanus Salvator)

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Pak Biawak, a necrobot, embodies an unusual fusion of biology and robotics. Designed to repurpose natural structures after death, it challenges conventional boundaries between nature and engineering. Its movements are precise yet unsettling, raising questions about sustainability, ethics, and the untapped potential of biointegrated machines.

On the Interpretation of Gravity Wave Measurements by Ground-Based Lidars

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2017
This paper asks the simple question: How can we interpret vertical time series of middle atmosphere gravity wave measurements by ground-based temperature lidars? Linear wave theory is used to show that the association of identified phase lines with quasi-

Transformation of surface and internal waves on a bottom step [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A brief overview of works on transformation of surface and internal gravity waves over a bottom step is presented. The generalization of Lamb formulae for the transformation coefficients derived in the longwave approximation is discussed for waves of ...

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

On the Chemical Mixing Induced by Internal Gravity Waves

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2017
Abstract Detailed modeling of stellar evolution requires a better understanding of the (magneto)hydrodynamic processes that mix chemical elements and transport angular momentum. Understanding these processes is crucial if we are to accurately interpret observations of chemical abundance anomalies, surface rotation measurements, and ...

Fundamental Problems of Internal Gravity Waves Dynamics in Ocean

open access: yes, 2013
In paper fundamental problems of internal gravity waves dynamics are considered. The solution of this problem is expressed in terms of the Green’s function and the asymptotic representations of the solutions are considered.

Backpropagation Through Soft Body: Investigating Information Processing in Brain–Body Coupling Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study explores how information processing is distributed between brains and bodies through a codesign approach. Using the “backpropagation through soft body” framework, brain–body coupling agents are developed and analyzed across several tasks in which output is generated through the agents’ physical dynamics.

Nonlinear Gravity-Wave Effects on the Distribution of Chemical Constituents in a Vertically-Sheared Atmospheric Flow

open access: yesMathematics
The dynamical processes in the atmosphere are coupled with the chemistry of the atmosphere. Internal gravity waves influence the distribution of chemical constituents in the atmosphere through their effects on the background wind or mean flow. We examine
