THE SURVEY AND THE ANALYSIS OF ROCK JOINT AND THE DETERMINATION OF JOINTED ROCK MASS MODEL
原位置においてボーリング孔壁観察を行い, 得られた画像データをもとに不連続面の位置, 走向・傾斜, 開口幅等を画像処理により求めた. これらの結果を解析することにより, 2種類の不連続性岩盤のモデル化を行った. 一つは, 方向分析によって得られる不連続面群を用いた不連続体モデルである. 本研究では, 頻度, 面積, 開口幅を考慮した不連続面群の相対重要度を比較するパラメータの提案を行い, 実際の計測結果に適用を行った. もう一つは, 地質構造や不連続面の開口幅を考慮にいれて求めるき裂頻度をもとにした擬似連続体モデルの提案を行った. これにより, 変形性や透水性を検討する解析モデルや, ジオトモグラフィー解析などの精度向上に貢献する初期モデルの構築に利用できるものと考える.

Modeling of a jointed rock mass under triaxial conditions
One of the most important aspects of designing a structure on or in a rock mass is based on the strength response of a jointed rock mass. Understanding this important aspect, the present study was undertaken to understand the strength response of a ...

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures
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.

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.

Automated poultry processing lines still rely on humans to lift slippery, easily bruised carcasses onto a shackle conveyor. Deformability, anatomical variance, and hygiene rules make conventional suction and scripted motions unreliable. We present ChicGrasp, an end‐to‐end hardware‐software co‐designed imitation learning framework, to offer a ...

Strength criterion of rock mass considering the damage and effect of joint dip angle
It is highly significant to theoretically assess the effect, under load, of initial stress and structure on the mass damage of rock mass. In this reported study, first a multi-factor coupling damage constitutive model under the action of joint-load was ...

Compliant Pneumatic Feet with Real‐Time Stiffness Adaptation for Humanoid Locomotion
A compliant pneumatic foot with real‐time variable stiffness enables humanoid robots to adapt to changing terrains. Using onboard vision and pressure control, the foot modulates stiffness within each gait cycle, reducing impact forces and improving balance. The design, cast in soft silicone with embedded air chambers and Kevlar wrapping, offers durable,
