Analysis of attitude adjustment for airborne drilling rig of anchor excavator

open access: yesGong-kuang zidonghua
The deployment of the front drilling rig requires a significant amount of time before and after water exploration and drainage operations. Loading advanced drilling equipment on the anchor excavator can reduce equipment deployment time and improve ...

Behavioral differences of laying hens with fractured keel bones within furnished cages

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2016
High prevalence of keel bone fractures in laying hens is reported in all housing systems. Keel fractures have been associated with pain and restricted mobility in hens in loose housing.

Autonomous Hydrogel Actuators Programmed by Endogenous Biochemical Logic for Dual‐Stage Morphing and Drug Release

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printed BSA–PEGDA bilayer actuator performs biochemical logic, bending autonomously in acid and releasing its drug payload only when both acid and pepsin are present. This dual‐stage, enzyme‐gated mechanism enables autonomous catch‐and‐release motion and controlled gastric drug delivery, representing a programmable soft material powered by ...

Phase Engineering of Nanogold: Non‐Close Packed Square Planes in A′B′ Stacking with a 0.5 Å Channel

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Gold is well known to adopt the face‐centered‐cubic (fcc) structure. This work presents an unusual non‐close‐packed phase attained in a 40‐atom gold nanocluster, which is in contrast with the close‐packed fcc quasi‐isomer. The non‐compact structure exhibits exclusive square planes in a layer‐by‐layer stacking, hence, possessing a unique 0.5 Å channel ...

Topology and Material Optimization in Ultra‐Soft Magneto‐Active Structures: Making Advantage of Residual Anisotropies

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Residual magnetization induces pronounced mechanical anisotropy in ultra‐soft magnetorheological elastomers, shaping deformation and actuation even without external magnetic fields. This study introduces a computational‐experimental framework integrating magneto‐mechanical coupling into topology optimization for designing soft magnetic actuators with ...

Fabrication Technologies for Soft, Multimaterial Optical Fibers for In Vivo Diagnostics and Phototherapy, With a Focus on Extrusion Printing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Soft multimaterial optical fibers integrate multiple functionalities—such as waveguiding, side emission, sensing, drug delivery or actuation—into a single filament for wearable, implantable, and tissue‐integrated devices for diagnostics and phototherapy.

An Ultra‐Wideband Metasurface Perfect Absorber Based on Hybrid Absorption Modes

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
A Ge2Sb2Te5 metasurface absorber enables polarization‐independent, ultrabroadband (UV–NIR) light absorption with high angular tolerance. Its performance stems from overlapping electric and magnetic dipole resonances in a symmetric structure, achieving 94% average absorption and maintaining 83% even at 70° incidence, promising for integrated ...

A Proof‐of‐Concept Assessment of a Novel Wearable Eyelid Muscle Device: A Pre‐Clinical Animal Cadaver Study for Eyelid Closure Restoration

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article introduces a soft wearable eyelid sling device incorporating a hydraulic soft artificial muscle (SAM) for achieving complete closure of an eyelid. The SAM is driven by a cam mechanism that provides a displacement profile closely matched with those of a healthy eyelid.

Keel Fracture Causes Stress and Inflammatory Responses and Inhibits the Expression of the Orexin System in Laying Hens

open access: yesAnimals, 2019
Keel fracture has negative effects on the health and welfare of laying hens. We investigated effects of keel fracture on stress, inflammation, and the orexin system in laying hens.
