Continuous and Large‐Scale: ELEANOR, the Soft Architected Arm Inspired by the Elephant Trunk

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A large‐scale, architected continuum robot inspired by the macroscopic properties of the African elephant trunk achieves adaptive elephant‐like movements and whole‐body grasping. The results demonstrate that designing from the natural system’s macroscopic properties, rather than prescribing behaviors, provides a powerful strategy for developing ...

The absence of women's scientific contributions in core UK pre‐university science qualifications

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite their groundbreaking contributions to our understanding of the natural world and the universe, women's roles in biology, chemistry, physics, astronomy, environmental science and geology remain largely absent from standard educational specifications in the United Kingdom (UK), particularly at Key Stage 4 (KS4) and Key Stage 5 (KS5), or ...

Laser Cutting of Kevlar Laminates, [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
An investigation has been conducted of the use of laser energy for cutting contours, diameters, and holes in flat and shaped Kevlar 49 fiber-reinforced epoxy laminates as an alternate to conventional machining. The investigation has shown that flat laminates 6.35 mm thick may be cut without backup by using a high-powered (1000-watt) continuous wave CO ...

KEVLAR-TZ: A Secure Cache for ARM TrustZone

open access: yesCoRR, 2021
Edge devices are increasingly in charge of storing privacy-sensitive data, in particular implantables, wearables, and nearables can potentially collect and process high-resolution vital signs 24/7. Storing and performing computations over such data in a privacy-preserving fashion is of paramount importance.

Aerogel Fiber: A One‐Dimensional Programmable Porous Matter for Next Thermal Management Materials

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.
Aerogel fibers are redefined as one‐dimensional programmable porous matter, where thermal transport is governed by multiscale pathway engineering. By reconstructing and decoupling transport pathways from molecular to textile scales, these systems integrate insulation, radiative cooling, and adaptive thermal regulation.
