Design and Characterization of a Two‐Dimensional Soft Array Based on Cooperative Dielectric Elastomer Actuators

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A fully polymeric two‐dimensional array of Dielectric Elastomers enables self‐sensing, cooperative actuation, and large‐stroke operation in a DE‐based autonomous conveyor. Based only on voltage and current measurements at actuator level, the system detects the presence of a ball and subsequently drives it toward a target position.

Tidal capture and repeating partial tidal disruption events of giant stars

Astronomy & Astrophysics
When an object is scattered near a supermassive black hole (SMBH), tidal oscillations excited within it reduce its orbital energy, leading to capture by the SMBH.

Simulation of the Motion of Stars Escaping from the Galactic Center

Open Astronomy, 2015
Motions of stars escaping from the Galactic center are simulated. It is shown that the Galactic bar reduces the initial velocity needed to escape from the Galaxy.

Dynamic Precise and Imprecise Probability Kinematics

, 2021
We introduce dynamic probability kinematics (DPK), a method for an agent to mechanically update subjective beliefs in the presence of partial information. We then generalize DPK to dynamic imprecise probability kinematics (DIPK), which allows the agent to express their initial beliefs via a set of probabilities in order to further take ambiguity into ...

Kinematical and dynamical properties of recently discovered bulge and disc star clusters with WINERED

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Galactic globular clusters are a very important tool in explaining the characteristics of the Milky Way. Therefore it is essential to determine the kinematical and dynamical properties of the new star cluster candidates, especially at the low ...

Kinematics, dynamics, and the scale of time [PDF]

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A - Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1937
Abstract 1—In two previous papers the laws of dynamics and the Newtonian approximation to the law of gravitation have been derived on a purely kinematic basis. That is, they have been deduced rationally, starting from the individual observer’s awareness of a temporal sequence for events at himself, and from his assigning of measures ...

The velocity field of the Scorpius-Centaurus OB association

Astronomy & Astrophysics
We present a nonparametric reconstruction of the three-dimensional velocity field of the Scorpius-Centaurus OB association (Sco-Cen). Using Gaia DR3 astrometry and radial velocities, we inferred the velocity field using information field theory on a 70 ×

Programming of Complex Magnetic Profiles Enforced by 4D Printed Magnetic LCE Actuators

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A 4D printing‐enabled magnetic programming strategy is introduced in which thermally actuated liquid crystal elastomers are magnetized in their target shape to encode complex three‐dimensional magnetic profiles. The resulting actuators achieve multistate shape morphing and programmable locomotion under low magnetic fields, without requiring specialized
