Hopfield Neural Networks for Online Constrained Parameter Estimation With Time‐Varying Dynamics and Disturbances

open access: yesInternational Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.
This paper proposes two projector‐based Hopfield neural network (HNN) estimators for online, constrained parameter estimation under time‐varying data, additive disturbances, and slowly drifting physical parameters. The first is a constraint‐aware HNN that enforces linear equalities and inequalities (via slack neurons) and continuously tracks the ...

Analytic Model for Quadruped Locomotion Task-Space Planning

open access: yes, 2019
Despite the extensive presence of the legged locomotion in animals, it is extremely challenging to be reproduced with robots. Legged locomotion is an dynamic task which benefits from a planning that takes advantage of the gravitational pull on the system.

Synergistic Roles of FAHD‐1 and PYC‐1 in Mitochondrial Function, Behavior, and Longevity in C. elegans

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
FAHD‐1 and PYC‐1 catalyze opposing mitochondrial reactions that regulate oxaloacetate homeostasis in Caenorhabditis elegans. Using single and double knockouts, this study reveals that both enzymes shape locomotion, reproduction, respiration, and lifespan.

Geometric Optimization and Mechanical Performance Enhancement of Auxetic Structures for High‐Impact Applications Through Fused Deposition Modeling

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study explores the mechanical performance of three auxetic structures, identifying a re‐entrant‐star hybrid as the most effective for impact absorption. Finite element simulations and experiments demonstrate significant gains in energy absorption and flexural strength after geometric optimization. This study investigates the mechanical performance
