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 ...

Arthroscopic Free Bone Block Transfer Technique Using Iliac Crest Autograft With Anchor‐Button Fixation for Glenohumeral Instability and Glenoid Bone Loss

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Bone block transfer for the treatment of glenohumeral instability with severe glenoid bone loss or multiple recurrences has grown in popularity in recent years. In this technical note, we described an arthroscopic‐assisted free bone block transfer technique, using a specially designed anchor‐button unit to treat glenohumeral instability caused
