A Review of Robotic Surgery: Engineering Considerations and Future Directions From Surgeons' Perspectives

open access: yesThe International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery, Volume 22, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Since its initial inception, robotic‐assisted minimally invasive surgery (RAMIS) is continually being applied to a wider array of procedures. However, there are significant limitations in current surgical subsystems, including a large learning curve, lack of effective haptic feedback, decreased surgical intuition, and decreased ...

From Flybys to Sample Return: A Review of Space Probes and Robotic Sampling Technologies for Small Bodies

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 7, Page 4475-4514, October 2026.
ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Effects of Sediment‐Control Operations on Fish and Macroinvertebrate Communities in Dam Reservoirs

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 8, Page 1781-1798, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Sediments are avoided in many river and dam managements because of their adverse effects on water usage and flood control. Recently, sedimentation control measures, including sluicing, have been employed to manage sediments in river channels and restore communities in dammed rivers.

Spatial and Temporal Variations of Suspended Sediment Dynamics on a Lowland Meandering River Floodplain

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract The sediment dynamics of meandering‐river floodplains depend on floodplain‐channel hydrologic connectivity and on spatial variation in floodplain geomorphic features. Despite recognition of the importance of these factors, few past studies have characterized the sediment content of floodwater on floodplains.
