A Soft Microrobot for Single‐Cell Transport, Spheroid Assembly, and Dual‐Mode Drug Screening

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A soft, untethered hydrogel microrobot enables precise single‐cell delivery, self‐assembly into 3D spheroids, and real‐time thermal actuation. Driven by light‐induced convection and embedded with gold nanorods and temperature sensors, the microrobot guides cells, modulates local microenvironments, and supports drug testing.

Numerical Simulation of the Maneuvering Motion Wake of an Underwater Vehicle in Stratified Fluid

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
When a vehicle moves underwater, disturbance is generated and a wake remains that destroys the original free surface and produces a new wake. In order to study the mechanism and characteristics of the wave-making wake generated by the maneuvering motion ...

Liquid Metal Microrobots for Magnetically Guided Transvascular Navigation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Liquid metal‐based microrobots combine magnetic steering, intrinsic X‐ray visibility and softness, to navigate blood vessels even against flow. Under clinically relevant magnetic fields, liquid metal microrobots roll along vessel walls, cross endothelial barriers, and accumulate in target tissues.

Stability Versus Maneuverability in Aquatic Locomotion [PDF]

open access: yesIntegrative and Comparative Biology, 2002
The dictionary definition of stability as "Firmly established, not easily to be changed" immediately indicates the conflict between stability and maneuverability in aquatic locomotion. The present paper addresses several issues resulting from these opposing requirements. Classical stability theory for bodies moving in fluids is based on developments in

From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Neuroendoscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robotic assistance has had minimal impact on deep intraventricular surgeries, where small‐scale, precision, and reduced invasiveness can contribute to improved patient outcomes. Emerging technologies in rigid, soft, and hybrid robotics are reviewed to identify the most promising mechanisms for deep brain navigation in addition to an attempt to identify

Snake robot uncovers secrets to sidewinders’ maneuverability [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2015
A hallmark of animal life is the ability to move through the environment to catch prey, avoid predators, or find mates. Animals achieve this using a staggering diversity of locomotor strategies despite having similar body shape and being subjected to similar physics—e.g., gazelles pronk and cheetahs gallop.
