Z-Drive Escort Tug manoeuvrability model and simulation
, 2019 The ability to predict the tug’s handling, effectiveness, and safety at early design stage is paramount in view of an optimal design process. In this framework, the availability of a reliable manoeuvrability prediction model is beneficial.

Adult Sex Ratio as a Demographic Feedback Linking Mating Systems, Parental Care, and Evolution
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Breeding systems are some of the most diverse social behavior, and our team is investigation the evolutionary causes of this diversity. This review summarises our research carried out at the University of Bath. We argue that demographic components of wild populations, especially the adult sex ratio, plays a key role driving breeding system variation ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.An origami worm‐inspired robot achieves multimodal locomotion in confined pipelines through mechatronic integration that embeds actuation, control, and communication within each origami module. Large, reversible configuration and dimensional changes enable 25 gaits synthesized by a unified framework across peristaltic, inchworm, and wheel‐rolling modes

Fine morphology of experimental tail streamers and flight manoeuvrability in the house martin Delichon urbica [PDF]
, 2009 Summary 1. Recent studies suggest that long tail streamers (narrow outermost tail feathers) of the barn swallow Hirundo rustica , Linnaeus have initially evolved purely via natural selection for enhanced manoeuvrability. According to an alternative view,

Brain‐Computer Interface Training Fosters Perceptual Skills to Detect Errors
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Accurate perception of visuomotor errors underpins motor precision and learning, yet conventional behavioral training fails to improve sensitivity to subtle errors. Real‐time EEG‐based brain‐computer interface feedback targeting the error positivity component enhances perceptual learning of small errors.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Coacervate droplets formed via liquid–liquid phase separation offer unique opportunities as microreactors and delivery vehicles due to their ability to selectively concentrate biomolecules and support biochemical reactions. However, their passive nature severely restricts precise spatial and temporal control, posing barriers to practical ...
