Model predictive control architecture for rotorcraft inverse simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A novel inverse simulation scheme is proposed for applications to rotorcraft dynamic models. The algorithm adopts an architecture that closely resembles that of a model predictive control scheme, where the controlled plant is represented by a high-order ...

FiN‐Kiri: Fabric‐Based Inflatable Kirigami Actuator for Multimodal Soft Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study introduces a type of inflatable fabric‐based kirigami actuator capable of performing bending motion. The actuator is utilized as soft grippers, a crawling robot and a swimming robot. The crawling robot demonstrated extraordinary motion capabilities, such as moving forward, turning and navigating a narrow tunnel.

Biomechanics of predator–prey arms race in lion, zebra, cheetah and impala [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The fastest and most manoeuvrable terrestrial animals are found in savannah habitats, where predators chase and capture running prey. Hunt outcome and success rate are critical to survival, so both predator and prey should evolve to be faster and/or more

Strong tracking SCKF based on adaptive CS model for manoeuvring aircraft tracking

open access: yesIET radar, sonar & navigation, 2018
A novel tracking algorithm is proposed by the integration of the adaptive current statistical (CS) model and the modified strong tracking (ST) square-root cubature Kalman filter (SCKF) for the manoeuvring aircraft tracking problem.

Biodegradable Carbonate Nanogels Loaded with Anti MFAP‐5 siRNA for Anti‐stromal Therapy of Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Polycarbonate nanogels enable lipid‐free delivery of anti‐MFAP‐5 siRNA into cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAF) in hepatocellular carcinoma. In a cirrhotic murine model, this approach silences MFAP‐5, reduces fibroblast activation, and suppresses tumor growth by inhibiting NOTCH/Hes1‐driven angiogenesis. CAF‐targeted MFAP‐5 RNAi and conserved signaling

Investigation of Vessel Manoeuvring Abilities in Shallow Depths by Applying Neural Networks

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
A set of planar motion mechanism experiments of the Duisburg Test Case Post-Panamax container model executed in a towing tank with shallow depth is applied to train a neural network to analyse the ability of the proposed model to learn the effects of ...

Non‐myopic scheduling method of mobile sensors for manoeuvring target tracking

open access: yesIET radar, sonar & navigation, 2019
Multi-sensor cooperative scheduling has been the main mean to gather intelligence information due to the complexity of the battlefield environment and variability of targets.

MELEGROS: Monolithic Elephant‐Inspired Gripper with Optical Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
MELEGROS is a monolithic, elephant‐inspired soft gripper integrating 3D‐printed optical sensors within a pneumatically actuated lattice. Simulation‐guided design decouples tactile and proprioceptive sensing. Characterized through grasping tests, MELEGROS can reach, scoop, and grasp, showcasing a paradigm where fully embedded sensing and continuous ...
