Recent advances in radio controlled model testing

, 2010
Self propelled models under radio control have been used for many years to assess the manoeuvring and handling of ships. The limitations for testing small, fast craft have been linked to the low model weight required and the ability to install enough ...

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 ...

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

Journal 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 ...

A Worm‐Inspired Origami Robot with Multimodal Locomotion for Adaptive Mobility in Complex Pipeline Environments

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

Performance Estimation and Ex Vivo Validation of Untethered Magnetic Robots in Soft Tissue

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents an empirical model that quantitatively predicts the step‐out frequency of screw‐type untethered magnetic robots (UMRs) in soft viscoelastic environments, including ex vivo brain tissue. By integrating key parameters into a dimensionless framework, the model enables estimation of robot performance across a range of biological ...

An Interpretable, Data‐Driven, Hierarchical Multi‐Domain Fusion Framework for Classification and Motor Function Scoring in Chronic Ankle Instability

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An AI‐enabled digital twin framework integrates wearable EMG sensing with hierarchical multi‐domain fusion to classify chronic ankle instability, distinguish clinically relevant subtypes, and generate continuous motor function scores. Clinically interpretable functional stratification and SHAP‐based biomarker analysis provide transparent decision ...
