Maneuverable Multilegged Locomotion through Anisotropically Arranged Soft Backbones in a Single‐Actuator Modular Miniature Robot

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A modular eight‐legged robot exploits anisotropically oriented soft I‐beam backbones to transmit vibration from a single unbalanced‐mass actuator, producing frequency‐dependent multimodal gaits. A pseudo‐rigid‐body model enables high‐fidelity MuJoCo simulation, while Bayesian parameter identification and reinforcement learning yield robust control ...

Investigation of Hexagonal Honeycomb Topology for Impact Optimization in Energetic Material

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The regulation of the mechanical properties of energetic materials manufactured by traditional processes is constrained. However, the introduction of lattice structures can facilitate the regulation of mechanical properties without necessitating alterations to the materials themselves. Using finite element analysis and experimental validation,

Broadband Conductance Matching Effect in Conductive Metamirrors

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
A conductance matching effect is revealed in conductive metamirrors whose input conductance can be broadband self‐matched to the free space when the conductivity‐thickness product equals 8 mS. This effect enables thickness‐invariant perfect absorption at low frequencies, and tunable resonances at higher‐order modes, providing new opportunities for ...
