Multimodal Locomotion of Soft Robots
This review comprehensively surveys recent advances in multimodal locomotion within soft robotics. Typical locomotion modes are summarized and categorized. Furthermore, the underlying mechanisms enabling multimodal locomotion are discussed and classified into three primary categories: active control‐based, reconfiguration‐based, and environment ...

From synchronization to multistability in two coupled quadratic maps
The phenomenology of a system of two coupled quadratic maps is studied both analytically and numerically. Conditions for synchronization are given and the bifurcations of periodic orbits from this regime are identified.

This work shows the successful integration of intrinsic bistability into thermoresponsive soft microactuators, fabricated by two‐photon polymerization utilizing the (E)–(Z)‐isomerization of azobenzenes. The bistable behavior accounts for a reversible volume change of Azo_pNIPAM microactuators initiated by light irradiation, at constant ambient ...

Static and Dry Friction due to Multiscale Surface Roughness
It is shown on the basis of scaling arguments that a disordered interface between two elastic solids will quite generally exhibit static and "dry friction" (i.e., kinetic friction which does not vanish as the sliding velocity approaches zero), because of

This work presents compact, low‐voltage actuators based on electropermanent magnetic interactions. The actuators show good overall performance across key metrics and are implemented in wearable devices and untethered robots. Their ability to operate in different configurations and hold positions without energy input highlights their potential for ...

Observation of Linear and Nonlinear Light Trapping on Topological Dislocations
Topological dislocations are global lattice defects found in various systems ranging from crystals to photonic lattices. This work reports the first observation at optical frequencies of linear modes with tunable localization bound to edge dislocations and their nonlinear counterparts ‐ dislocation solitons. These results reveal an intriguing interplay

Multistable Phase Locking Patterns in a Bursting Neural System [PDF]
We quantitatively analyze the multistability of dynamic patterns of a busting neural system with diffusive coupling. Through effective coupling analysis, we show that the system is not in-phase locking but exhibits various phase locking patterns, each of
