Thermally Responsive Architected Actuators with Programmable Shape Morphing and Tunable Stiffness

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A tunable‐stiffness architected morphing structure enables programmable shape transformation and load‐bearing functionality through thermal activation. By tessellating rigid particles with shape memory alloy‐based soft connectors, the system achieves simultaneous morphing and stiffness modulation.

A Soft Pneumatic Exosuit to Assist Pronosupination in Individuals with Spinal Cord Injury

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A lightweight (30 g) textile‐based pneumatic exosuit assists forearm pronosupination in individuals with cervical spinal cord injury. The soft robot enhances forearm range of motion and reduces muscle effort without hindering hand function. Tested in 10 patients during an interactive exergame, it improves motor performance and demonstrates promise for ...

Evolutionary Codesign and Fabrication of Tensegrity Joints with Integrated Pneumatic Artificial Muscles

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a tensegrity joint with pneumatic artificial muscles integrated directly into its tensile network. Inspired by tensegrity spine structures, the joint's topology is developed and further optimized through an evolutionary algorithm, taking into account fabrication constraints and target applications.

Expert Strategies: Skull Base Reconstruction—Global Perspectives, Insights, and Algorithms through a Mixed Methods Approach

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective There is limited consensus on endoscopic skull base surgery (ESBS) reconstruction principles. This study aims to generate comprehensive themes regarding ESBS reconstruction by pooling the experiences of ESBS experts, with comparison to a literature review of current published evidence.
