Contact Force Estimation of Continuum Robots without Embedded Sensors: A Review
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This review surveys methods for estimating contact forces in continuum robots without embedded sensors. It explains why contact force matters, classifies force patterns, and groups existing methods into three approaches based on actuation, deformation, and environment information.

Argon Cold Plasma Modification of Polyethylene Films to Tailor Surface and Barrier Properties
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.Argon cold plasma treatment of low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) and high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) films induces major changes in surface chemistry and morphology. Contact angles decrease significantly while surface energy increases, improving wettability. FTIR confirms the formation of polar functional groups, while pronounced etching, roughness, and

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.This study develops a novel non‐combustible chitosan‐based bioplastic (NCCB) via ethanol‐induced surface assembly. The material's inherent flame retardancy and thermally insulating, rough surface enable high‐performance TENGs. The NCCB‐TENG maintains stable output even when exposed to fire and exhibits dual sensitivity to temperature (25–200°C) and ...

Advances in Double‐Stranded DNA Targeting Technologies
Exploration, EarlyView.Double‐stranded DNA (dsDNA) plays a crucial role in genetic information storage and disease management, but its inherent stability limits access to internal bases. To overcome this challenge, various high‐specificity molecular targeting technologies have been developed to destabilize the DNA structure.
