Newton’s Regulae Philosophandi [PDF]

, 2018
Newton’s Regulae philosophandi — the rules for reasoning in natural philosophy — are maxims of causal reasoning and induction. This chapter reviews their significance for Newton’s method of inquiry, as well as their application to particular propositions

From Folding Mechanics to Robotic Function: A Unified Modeling Framework for Compliant Origami

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A geometry‐consistent DDG framework captures compliant origami deformation from rigid‐like folding to soft panel bending. By tuning crease and panel stiffness, bistable snap‐through responses transform into smooth monostable deformation, enabling programmable stability and robot‐scale locomotion.

An outline of Celestino Cominale’s (1722–1785) critique of Isaac Newton’s natural philosophical method

Galilæana
This essay examines Celestino Cominale’s (1722–1785) self-proclaimed ‘anti-Newtonianism’. Between 1754 and 1770, Cominale published four volumes under the title of Anti-Newtonianismi, in which he launched a sustained attack on Newton’s natural ...

Multi‐Scale Bionic Structure Constructs Biomass Flame‐Retardant Thermal Insulation Foam Material

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by mussel adhesion and hierarchical brick‐and‐mortar architectures, a cellulose‐based biomimetic foam is constructed by anchoring bentonite nanosheets onto a polydopamine‐decorated cellulose nanofiber network. The resulting foam combines low thermal conductivity with intrinsic flame retardancy and full biodegradability, presenting a ...

A Novel Geometric Modification to the Newton-Secant Method to Achieve Convergence of Order 1+2 and Its Dynamics

Modelling and Simulation in Engineering, 2015
A geometric modification to the Newton-Secant method to obtain the root of a nonlinear equation is described and analyzed. With the same number of evaluations, the modified method converges faster than Newton’s method and the convergence order of the new

Loss of LCN2 Function Ameliorates Glucocorticoid‐Induced Muscle Atrophy via Remodeling the Extracellular Matrix

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Glucocorticoids transcriptionally activate LCN2 expression via GR nuclear translocation. Secreted LCN2 binds MMP9 to degrade skeletal muscle ECM collagen, blocks integrin‐mediated mechanotransduction, bidirectionally disrupts muscle protein homeostasis, and reveals a novel target for steroid‐induced muscle atrophy.

Problems and solutions by the application of Julia set theory to one-dot and multi-dots numerical methods

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2001
In 1977 Hubbard developed the ideas of Cayley (1879) and solved in particular the Newton-Fourier imaginary problem. We solve the Newton-Fourier and the Chebyshev-Fourier imaginary problems completely.

A Bioinspired, Multimodal Soft Tactile Skin with Task‐Adaptive Perception for Intelligent Robotic Manipulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Perception in robotic manipulation improves through the cooperative and complementary operation of biologically inspired multimodal tactile sensors. Receptor‐specific contribution analysis identifies which sensing modalities are required for specific tactile tasks.

A numerical solution of parabolic quasi-variational inequality nonlinear using Newton-multigrid method [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Numerical Analysis and Optimization
In this article, we apply three numerical methods to study the L∞-convergence of the Newton-multigrid method for parabolic quasi-variational inequalities with a nonlinear right-hand side.
