Modeling and Characterization of a Self‐Sensing Soft Hydraulic Muscle

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article presents the self‐sensing soft hydraulic muscle (SSHM), a novel soft actuator capable of simultaneously sensing force and length without external sensors. A comprehensive model accurately predicts SSHM behavior, validated experimentally with minimal errors. Using propylene glycol enhances durability and reduces hysteresis.

Towards Advanced Intelligent and Perceptive Soft Grippers

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Implementing soft yet strong and intelligent soft grippers request innovative and creative solutions in designing soft bodies and seamlessly integrating actuated systems with hierarchical sensing. This review systematically analyses soft grippers with a deep understanding of core components, from fundamental design principles to actuation and sensing ...

Economy of Touch : Task‐Driven Information Selection in Electrical Impedance Tomography‐based Tactile Robotic Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) tactile skins enable multiplexed measurements that trade sensing speed against information richness. This work introduces an economy‐of‐touch framework that treats tactile sensing as an information‐budgeting problem.

Evaluation of fall‐seeded cover crops for grassland nesting waterfowl in eastern South Dakota

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView., 2023
Cover crops are experiencing a revival among Midwestern farmers, and we assessed their attractiveness and safety for nesting ducks in South Dakota. Nest success was markedly lower in cover crops than in perennial cover during both years of our study, including 2019 which was a best‐case scenario for cover crops, with extremely wet conditions delaying ...

MagNanoTrap Enrichment Empowers Ultra‐Sensitive Quantification of Mixed Nanoplastic Particles From Environmental Water Samples

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Fe3O4 nanoparticles coated with the bifunctional peptide LCI‐DZ‐MBP1, where LCI binds the iron oxide surface and MBP1 acts as a universal plastic‐binding peptide, combined with pyrolysis‐gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py‐GC/MS), enable efficient enrichment, precise detection, and quantification of mixed plastics (PS, PE, PP, PET, PMMA, PC, Nylon
