Origami‐Inspired Structural Design for Aquatic‐Terrestrial Amphibious Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work presents a lightweight amphibious origami robot actuated by a single shape memory alloy wire. A rigid foldable origami structure with displacement amplification enables efficient terrestrial crawling and aquatic swimming. The addition of fan‐shaped units allows controllable turning in both environments.

Using Bayesian Optimization to Increase the Efficiency of III‐V Multijunction Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
Technology Computer Aided Design (TCAD) modeling is crucial for designing complex optoelectronic devices like III‐V multijunction solar cells. Bayesian optimization is proposed as a robust method to address challenges in optimizing costly black‐box TCAD solvers.

2-D numerical experiments of thermal convection of highly viscous fluids under strong adiabatic compression: implications on mantle convection of super-Earths with various sizes

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
We conduct a series of numerical experiments of thermal convection of compressible fluids with temperature-dependent viscosity, in order to study how the adiabatic compression and model geometries affect the mantle convection on super-Earths.

Bioinspired Twisted Artificial Muscles with Enhanced Performance for Underwater Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A climbing plant‐inspired twisted artificial muscle (TAM) with a braided configuration and seal‐inspired thermal insulation enables high‐performance underwater actuation. Enhanced deformation, reduced heat dissipation, and rapid motion are validated through a bionic ray that exhibits straight and turning motions.
