Routing Optimization of Cable‐Driven Octopus‐Inspired Manipulators With Minimal Actuation via Genetic Algorithm and Finite Element Method

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Soft robotic arms are promising for gentle grasping but often rely on bulky actuation systems. This work presents a computational design framework that optimizes tendon number and routing to achieve target grasps with fewer actuators. Validated on an octopus‐inspired underwater arm, the approach enables efficient, underactuated soft manipulators for ...

Research on the Detoxification of Municipal Solid Waste Incineration Fly Ash: Organic Acid Washing Pretreatment Coupled With Cement/DDTC Stabilization

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heavy metals in municipal waste incineration fly ash are potentially harmful to the ecological environment and human health. To mitigate the hazards of fly ash, this study attempts to detoxify fly ash through organic acid washing pretreatment coupled with cement/sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (DDTC) solidification.

An Exploratory Study on Graphene‐Based Hybrid Epoxy Coatings for Corrosion Resistance and Self‐Healing

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Corrosion of metallic process equipment in chemical, marine, and offshore industries leads to significant maintenance costs and safety concerns. Conventional epoxy coatings, though widely applied, often deteriorate under harsh conditions due to microcracking, moisture ingress and lack of self‐healing capability.
