Nonlocomotory Robotic Strategies for Dynamic Rotation Control in Terrestrial Robots: A Review
Terrestrial robots increasingly require rapid body rotation to maintain stability and agility in complex environments. This review shows nonlocomotory rotational control strategies that operate without ground contact, including reaction wheels, tails, bars, limbs, and thrusters.

A Semi-Quadratic Buck-Boost Converter with Two Operating Modes and a Sustained Input-Output Current for PV Applications [PDF]
This study introduces a non-isolated semi-quadratic DC/DC buck-boost converter designed to enhance performance. Derived from a conventional CUK converter, the proposed topology operates in two distinct modes: one providing a semi-quadratic voltage gain ...

This work presents a state‐adaptive Koopman linear quadratic regulator framework for real‐time manipulation of a deformable swab tool in robotic environmental sampling. By combining Koopman linearization, tactile sensing, and centroid‐based force regulation, the system maintains stable contact forces and high coverage across flat and inclined surfaces.

Numerical Modeling of Photothermal Self‐Excited Composite Oscillators
We present a numerical framework for simulating photothermal self‐excited oscillations. The driving mechanism is elucidated by highlighting the roles of inertia and overshoot, as well as the phase lag between the thermal moment and the oscillation angle, which together construct the feedback loop between the system state and the environmental stimulus.

A Soft Robotic Fish With a Dielectric Elastomer Actuator Body and Negative Stiffness Spine
This work introduces a bio‐mimetic soft robotic fish driven by fiber‐reinforced dielectric elastomer actuators integrated as its body. By prestretching this active skin against a flexible spine, a negative stiffness system is created, enabling large‐amplitude bending.

Reconfigurable Quadratic Converters for Electrolyzers Utilized in DC Microgrids
In this paper, three topologies of quadratic buck DC-DC converters were proposed that are capable of reconfiguring to semi-quadratic buck-boost converters, in case of an open-circuit fault in their power switch. In other words, with the aid of graph-based circuit synthesis concepts, a topology is obtained for a safe transition from one switch to ...
