Bionic Tactile Skins for Robotics: Fundamentals, Advances, and Future Prospects

open access: yesSmartSys, Volume 2, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Robotic bionic tactile skins (RBTSs), as crucial components of next‐generation robotic systems, have attracted significant attention in recent years. By enabling robots to achieve human‐like tactile perception and interact effectively with their surroundings, RBTSs play an essential role in enhancing robotic intelligence.

Black Fugitivity in the Sporting Workplace: The Story of Eniola Aluko

open access: yesGender, Work &Organization, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 1914-1926, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Being a Black fugitive involves constant movement: to find and cultivate spaces of safety and hope. In this paper, I curate a sporting archive about the UK Black women's elite football player Eniola Aluko to read her as a Black fugitive. I demonstrate how she traversed a racist and anti‐Black sporting workplace—where she was unfairly demonized

Pragmatism, Dual‐Process Theory, and the Study of Reflective Cognition

open access: yesJournal for the Theory of Social Behaviour, Volume 56, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This article advances dual‐process theory (DPT) by developing a pragmatist framework for the study of reflective cognition. Although dual‐process models were introduced to sociology via Bourdieusian practice theory, Bourdieusian DPT has proven inadequate for theorising reflective cognition and action, with sociologists looking to pragmatism as

Adaptive Matrix‐Free Simulations of Fluid‐Filled Phase‐Field Fractures With Fixed‐Stress Coupling and Fracture‐Width Computation

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 15, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Fluid‐filled phase‐field fracture simulations require robust, scalable solvers that can handle strongly nonlinear, non‐smooth mechanics and tightly coupled flow on locally refined meshes. In this work, we develop an adaptive finite element framework for quasi‐static, fluid‐filled phase‐field fractures that combines semi‐smooth Newton methods ...

Interplay Between Bound State in the Continuum and the Generalized Kerker Effect in Plasmonic Metasurfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
A plasmonic metasurface comprising gold cylinders of tailored dimensions exhibits simultaneously the generalized Kerker effect and a bound state in the continuum, allowing for a detailed study of the subtle interplay between these phenomena. The numerical simulation results are in good agreement with experimental measurements, and the underlying ...
