Contact Force Estimation of Continuum Robots without Embedded Sensors: A Review
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This review surveys methods for estimating contact forces in continuum robots without embedded sensors. It explains why contact force matters, classifies force patterns, and groups existing methods into three approaches based on actuation, deformation, and environment information.

Metal‐Mediated Nitrogen Doping of Carbon Supports Boosts Hydrogen Production from Ammonia
Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.A virtuous catalytic cycle is established as the carbon support simultaneously tunes electron density and stores atomic nitrogen formed via Ru–N species during ammonia decomposition, resulting in self‐enhancing catalysis. Abstract Ammonia is an attractive hydrogen carrier, yet its practical use is limited by the need for efficient catalytic ...

Systematic Study of PDMS Optical Waveguides for Pressure Sensing Using Design of Experiments
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.A response surface methodology was used to systematically evaluate the impact of mix ratio and cure conditions on PDMS optical waveguide properties for pressure sensing. Mix ratio significantly influenced compression sensitivity, compressive modulus, and propagation loss, while cure temperature primarily affected refractive index.

A Review of Transient Characterization Techniques for Quantum Dot Light‐Emitting Diodes
Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.This review surveys transient characterization techniques for quantum dot light‐emitting diodes, including TRPL, TREL, TA, and E‐TA. These methods resolve carrier‐selective dynamics across multiple time scales, enabling direct analysis of charge injection, exciton formation and recombination, efficiency roll‐off, and device degradation.
