Multimodal Quad‐Finger Soft Robotic Hand With Dual‐Chamber Origami Actuator for Large‐Workspace Manipulation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A multimodal quad‐finger soft robotic hand (QDO hand) uses dual‐chamber straight–curved origami prismatic (SCOP) origami actuators. By coordinating positive and negative pressurization in the two chambers, each finger produces axial extension, contraction and bidirectional bending.

Respirable Dust Exposure in Western Australian Mining: Trends, Variability, and Implications for Occupational Health

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Mining workers are exposed to a range of respiratory hazards, including respirable dust. While exposure to respirable crystalline silica in the mining industry has been found to be common, less is known about trends in measured levels of exposure to respirable dust overall.

EVALUATION OF STRAIN-STRESS STATE OF THE RAILS IN THE PRODUCTION

open access: yesПриборы и методы измерений, 2017
High values of residual stresses is one of the most common reason of breaking lots of metal constructions, including rails. These stresses can reach values of flow limit, especially in the area of faults.

Stakeholder Perspectives on Therapeutic and Safe Building Design in Residential Care

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Residential care is a form of out‐of‐home care that plays a critical role in supporting vulnerable young people in Australia. However, there is an evidence gap regarding the built environment in this context. This research aimed to explore the perspectives of key stakeholders in residential care in Victoria, Australia, regarding design that ...

Toward Solution‐Time Advantage With Error‐Mitigated Quantum Annealing for Combinatorial Optimization

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
This paper presents a novel error mitigation technique to address the qubit errors that occur when solving combinatorial optimization problems with quantum annealing. The approach significantly speeds up the computation to reach the global optimum solution for a correlated 3D image segmentation model for material microstructures, demonstrating a ...
