Evolution of Physical Intelligence Across Scales
By following the evolution of physical intelligence across scales, this article shows how intelligence arises from materials, structures, physical interactions, and collectives. It establishes physical intelligence as the evolutionary foundation upon which embodied intelligence is built.

Scaled rolling contact fatigue tests, used to practically simulate the wear of the wheel and rail material under laboratory conditions, are typically classified into two categories. Tests in the first category use twin-disc stands, while the second group

Propulsion on a superhydrophobic ratchet [PDF]
Liquids in the Leidenfrost state were shown by Linke to self-propel if placed on ratchets. The vapour flow below the liquid rectified by the asymmetric teeth entrains levitating drops by viscosity. This effect is observed above the Leidenfrost temperature of the substrate, typically 200°C for water.

An Assessment of Kinematic Hardening Thermal Ratcheting
Analytical comparisons are made between the thermal ratcheting response of a kinematic hardening material, a perfectly plastic, and an isotropic hardening material for a two-element assembly.

Thermal structural ratcheting simulation—Evaluation of industrial-used constitutive models
International audienceThis article presents an evaluation of the performance of conventional constitutive models in modelling the structural ratcheting of an austenitic stainless steel structure subjected to a thermomechanical loading.

Abstract The ray‐finned fishes include one out of every two species of living vertebrates on Earth and have an abundant fossil record stretching 380 million years into the past. The division of systematic knowledge of ray‐finned fishes between paleontologists working on extinct animals and neontologists studying extant species has obscured the ...

Study on ratcheting of beams under the combination of gravity and seismic load
Ratcheting is one common phenomenon under excessive earthquakes. This study focuses on clarifying the ratcheting mechanism of beams subjected to the combination of gravity and seismic loadings. The sinusoidal excitations or their combinations represented

In an experimental study that simulated a fast breeder reactor (FBR) vessel near the coolant surface, it was reported that the long distance travel of temperature distribution causes a new type of thermal ratcheting, even in the absence of primary stress.

Bacterial ratchet motors [PDF]
Self-propelling bacteria are a nanotechnology dream. These unicellular organisms are not just capable of living and reproducing, but they can swim very efficiently, sense the environment, and look for food, all packaged in a body measuring a few microns.
