Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Here, we present a textile, wearable capacitive interface enabling multidirectional remote control by dynamically modulating electrode overlap and spacing via a freely gliding upper electrode. A forearm‐mounted prototype drives robotic and media tasks with 12–15 ms latency, maintains < 0.8% drift after 500 cycles, and remains stably functional at 90 ...

Nationwide recycled steel slag pavements can stimulate sustainable urban transportation
Communications Earth & EnvironmentUrban road expansion supports economic growth but also locks in emissions and resource demand. A bottom-up, high-resolution framework was developed to assess national-scale climate, health and economic impacts of recycled steel slag pavements.

3D‐Printing Aided Rapid Prototyping of Pretensioned Tensegrity Structures for Robotic Applications
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Printing, injection molding, and assembly (PMA) is a method for rapid prototyping mesoscale, topologically complex, and tensioned tensegrity structures. In combination with PMA method, two mold design strategies: modular mold and compact channel layout, enable efficiency and scalability for tensegrity fabrication.

Improving Rutting Resistance of Pavement Structures Using Geosynthetics: An Overview
The Scientific World Journal, 2014 A pavement structure consists of several layers for the primary purpose of transmitting and distributing traffic loads to the subgrade. Rutting is one form of pavement distresses that may influence the performance of road pavements.

Suitability of Flyash-Lime-Phosphogypsum Composite in Road Pavements
, 2016 The paper presents the suitability of flyash-limephosphogypsum composite for its use in road pavements. The content of lime and phosphogypsum was varied from 2 to 10% and 0.5 to 4% respectively in flyash. The specimen prepared was cured for 7, 28, 56 and

Intelligent Micro/Nanorobots for Targeted Interventional Therapy: From Bench to Clinic
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Zirui Zhang et al. reviewed the application and challenges of mobile nanomachines in interventional therapy. By converting exogenous energy, including chemical, magnetic, optical, and ultrasonic sources, into mechanical forces, micro/nanorobots (MNRs) enable precise actuation at unprecedented scales. Evolving far beyond traditional drug delivery, these

Influence of road pavement macrotexture on tyre/road noise of vehicles
The Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2014 Noise level in the surroundings of traffic routes mainly depends from traffic volume, flow composition, speed of the vehicles as well as from the cross-section and road longitudinal gradient. Under higher speeds significant influence on the noise level has also tyre/road noise.
