Auditory–Tactile Congruence for Synthesis of Adaptive Pain Expressions in RoboPatients
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.In this work, we explore auditory–tactile congruence for synthesizing adaptive vocal pain expressions in robopatients. Using a robopatient platform that integrates vocal pain sounds with palpation forces, we conducted 7680 trials across 20 participants.

An Integrated NLP‐ML Framework for Property Prediction and Design of Steels
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study presents a data‐driven framework that uses language‐processing techniques to interpret steel processing descriptions and machine‐learning models to predict mechanical properties. By organising complex process histories into meaningful groups and enabling rapid property forecasts, the work supports faster, more informed steel design through ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The pre‐regenerative vascular niche (PVN) is essential for nerve repair, yet its endothelial blueprint remains unclear. We identified angiogenic ECs (AECs) as the dominant pre‐regenerative subset and found that antler blood–derived exosomes (AB‐EXO) promote repair via IMP3.

Mechanism of overburden fracture induced earthquakes in coal seam mining
Geomechanics and Geophysics for Geo-Energy and Geo-ResourcesMining-induced earthquakes are unnatural seismic events that frequently occur in high-position hard and thick rock strata during coal mining. Considering the frequent occurrence of strong mining-induced earthquakes in the Dongtan mining area, this study ...
