Bioinspired Soft‐Skeleton Robotics With Cooperative Shape Transformation and Stiffness Adaptation
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A bioinspired soft‐skeleton robot that integrates variable‐stiffness chain skeletons into a soft textile skin is developed. The chain skeletons are highly flexible initially but can stiffen upon pneumatic actuation, enabling large deformation and enhanced load‐bearing capacity.

Sliding without slipping under Coulomb friction: opening waves and inversion of frictional force
, 2016 An elastic layer slides on a rigid flat governed by Coulomb's friction law. We demonstrate that if the coefficient of friction is high enough, the sliding localizes within stick-slip pulses, which transform into opening waves propagating at intersonic ...

Effect of granulated rubber on shear strength of fine-grained sand
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2017 Review of the literature related to the mixture of shredded tire and sand shows that, despite of the increase in shear strength due to addition of tire chips, granulated rubber causes reduction in shear strength of sand. In this study, the shear behavior
