Actuation Strategies for Underwater Jet‐Propelled Soft Robots

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review article examines jet‐propulsion mechanisms in underwater soft robotic systems, focusing exclusively on physically fabricated and experimentally validated robots. Covering research published from 2013 to 2025, this study classifies and evaluates jet‐propulsion robots based on their actuation mechanisms.

Hereditary Polytopes [PDF]

, 2012
Every regular polytope has the remarkable property that it inherits all symmetries of each of its facets. This property distinguishes a natural class of polytopes which are called hereditary.

Machine learning‐driven advances in carbon‐based quantum dots: Opportunities accompanied by challenges

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.
Machine learning provides a unifying framework to connect structure, fluorescence properties, and applications of carbon‐based quantum dots. This review highlights how data‐driven strategies enable fluorescence regulation, reveal underlying mechanisms, and accelerate the rational design of functional carbon dots.

Hole Polaronic Confinement in (111) Yttria‐Stabilised Zirconia

Small, EarlyView.
Ultrathin epitaxial YSZ(111) films unexpectedly develop p‐type mixed conduction and amplified electromechanical coupling under oxidizing conditions. Combined transport measurements and first‐principles modeling reveal that nanoscale confinement and ordered dopant–vacancy complexes stabilize localized O 2p hole polarons at the surface. A canonical ionic

Gauss images of hyperbolic cusps with convex polyhedral boundary [PDF]

, 2009
We prove that a 3--dimensional hyperbolic cusp with convex polyhedral boundary is uniquely determined by its Gauss image. Furthermore, any spherical metric on the torus with cone singularities of negative curvature and all closed contractible geodesics ...

Rb4CuSb2X12 (X = Cl, Br) as Novel Vacancy‐Ordered Quadruple Perovskites

Zeitschrift für anorganische und allgemeine Chemie, EarlyView.
The vacancy‐ordered quadruple perovskites Rb4CuSb2X12 (X = Cl, Br) were crystallized from hydrohalic acid. Their crystal structures can be interpreted as new distortion variants of the perovskite structure with ordered vacancies. The electronic structure of Rb4CuSb2Br12 shows that the Br and Sb states form the valence band and the upper conduction band.

Bridging the Late Antique Gap in Northwest Arabia: New Archaeological Evidence on the Occupation of Wādī al‐Qurā (al‐ʿUlā [AlUla], Saudi Arabia) Between the Third and Seventh Centuries CE

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 2019, the Dadan Archaeological Project (CNRS/RCU/AFALULA) identified a Late Antique village 1 km south of ancient Dadan in the al‐ʿUlā valley (northwest Saudi Arabia). Three excavation seasons at this site (2021–2023) have uncovered a massive building constructed in the late third or early fourth cent.

A Survey of Methods for Constructing 3D Urban Models From Point Clouds

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
The survey outlines a general process for constructing 3D models from point clouds and categorizes the methods based on their use of templates, basic surface primitives, hybrid approaches, or linear primitives. Additionally, the survey reviews the datasets and benchmarks that are essential for testing and training the developed methods.

The Reactive Extrusion Cationization of Starches as a Novel Physicochemical Surface Modification Method

Biopolymers, Volume 117, Issue 3, May 2026.
Native starches from different botanical sources were cationized by reactive extrusion using 3% glycidyltrimethylammonium chloride (GTAC). The process, performed under controlled thermal zones, promoted the incorporation of quaternary ammonium groups onto the starch backbone.
