Soft Robotic Excretory Care Simulator for Nursing Education: Functional and Perceptual Biomimetics Approach

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in

Laser-plasma induced shock waves in micro shock tubes

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2017
Shock wave generation with help of lasers or shock tubes, for example, is a common subject at macroscopic scale. On the other hand, the current tendency towards smaller scales becomes more and more important.

Entropy Balance and Dispersive Oscillations in Lattice Boltzmann Models

open access: yes, 2009
We conduct an investigation into the dispersive post-shock oscillations in the entropic lattice-Boltzmann method (ELBM). To this end we use a root finding algorithm to implement the ELBM which displays fast cubic convergence and guaranties the proper ...

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.

CFD Modelling of Flow Characteristics in Micro Shock Tubes

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2017
The use of micro shock tubes has become common in many instruments requiring a high velocity and temperature flow field, for example in micro-propulsion systems and drug delivery devices for medical systems.

Study on the Variation in Shock Characteristics in a TNT-Based Shock Tube Under Different Experimental Conditions

open access: yesApplied Sciences
In open-air explosion experiments, the measured blast pressure characteristics often show high Coefficients of Variation (COV), causing reproducibility issues. Shock tubes can address this problem.
