A Female‐Locust‐Inspired Hybrid Soft‐Stiff Robotic Digger: Mimetics and Implications for Digging Efficiency

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Female desert locusts dig underground to lay their eggs. They displace soil, rather than removing it, to create a tunnel. We analyze burrowing dynamics and 3D kinematics and design a locust‐inspired hybrid soft–stiff robot that reproduces this mechanism. The results show the natural strategy minimizes energy, whereas alternative patterns raise costs up

Current‐Limiting Control Strategies in Variable Capacitance Electrostatic Energy Harvesters

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work introduces control strategies for electrostatic energy harvesters that balance energy yield with current limitations. Two approaches are explored: traditional peak‐triggered controls, and newly developed quadrature controls, which use smooth voltage profiles.

Modeling and Characterization of a Self‐Sensing Soft Hydraulic Muscle

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article presents the self‐sensing soft hydraulic muscle (SSHM), a novel soft actuator capable of simultaneously sensing force and length without external sensors. A comprehensive model accurately predicts SSHM behavior, validated experimentally with minimal errors. Using propylene glycol enhances durability and reduces hysteresis.
