Emulating duration and curvature of coral snake anti-predator thrashing behaviors using a soft-robotic platform [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 This paper presents a soft-robotic platform for exploring the ecological relevance of non-locomotory movements via animal-robot interactions. Coral snakes (genus Micrurus) and their mimics use vigorous, non-locomotory, and arrhythmic thrashing to deter predation.

Deep Learning Methods in Soft Robotics: Architectures and Applications
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Soft robotics has seen intense research over the past two decades and offers a promising approach for future robotic applications. However, standard industrial methods may be challenging to apply to soft robots. Recent advances in deep learning provide powerful tools to analyze and design complex soft machines that can operate in unstructured ...

Variational approximations to homoclinic snaking [PDF]
, 2010 We investigate the snaking of localised patterns, seen in numerous physical applications, using a variational approximation. This method naturally introduces the exponentially small terms responsible for the snaking structure, that are not accessible via standard multiple-scales asymptotic techniques.

A mid-Cretaceous embryonic-to-neonate snake in amber from Myanmar
Science Advances, 2018 The first known fossil baby snake (Late Cretaceous amber, Myanmar) shows that some ancient snakes lived in marginal marine forests. We present the first known fossilized snake embryo/neonate preserved in early Late Cretaceous (Early Cenomanian) amber ...
