Environment-adaptable locomotion of a snake-like robot

, 2004
Biological snakes' diverse locomotion modes and physiology make them supremely adapted for the ground. This paper discusses the Biological snakes' locomotion mode on the diverse ground, and describes the environment-adaptable locomotion of a ...

Through the Sands of Time: Evolutionary History and Systematics of the Awl‐Headed Snakes (Colubridae: Lytorhynchus) in the Saharo‐Sindian Region

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The psammophilous colubrid genus Lytorhynchus is widely distributed in the deserts of the Saharo‐Sindian region and adjacent areas. The taxonomy of the genus and the number of recognised species have remained unstable since the last taxonomic revision in 1970, with differing views on the taxonomic status of L. gaddi and L. kennedyi.

Control of a 3-dimensional snake-like robot

, 2003
Biological snakes' diverse locomotion modes and physiology make them supremely adapted for environment. The special structure of snakes and their unique movement offer them peculiar ability of climbing and moving even in some ill-conditioned ...

Erythrocyte ‘Feierzeit’ reaction: Novel filamentous and vesicular response to n‐butyl acetate

Journal of Microscopy, Volume 304, Issue 3, Page 196-208, December 2026.
Abstract Human erythrocytes (red blood cells; RBCs) undergo spontaneous disassembly after several hours of exposure to n‐butyl acetate (nBA). Images of the morphological changes were captured in time‐lapse sequences using differential interference contrast (DIC) light microscopy.

Dispelling Myths and Misunderstandings About Defining and Remediating Dyslexia

Dyslexia, Volume 32, Issue 4, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite a strong base of scientifically supported research on dyslexia, pervasive misunderstandings continue, particularly in the United States, where state legislation, instructional practices and parent advocacy intersect in ways that influence how dyslexia is identified and treated.

Flash Behaviour Does Not Help Rabbits Evade Human Predators

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.
European rabbits display their white‐tail when running, but are otherwise cryptic when resting or foraging‐ but the function of this conspicuous colouration is unclear. This white‐tail could act as ‘flash behaviour’‐ an obvious marker shown to predators but then suddenly hidden causing the predator to lose track of the prey. We tested this using edited

ClinX‐Net: Multimodal Visual–Language Feature Fusion for Chest X‐Ray Report Generation

International Journal of Imaging Systems and Technology, Volume 36, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Automated chest X‐ray report generation has the potential to improve reporting efficiency and reduce variability in radiological documentation. However, existing methods remain challenged by subtle abnormality description, long‐range textual consistency, and effective integration of clinical information with visual findings.

Kinematic analysis of snake-like robot using sliding joints

, 2010
The snake-like robot can be adaptive to many terrains with its abundant gaits. Serpentine locomotion is adopted widely, while concertina, side winding and rectilinear motions are considered little. To improve the adaptability in non-known environment, it

Cononsolvency‐Assisted Fabrication of Hydrogels and Microgels With Tunable Porosity, Diffusivity and Stiffness

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, Volume 47, Issue 21, 6 November 2026.
The cononsolvency of poly(dimethyl acrylamide‐co‐hydroxyethyl acrylamide) copolymers in water‐acetonitrile mixtures enables the synthesis of hydrogels with finely tuned porosity. Optimized for droplet‐based microfluidics, this approach facilitates the fabrication of porous microgels with tunable mechanical and diffusion properties, offering precise ...
