Analysis of Creeping Locomotion of a Snake-like Robot on a Slope

open access: yes, 2006
The diverse locomotion modes and physiology of biological snakes make them supremely adapted for their environment. To model the noteworthy features of these snakes we have developed a snake-like robot that has no forward direction driving force.

Textile and colour defect detection using deep learning methods

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advances in deep learning (DL) have significantly enhanced the detection of textile and colour defects. This review focuses specifically on the application of DL‐based methods for defect detection in textile and coloration processes, with an emphasis on object detection and related computer vision (CV) tasks.

Serpentine locomotion of a snake-like robot controlled by musical theory

open access: yes, 2005
Based on the structure of both biological snakes and snake-like robots and their rhythmic locomotion, the musical theory is adopted as a control method to study on a snake-like robot.

Managed decline: Muddling through with the Sterling (dis)Agreements, 1968–74

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract How do policymakers manage the decline of an international currency? This paper revisits the view that the ‘Sterling Agreements’ of 1968–74 – bilateral contracts between the UK and sterling‐holding governments – marked a successful paradigm shift towards sterling's managed ‘retirement’.

Kinetostatics of a Snake Robot with Redundant Degrees of Freedom

open access: yesMachines
This paper proposes a kinetostatic approach for analyzing the joint torques of a redundant snake robot. The method is suitable for weightless space environments.

Serpentine locomotion of a snake-like robot controlled by cyclic inhibitory CPG model

open access: yes, 2005
Based on the structure of both biological snakes and snake-like robots and their rhythm locomotion, the theory of the cyclic inhibitory CPG is adopted as a control method to construct a neuron network model of the snake-like robot.

Degradomics for large‐scale mechanistic insights on proteases and proteolysis in human health

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Proteolysis has an important role in human disease but remains relatively unexplored. Degradomics, the uncovering of proteolysis in tissues, cells, and proteins, uses mass spectrometry‐based terminomics to identify protein termini occurring therein (forward degradomics) and to define the actions of proteases (reverse degradomics).

Contrasting Models of Deification: The Technological Anthropology of the AI Age and the Theological Anthropology of Early Christianity

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic Theology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ancient ideas about human transformation and divinization have resurfaced in our cultural moment. Artificial intelligence and biotechnology are raising afresh questions about what it means to be human and divine. The Oxford Handbook of Deification has arrived on the scene as its subject matter has splashed out of theological discourse into the

Kinematic analysis of snake-like robot using sliding joints

open access: yes, 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
