Investigation of efficient creeping locomotion for snake-like robots with compliant passive joints

open access: yesBiomimetic Intelligence and Robotics
Snake-like robots leverage their slender bodies to navigate confined spaces by coordinating the multiple actuated joints, which enable effective movement through constrained pathways.

Head-navigated locomotion of a snake-like robot for its autonomous obstacle avoidance

open access: yes, 2010
Inspired from the natural motion of snakes, a head-navigated locomotion is proposed for snake-like robots in this paper. Different from the traditional serpentine motion, the head of the snake-like robot would always maintain its direction along the ...

Reconstructing the major skull myology of the giant stem‐amphibian Mastodonsaurus: A case study for early tetrapods

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We reconstruct the major cranial musculature of the giant stem amphibian Mastodonsaurus giganteus, revealing a differentiated jaw‐adductor system, a probable sesamoid pulley, and previously unrecognised muscles. This EPB‐based case study establishes an anatomical framework for modelling feeding in early tetrapods and supports interpretations of ...

Between Play and Reason: Integrating Sensible Foolishness Into Strategy‐Making Workshops

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Sensible foolishness through play can offer a valuable escape from prevailing dogmas and rational models of intelligence, affording actors freedom to explore, imagine, and create without constraint. Yet the value of sensible foolishness, and the vital interplay between play and reason, remains underexplored in strategy scholarship.

Development of Quadrupedal Robot Mimicking the Motion of Snake

open access: yes, 2019
Snake robots are slower than wheeled robots or legged robots, while they have an excellent terrainability in a disastrous area. Considering their advantages and disadvantages, a legged robot whose legs are snake robots, ‘Quadnake’ was proposed in this ...

Vocabulary Opens the Door; Creativity Guides the Search: Complementary Contributions to Second Language Semantic Fluency Across Domains

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract Semantic fluency, the ability to retrieve words within a category, relies on lexical knowledge, semantic memory and executive control mechanisms. A richer, interconnected semantic memory and optimal executive control, as seen in creative individuals, enhance fluency through broad associative searches and quicker access to remote concepts ...

COMPOSER: Scalable and Robust Modular Policies for Snake Robots

open access: yes, 2023
Snake robots have showcased remarkable compliance and adaptability in their interaction with environments, mirroring the traits of their natural counterparts. While their hyper-redundant and high-dimensional characteristics add to this adaptability, they

The Belief–Desire Appraisal Theory of Emotion

open access: yesPacific Philosophical Quarterly, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT I introduce the Belief–Desire Appraisal Theory of Emotion (BDA). BDA makes three main claims: (a) Emotions are psychological episodes whose paradigmatic instances are constituted by coordinated changes in appraisals, action tendencies, bodily responses, and subjective feelings; (b) appraisals—which are rapid, low‐level evaluations of ...

Path planning for winding motion of orthogonal snake-like robots based on improved A* algorithm

open access: yesJixie chuandong
ObjectiveA multi-dimensional improvement strategy was proposed to address the defects of the traditional A* algorithm in path planning of orthogonal snake-like robots, including large search range, excessive redundant corners and insufficient path ...
