Snake Robot Gait Decomposition and Gait Parameter Optimization [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 This paper proposes Gait Decomposition (G.D), a method of mathematically decomposing snake movements, and Gait Parameter Gradient (GPG), a method of optimizing decomposed gait parameters. G.D is a method that can express the snake gait mathematically and concisely from generating movement using the curve function to the motor control order when ...

Some algebraic invariants of the edge ideals of some $q$-fold bristled graphs [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 In this paper, we compute the exact values of regularity of the quotient rings of the edge ideals associated to multi triangular snake and multi triangular ouroboros snake graphs. Also we compute the exact values of depth, Stanley depth, regularity and projective dimension of the quotient rings of the edge ideals associated to $q$-fold bristled graphs ...

SAAP‐148 oligomerizes into a hexamer forming a hydrophobic inner core
ChemBioChem, Accepted Article.Human cathelicidin LL‐37 is a widely studied antimicrobial 37‐mer peptide with various ascribed functions, that serves as a template for designing novel peptides. Its derivative, the 24‐mer SAAP‐148, is highly effective in vitro in eradicating multidrug‐resistant bacteria, persistent cells, and biofilms, without inducing resistance.

Highly localised traditional knowledge of Mien medicinal plants in Chiang Rai, Thailand
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract The Mien ethnic people have migrated from China to Thailand over centuries and traditionally settled in remote areas of northern Thailand. They relied extensively on the local ecosystem for construction, food, fodder, and medicine. There are only a few studies of Mien traditional knowledge in China and Nan, Thailand.

Orphan crops of archaeology‐based crop history research
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Agrobiodiversity is central to sustainable farming worldwide. Cultivation, conservation and reintroduction of diverse plant species, including ‘forgotten’ and ‘underutilized’ crops, contribute to global agrobiodiversity, living ecosystems and sustainable food production.
