Inflatable Kirigami Crawlers

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Inflatable kirigami crawlers are fabricated from heat‐sealable textiles and achieve motion through cyclic pneumatic actuation. Strategically placed kirigami cuts guide asymmetric deformation, doubling contraction compared to traditional pouches and forming scale‐like surfaces.

Soft Robotic Snake with Tunable Undulatory Gait for Efficient Underwater Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study designs an underwater soft snake robot using 3D‐printed soft actuators, controlled by specific signals to generate sinusoidal undulation. Results show a positive correlation between speed and swing amplitude, with optimal performance at 2/3π phase offset, PLA tail, 1.2 voltage growth rate, and 6s undulation period achieving a maximum speed ...

Wisdom of Snake [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Urology, 2013
2013 is the year of the snake in the lunar calendar. The snake symbolizes many things in both Eastern and Western mythologies. Especially in Eastern Asia, snakes are respected as a symbol of harvest and fertility, whereas in Greek mythology, snakes have symbolic significance in science. Just as a snake sheds its old skin, the Korean Journal of Urology (

The Amount of Food Ingested and Its Impact on the Level of Uric Acid in the Blood Plasma of Snakes

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
In mammals, lipemic blood from sampling too soon after an animal feeds can have substantial effects on biochemical values. Plasma biochemical values in reptiles may be affected by species, age, season, and nutritional state.

Bifunctional WO3 Photoelectrodes Decorated by Inkjet Printing for Solar Supercapacitors

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
WO3 bifunctional photoelectrodes, produced by screen printing and then superficially decorated by inkjet printing, are successfully applied to prepare solar supercapacitors. Under illumination, the areal capacitance is enhanced thanks to the positive contribution of the photogenerated charges and the higher exposed area; its value becomes even more ...
