Origami‐Inspired Morphing Fuselage for Agile Fixed‐Wing Flight

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Conventional aircraft steer with rigid control surfaces. SoAR instead replaces the fuselage itself with a cable‐driven origami continuum body that bends in 3D and compresses on demand. Whole‐fuselage morphing steers fixed‐wing flight: achieving sharp, near‐zero‐radius turns and rapid braking without ailerons, rudder, or elevator, while the same ...

Computed tomography analysis of sagittal plane parameters in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis treated by video assisted thoracoscopic spinal fusion and instrumentation [PDF]

, 2010
One of the primary treatment goals of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) surgery is to achieve maximum coronal plane correction while maintaining coronal balance. However maintaining or restoring sagittal plane spinal curvature has become increasingly

Robotic Assistants in the Operating Room: A Systematic Review of Vision‐Based Systems for Nonoperative Tasks

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This review brings together 20 publications describing 11 robotic system families developed for instrument handling, sterile‐package opening, supply delivery, and operating room logistics. Perception is becoming more capable through deep learning and language‐guided control, but autonomy remains limited, evidence is largely laboratory‐based, and no ...

Paraspinal muscle injury, atrophy, and postoperative biomechanical burden after spinal fusion: a systematic review of computational biomechanical evidence

Egyptian Journal of Neurosurgery
Background Paraspinal muscles contribute to spinal support, segmental control, and postoperative load transfer after spinal fusion. Although paraspinal muscle injury, atrophy, and degeneration are increasingly recognized after spinal surgery, their ...
