From Folding Mechanics to Robotic Function: A Unified Modeling Framework for Compliant Origami
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A geometry‐consistent DDG framework captures compliant origami deformation from rigid‐like folding to soft panel bending. By tuning crease and panel stiffness, bistable snap‐through responses transform into smooth monostable deformation, enabling programmable stability and robot‐scale locomotion.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Geometric constraint reconfiguration enables a rigid–foldable kirigami‐inspired mechanism to switch between twisting, directional translation, and self‐locking states. By encoding multifunctionality directly into its architecture, the mechanism achieves multimodal motion and passive locking without reassembly, providing a compact platform for adaptive ...

Variation and Modelling of Starting Torque in Industrial Agitators
This study aims to find a general solution for describing the starting torque of an industrial agitator. Different setups of agitators are tested, and the torque is measured during start-up. Two propellers are tested together with two different induction motors in air, water and pulp.

Stochastic Entanglement of Deterministic Origami Tentacles For Robust Robotic Grasping
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study introduces an origami tentacle gripper to robustly grasp objects‐in air, underwater, and even in orbital space‐by exploiting a synergy between local, deterministic deformation programming and global, stochastic entanglements. A single origami tentacle can be designed to coil with a simple tendon pull.
