Intelligent Continuum Micromachines in Complex Confined Spaces
SmartBot, EarlyView.The cover depicts a conceptual design for an intelligent continuum micromachine entering a target capsule used in fusion‐energy research through its slender gas‐fill tube. By combining route‐adaptive deformation, embedded sensing, and a functional end effector, the robot could inspect hidden defects, assess local conditions, and support localized ...

The Political Ecology of the ‘New’ Feminism in Late‐1990s Britain
Gender &History, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The 1990s were a vexed time for feminists in Britain. Cultural commentators declared that feminism's key battles had been won, and that given women's ascendency across various political and cultural barometers of success, the country was entering a newly ‘postfeminist’ era.
