Soft Robotic Snake with Tunable Undulatory Gait for Efficient Underwater Locomotion
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 ...

EFFECT OF MATERNAL NARCOTIC ADDICTION ON SUCKING BEHAVIOR OF NEONATES [PDF]
Measures of newborn sucking behavior were used to study effects on the infant's state of CNS arousal induced by maternal addiction. The sucking performance of 38 infants diagnosed and treated for narcotic withdrawal by a new symptom scoring system (Neonatal Abstinence Score) was compared with that of 50 infants whose withdrawal was regulated by ...
