Arthropod‐Inspired Miniature Modular Vibration Direct‐Drive Robot With Untethered Locomotion
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This work presents an arthropod‐inspired untethered miniature modular vibration direct‐drive robot. By utilizing standardized driving units and nested locking interfaces, on‐demand reconfiguration into quadruped, hexapod, octopod, and circular morphologies is achieved.

Architected Load Paths Enable Stiffening and Motion Programming in Soft Pneumatic Actuators
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A single MARS template introduces an architected reinforcement strategy for programmable soft pneumatic actuators through internal structural organization and selective beam removal. This monolithic architecture enables deformation reconfiguration from continuous bending to joint‐like articulation and torsional motion, allowing one compliant platform ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Human water demand constrains China's feasible afforestation potential more strongly than is commonly recognized, and future climate change further intensifies this limitation. Integrating land‐use optimization with water‐saving measures substantially expands feasible afforestation area and associated carbon sinks, revealing a practical pathway to ...

Habitat‐Specific Design Strategies for Untethered Soft Robots
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Habitat shapes the design of untethered soft robots. Across land, water, air, and living tissues, environmental constraints govern viable combinations of compliant structures, actuation mechanisms, and energy delivery. This review connects these constraints with robotic performance and identifies design principles for advancing adaptable, durable, and ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This paper presents the process of integrating electronics directly into the body sheet of CurveQuad, a small origami robot that can self‐fold, crawl, and steer with a single actuator. The authors design a flexible printed circuit board for the body sheet: the key challenge is to navigate how embedding electronics affects the mechanical properties and ...

Terrain classification by cluster analisys [PDF]
, 1988 The digital terrain modelling can be obtained by different methods belonging to two principal categories: deterministic methods (e.g. polinomial and spline functions interpolation, Fourier spectra) and stochastic methods (e.g. least squares collocation and fractals, i.e. the concept of selfsimilarity in probability). To reach good resul ts, both the fi
