Modeling and Characterization of a Self‐Sensing Soft Hydraulic Muscle
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This article presents the self‐sensing soft hydraulic muscle (SSHM), a novel soft actuator capable of simultaneously sensing force and length without external sensors. A comprehensive model accurately predicts SSHM behavior, validated experimentally with minimal errors. Using propylene glycol enhances durability and reduces hysteresis.

Slip‐Adaptive Neural Control of Gecko‐Inspired Adhesive Robots
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study introduces a neural adhesion controller to improve the stability of gecko‐inspired climbing robots. By integrating an echo state network and a multilayer perceptron, the system utilizes joint torque feedback to accurately estimate adhesion in both normal and shear directions and predict slips. This enables effective recovery from slip events,

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study presents a tendon‐driven compliant snake robot that uses globally applied vertical bending and axial twisting along its body to enable various gaits. Body deflection from compliance and weight passively generates the ground contact patterns required for locomotion.

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A modular eight‐legged robot exploits anisotropically oriented soft I‐beam backbones to transmit vibration from a single unbalanced‐mass actuator, producing frequency‐dependent multimodal gaits. A pseudo‐rigid‐body model enables high‐fidelity MuJoCo simulation, while Bayesian parameter identification and reinforcement learning yield robust control ...

Worm‐Inspired Soft Robots With Modular Outfit‐Changing for Intelligent Multienvironment Adaptation
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study proposes a worm‐inspired soft robot capable of locomotion across multiple environments through a modular “outfit‐changing” strategy. The robot integrates pneumatically actuated peristaltic segments with interchangeable external modules, enabling efficient motion on ground surfaces, within pipelines, through granular media, and underwater ...

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Species of Deuterocohnia (17 spp.) show extraordinary variation in elevation (0–3900 m a.s.l.) and growth forms, and many have narrow geographic distributions in the west‐central Andes and the Peru‐Chile coast. Previous research using few plastid and nuclear loci failed to produce well‐resolved or supported phylogenies.

The Insistence of Blackness and the Persistence of Antiblackness in Ireland
Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper positions Ireland as a critical site for examining the insistence of blackness and an antiblackness created and sustained through Irish ethnonationalist imaginaries and exclusionary processes. Drawing on connected sociologies and Irish Black Studies, this enquiry argues that antiblackness in Ireland operates as a generational force,

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Australia's Robodebt scheme, an automated debt recovery program introduced in 2016, was exposed by the Robodebt Royal Commission (RC) as a serious failure of public administration and source of significant harm for thousands of Australians. Through a critical discourse analysis (CDA) of Australian news media, this study explores whether the RC'

RichDEM: High-performance terrain analysis
, 2018 To answer geomorphological questions at unprecedented spatial and temporal scales, we need to (a) parse terabyte-scale datasets (DEMs), (b) perform millions of model realizations to pinpoint the parameters which govern landscape evolution, and (c) do so with statistical rigor, which may require thousands of additional realizations.

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective The objective of this study was to compare clinical features and prognosis of late‐onset neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (LO‐NMOSD, onset age ≥60 years) with adult‐onset NMOSD (AO‐NMOSD, onset age 18–59 years), and to provide insights for individualized management in elderly patients.
