Electrostatic Actuation Induces Competing Adhesion and Vibration Regimes at Fingertip Contact

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Electric fields modulate fingertip–surface contact to create artificial touch sensations. The mechanisms underlying electrostatic friction, however, remain unclear. Direct imaging and friction measurements under oscillating electric fields showed that adhesion dominates at high frequencies, while vibration contributes substantially at the lower ...

Design Optimization of Soft Fabric Pneumatic Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a systematic optimization framework for elongating and bending fabric‐based soft pneumatic actuators. After a preliminary design‐space reduction, the framework minimizes energy consumption under mechanical performance constraints by integrating validated finite element modeling with statistical surrogate models. Optimal designs were

Negotiating contested spaces and places: Narratives of social suffering and resistance in racialized Cape Town communities

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study employs a schizocartographic approach to explore community narratives of space, memory, and violence in Kraaifontein, Cape Town. Through participants' accounts, ordinary places—gardens, shops, blocks, sports grounds, and streets—emerge as ambivalent geographies where trauma, resilience, and belonging intersect.

Freedom dreaming of migrant justice: Critical reflections on counterspaces and institutional violence in the university

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract US universities are built on stolen land and sustained through hierarchies of power that produce what migrant justice scholars name as b/order regimes. As institutions that claim to be sites of learning and inclusion, universities are fraught with contradictions as simultaneously sites of dispossession, exclusion, and control.
