Sound‐Based Assembly of Magnetically Actuated Soft Robots Toward Enhanced Release of Extracellular Vesicles

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
Magnetic soft robots offer promise in biomedicine due to their wireless actuation and rapid response, but current fabrication methods are complex and have limited cellular compatibility. A new, contactless bioassembly strategy using hydrodynamic instabilities is introduced, enabling customizable, centimeter‐scale robots.

A Novel DOA Estimation Method for a Far-Field Narrow-Band Point Source via the Conventional Beamformer

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Far-field narrow-band Direction-of-Arrival (DOA) estimation is a practical challenge in passive and active sonar applications. While the Conventional Beamformer (CBF) is a robust Maximum Likelihood Estimator (MLE), its precision is inherently constrained

Design and Characterization of a Dual‐Mode Soft Robotic Flapping Propeller With Pneumatic Stiffness Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A novel soft robotic propeller overcomes traditional efficiency‐flexibility tradeoffs via a hybrid pneumatic‐cable actuation strategy. This architecture enables active stiffness modulation with dual‐mode locomotion: tunable biomimetic swimming and earthworm‐inspired wriggling for confined spaces.

A Bioinspired Underwater Soft Robot for Active Intravesical Liquid Delivery and Mixing

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A bioinspired underwater soft robot is reported that integrates an elastic strain energy‐driven soft robotic pump with a programmable flexible magnetic valve, enabling remotely controlled, programmable, and sustained liquid release and mixing. This functionality is enabled by the synergistic integration of elastic strain energy‐driven pumping and ...

1,2‐propanediol reformulation improves tribromoethanol safety and reveals pontine GABRA1 enrichment as a candidate mechanistic correlate of anesthesia

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study develops a reformulated tribromoethanol (TBE) anesthetic using 1,2‐propanediol as a solvent to overcome solvent‐related toxicity. The novel formulation demonstrates, cardiovascular stability, and survival in prolonged protocols. It provides potent, dose‐dependent anesthesia without strain or sex differences.

3D reconstruction of a shallow archaeological site from high-resolution acoustic imagery: The Grace Dieu [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Acoustic imaging and characterisation of buried objects (and in particular archaeological materials) in shallow-water (<5 m) is often unsuccessful owing to problems related to vessel-induced bubble turbulence and the restricted acoustic geometry of ...
