Unmanned Aerial Systems for Corrosion Detection: Multi‐Sensor Technologies, Challenges, and Opportunities for Next‐Generation Inspection

Quality and Reliability Engineering International, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 3565-3583, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Corrosion remains a critical threat to the integrity and service life of infrastructure in industries such as oil, gas, construction, renewable energy, and transportation. Traditional inspection methods, being labor‐intensive, hazardous, and often subjective, fall short in addressing modern inspection demands.

Envisioning the work of reconfiguring: A modeling perspective for designing adaptive human‐agent systems

AI Magazine, Volume 47, Issue 3, Fall 2026.
Abstract This paper discusses the perspective that managing the configuration of a network of human and software agents is a form of distributed work that should be explicitly considered when designing human‐agent systems. We describe a configuration of human and software agents as the organization of their roles and relationships that shape and ...

Approximate Reachability for Feedback Linearizable Systems

Optimal Control Applications and Methods, Volume 47, Issue 5, Page 1062-1082, September/October 2026.
The backwards reachable set for a dynamical system is the set of states for which there exists a constraint admissible trajectory that reaches a given terminal set. Conventional grid‐based approaches for computing these sets are intractable for many applications.

Integrated LEO Constellation and In‐Cabin Distribution System for Continuous Aircraft 5G Connectivity

International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, Volume 44, Issue 5, Page 594-606, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT The integration of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations with commercial aircraft communication systems presents critical challenges in maintaining continuous connectivity during dynamic flight conditions. Current geostationary satellite systems suffer from high round‐trip latency ( > 500 ms) and inadequate coverage at high latitudes,

Bionic Tactile Skins for Robotics: Fundamentals, Advances, and Future Prospects

SmartSys, Volume 2, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Robotic bionic tactile skins (RBTSs), as crucial components of next‐generation robotic systems, have attracted significant attention in recent years. By enabling robots to achieve human‐like tactile perception and interact effectively with their surroundings, RBTSs play an essential role in enhancing robotic intelligence.
