Coracoacromial ligament integrity influences scapular spine strain after reverse shoulder arthroplasty

JSES International
Background: The purpose of this biomechanical study was to examine the effect of coracoacromial (CA) ligament state (intact vs. released) and arm position on acromial and scapular spine strain following reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA). Methods:

Compliant Pneumatic Feet with Real‐Time Stiffness Adaptation for Humanoid Locomotion

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A compliant pneumatic foot with real‐time variable stiffness enables humanoid robots to adapt to changing terrains. Using onboard vision and pressure control, the foot modulates stiffness within each gait cycle, reducing impact forces and improving balance. The design, cast in soft silicone with embedded air chambers and Kevlar wrapping, offers durable,

A Soft Robotic Device for Targeted Massage Therapy of Residual Limbs

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Residual limb edema after amputation can hinder recovery and delay prosthetic fitting. This study presents a soft‐robotic wearable device that delivers sequential compression through pneumatic McKibben actuators. By replicating the principles of manual lymphatic drainage, the device generates controlled mechanotherapeutic pressure patterns, providing a
