For musculoskeletal robots, this study proposes a purely mechanical reflex module. Specifically, this module implements a length feedback mechanism without electronics, enabling autonomous contraction of an artificial muscle once its length exceeds a threshold.

A Hierarchical, Model‐Based System for High‐Performance Humanoid Soccer
A hierarchical model‐based humanoid soccer system built on ARTEMIS integrates compliant mechanism design, in‐gait kicking, perception, localization, collision‐aware navigation, and behavior planning. Hardware–software codesign aligns mechanical design and control strategy with the requirements of autonomous soccer.

Are dairy cows replaced too early? Evidence from a structural model and cow‐level data
Abstract In past analyses of animal replacement decisions, studies have claimed that dairy farms often replace dairy cows too early to be maximizing profits. I estimate a structural model of asset replacement to determine the motives behind early replacement of dairy cows.

Severe Phenotype in an Indian Family With Progressive Pseudorheumatoid Arthropathy of Childhood
ABSTRACT Progressive pseudorheumatoid arthropathy of childhood (PPAC) is a rare autosomal recessive progressive condition that affects the cartilage of joints and bones. The symptoms of PPAC include stiffness of the joints, bony swelling of the toes and fingers, short stature, kyphosis, and muscle weakness.
