Philosophical Urbanism and the Predilections of Urban Design [PDF]
, 2012 The scholarly thrust of urban planning is its use of, as well as its contribution to, social science. As a discipline bordering with civil engineering, furthermore, urban planning has always carried also an important cross-disciplinary message beyond social science. Yet the association of urban planning with humanistic disciplines and the fine arts has

Zoborg: On‐Demand Climbing Control for Cyborg Beetles
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A novel on‐demand climbing protocol enables Zoborg (a cyborg beetle from the living Zophobas morio) to seamlessly transition from horizontal floors to vertical walls. Multiple unrestrained mechanosensors allow wall sensing while electrical stimulation of the elytron initiates climbing. Leveraging the agile locomotion and exceptional adaptability of the
