A Multimode Soft Robot Based on a Single Braided Tube

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study introduces a novel soft multimode robot based on a single braided tube directly formed and actuated by SMA wires with distinct initial configurations. By combining contraction, elongation, and bending deformations, the robot achieves straight crawling, turning, inchworm crawling, and rolling without additional actuators.

Modeling Vertical Gravity Gradients Using Geodetic and Geological Data

open access: yes
The vertical gravity gradient, defined as the change in gravity with height, is a crucial physical quantity that plays an essential role in various geodetic and geophysical modelling and data processing applications. It is also significant in the processing of gravity measurements, as gravity acceleration measured by an instrument must be reduced from ...

Contact Force Estimation of Continuum Robots without Embedded Sensors: A Review

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This review surveys methods for estimating contact forces in continuum robots without embedded sensors. It explains why contact force matters, classifies force patterns, and groups existing methods into three approaches based on actuation, deformation, and environment information.
