A Multimode Soft Robot Based on a Single Braided Tube
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.

Multimodal Locomotion of Soft Robots
This review comprehensively surveys recent advances in multimodal locomotion within soft robotics. Typical locomotion modes are summarized and categorized. Furthermore, the underlying mechanisms enabling multimodal locomotion are discussed and classified into three primary categories: active control‐based, reconfiguration‐based, and environment ...

Modeling Vertical Gravity Gradients Using Geodetic and Geological Data
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
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.
