Continuous and Large‐Scale: ELEANOR, the Soft Architected Arm Inspired by the Elephant Trunk
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A large‐scale, architected continuum robot inspired by the macroscopic properties of the African elephant trunk achieves adaptive elephant‐like movements and whole‐body grasping. The results demonstrate that designing from the natural system’s macroscopic properties, rather than prescribing behaviors, provides a powerful strategy for developing ...

Seismic design of pre-cast reinforced concrete structures using additional viscous dampers
, 2006 Precast concrete structures characterised by not moment-resisting frames present a relatively large flexibility (w.r.t. lateral loads). This characteristic often hampers the satisfaction of the inter-storey drift limitations imposed by most of the codes,

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.Renewable guaiacols are rapidly oxidized by phenyliodine(III)diacetate to masked ortho‐quinones, giving a new class of monomers that undergo selective Michael‐type polyaddition with multithiols to from thiol‐guaiacol connectivity‐bearing polymers. The activation applies to discrete monomers and directly to lignin, enabling two‐component adhesives that ...

Radiative Hybrid Nanofluid Flow Over a Porous Riga Surface: A Fuzzy–ANN Modeling Approach
Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study proposes a fuzzy–ANN model to investigate the nonlinear thermal transport in a tangent hyperbolic (Tanh) hybrid nanofluid flow past a porous Riga surface, considering the effects of Rosseland diffusion, chemical reactions, and internal volumetric heating.

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This work discusses the thermal performance of magnetized hybrid nanofluid flow over a variable porous stretchable surface, emphasizing the underlying physical mechanisms governing heat and mass transfer. The Cattaneo–Christov flux model is used in place of Fourier's and Fick's laws to incorporate relaxation effects, ensuring a more realistic ...
