Research on the Servo Loading Systems of High Aspect Ratio Wing Test
It occurs that the loading point changes with the test piece in the aircraft structure test. In particularly, the large deformation of the wing will cause the issue that loading point is not perpendicular with the plan of the wing.

Liquid Crystalline Elastomers in Soft Robotics: Assessing Promise and Limitations
Liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) are programmable soft materials that undergo large, anisotropic deformation in response to external stimuli. Their molecular alignment encodes directional actuation in a monolithic structure, making them long‐standing candidates for soft robotic systems.

Parameterized Modeling of Blended Wing Body Aircraft Based on Multi-Scale CST Method [PDF]
In the parameterized modeling of blended wing body aircraft, the commonly used CST method has weak local deformation control capability, while the Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines(NURBS)method has the problem of too many global parameters.

Numerical Modeling of Photothermal Self‐Excited Composite Oscillators
We present a numerical framework for simulating photothermal self‐excited oscillations. The driving mechanism is elucidated by highlighting the roles of inertia and overshoot, as well as the phase lag between the thermal moment and the oscillation angle, which together construct the feedback loop between the system state and the environmental stimulus.

Considerations on similarity condition of wing deformation in flapping for model and mosquito wings
In our previous paper, to simulate mosquito flapping flight, experiments were performed using a wing model, which had n-times (n=10) enlarged shape of the mosquito wing and was made of deformable elastic material. The similarity conditions of the flows around the model and mosquito wings were satisfied by means of the Reynolds number and Strouhal ...

Intelligent Sky Guardians (InSkyGuard) is introduced as a four‐drone swarm that autonomously detects, tracks, and safely captures rogue drones using a coordinated net system. Computer vision and leader–follower control architecture enable synchronized enclosure, while integrated failsafes enhance system reliability. Validated through closed‐environment

Stiffness‐Programmable Origami Robots With Tendon‐Driven Actuation via Multimaterial 3D Printing
Motion diversity is achieved in a tendon‐driven origami robot through programmable stiffness rather than modified actuation. Multimaterial 3D printing embeds soft creases, modular inserts redirect identical tendon inputs into distinct behaviors, and variable‐stiffness inserts enable real‐time switching.
