Characterization and Selection of Contractile Actuators for Soft Robotics Operating in the Quasistatic Regime

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
We developed methods to characterize soft contractile actuators using force–displacement measurements in the passive state and the total force in the active state and define the operational range of thermal, electrothermal, and pneumatic muscles. A graphical method enables the selection of an actuator based on the required mechanical force–displacement

From Marginal to Central: Marginal Zone‐like B Cells as Critical Targets in Cladribine‐Treated Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease where B cells play a central pathogenic role. Cladribine, an oral therapy, provides durable benefits by reshaping lymphocyte populations, yet its specific long‐term impact on distinct B‐cell subsets is not fully understood.

Neurovascular coupling in bone regeneration: Mechanisms, advanced biomaterials and challenges

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This figure illustrates various material strategies for neurovascularized bone regeneration, including electroactive scaffolds, ion‐loaded materials, drug delivery systems, surface modifications, cells/cell products, growth factors, and peptides. These approaches aim to synergistically promote the regeneration of neural, vascular, and bone tissues ...

Evidence for adaptive explanations of semelparity in animals

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Semelparity, the reproductive strategy of reproducing once, is widespread but uncommon in animals. Classes of models to explain the evolution of semelparity are based either on age structure and mortality schedules – demographic models in which high post‐reproductive mortality risk favours high reproductive effort and semelparity results from ...

Beyond Conventional Cost–Benefit Analysis to Integrated Sustainability Assessment in Additive Manufacturing

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Additive manufacturing (AM) adoption provides numerous benefits, including decentralised production, design flexibility, mass customisation, reduced material waste and lightweight designs. However, AM investment decisions are complex and challenging for manufacturers, and limited knowledge exists about the holistic assessment of relevant costs
