Stiffness‐Programmable Origami Robots With Tendon‐Driven Actuation via Multimaterial 3D Printing

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
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.

Self‐Sensing Artificial‐Muscle‐Empowered Humanlike Perception, Interaction, and Positioning

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
The proposed self‐sensorized artificial muscle (SSAM) can sense its length change as small as 0.01 mm via a seamlessly integrated multi‐segment induction coil. The SSAM provides accurate length information regardless of its loadings, driving pressure, or muscle design, adequate for robust data‐driven feedback control.

Arthroscopic Anatomic Repair of the Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex Foveal Tears With Suture Anchors With Preservation of the Ligament Remnant

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The deep layer of the triangular fibrocartilage complex (distal radioulnar ligament) serves as the primary stabilizer of the distal radioulnar joint. Historically, the deep triangular fibrocartilage complex was reattached to the ulnar fovea using bone tunnel or suture anchor techniques to achieve isometric repair.

More‐than‐gender? Moving beyond gendered expectations of divergent learners in early childhood education

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In this paper, we explore how neurodivergent ways of being in early education are often gendered. The intersectionalities of gender and neurodivergence often lead to fixed expectations that perpetuate binary interpretations, pathologisations, missed diagnoses and a lack of curated support.

Reconsidering the impact of saturated fat intake on metabolic health: A critical review of evidence and controversies

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Saturated fats (SFAs) play a complex role in health; therefore, their intake has been a topic of debate in the field of nutrition science. Therefore, this article emphasizes the importance of a balanced diet rather than SFA, considering genetic and metabolic differences, and advocates for the reconsideration of dietary guidelines based on the ...
