is a significant pathogen affecting shrimp and crab farming, particularly strains carrying genes associated with acute hepatopancreatic necrosis syndrome. However, the immune response of to infection remains unclear. To address this knowledge gap,...
The artificial structures can influence wetland topology and sediment properties, thereby shaping plant distribution and composition. Macrobenthos composition was correlated with plant cover. Previous studies on the impact of artificial structures on...
This article describes development of a crab biorobot that is capable of traversing diverse environments including both land and water. We have transformed a living rainbow crab into a walking biorobot by attaching wireless controller. An anatomical ...
Natural terrain is uneven so it may be beneficial to grasp onto the depressions or 'valleys' between obstacles when walking over such a surface. To examine how leg geometry influences walking across obstacles with valleys, we (1) modeled the performa...
Crabs are adept at traversing natural terrains that are challenging for mobile robots. Curved dactyls are a characteristic feature that engage terrain in order to resist wave forces in surf zones. Inward gripping motions at the onset of the stance co...
Metaheuristic algorithms are a method of searching for a suboptimal solution and are implemented by a large number of agents, such as a swarm of animals. In this method, it is very important to adjust the relationships and/or interplay between indivi...
To study the effects of dietary methionine on growth performance, immunity, antioxidant capacity, protein metabolism, inflammatory response and apoptosis factors in Chinese mitten crabs (Eriocheir sinensis). Five diets with different methionine level...
In this paper, we study the two-dimensional direction of arrival (2D-DOA) estimation problem in a switching uniform circular array (SUCA), which means performing 2D-DOA estimation with a reduction in the number of radio frequency (RF) chains. We prop...
Articulated legs enable the selection of robot gaits, including walking in different directions such as forward or sideways. For longer distances, the best gaits might maximize velocity or minimize the cost of transport (COT). While animals often hav...
Sandy beaches are areas that challenge robots of all sizes, especially smaller scale robots. Sand can hinder locomotion and waves apply hydrodynamic forces which can displace, reorient, or even invert the robot. Crab-like legs and gaits are well suit...
