Gliding birds lack a vertical tail, yet they fly stably rudderless in turbulence without needing discrete flaps to steer. In contrast, nearly all airplanes need vertical tails to damp Dutch roll oscillations and to control yaw. The few exceptions tha...
Over the last two decades, robotics engineering has witnessed rapid growth in the exploration and development of soft robots. Soft robots are made of deformable materials with mechanical properties or other features that resemble biological structure...
This paper presents the development and control of a dynamic model for a plant-inspired growing robot, termed the 'vine-robot', using the Euler-Lagrangian method. The unique growth mechanism of the vine-robot enables it to navigate complex environmen...
Embedded, flexible, multi-sensor sensing networks have shown the potential to provide soft robots with reliable feedback while navigating unstructured environments. Time delay associated with extracting information from these sensing networks and the...
This article presents a novel bioinspired technology for the cooperation and coordination of heterogeneous robot swarms in uncontrolled environments, utilizing an artificial pheromone composed of magnetized ferrofluids. Communication between differen...

PURPOSE: Percutaneous puncture is a common interventional procedure, and its effectiveness is influenced by the insertion force of the needle. To optimize outcomes, we focus on reducing the peak force of the needle in the skin, aiming to apply this m...
Locomotion on soft yielding grounds is more complicated and energetically demanding than on hard ground. Wet soft ground (such as mud or snow) is a particularly difficult substance because it dissipates energy when stepping and resists extrusion of t...
Early diagnosis and screening of tumor markers are essential for effective cancer treatment and improve the treatment efficiency and prognosis of tumor recurrence and metastasis. In this study, a split-ring resonator (SRR) circuit based on an interdi...
