This paper introduces approximate time-domain solutions to the otherwise non-integrable double-stance dynamics of the 'bipedal' spring-loaded inverted pendulum (B-SLIP) in the presence of non-negligible damping. We first introduce an auxiliary system...

The study of radiation entrance and exit dynamics and energy consumption in a system is important for understanding the environmental processes that rule the biosphere-atmosphere interactions of all ecosystems. This study provides an analysis of the ...
Hygromorph artificial muscles are attractive as self-powered actuators driven by moisture from the ambient environment. Previously reported hygromorph muscles have been largely limited to bending or torsional motions or as tensile actuators with low ...

An innovative processing strategy for fabricating soft structures that possess electric- and humidity-driven active/passive actuation capabilities along with touch- and humidity-sensing properties is reported. The intrinsically multifunctional materi...
Biological particulate matter (BioPM) in the urban environment can affect human health and climate. Pollen, a key BioPM component, produces smaller particles when fragmented, significantly impacting public health. However, detecting pollen fragmentat...
This study investigates plant stress assessment by integrating advanced sensor technologies and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Multi-sensor data-including electrical impedance spectroscopy, temperature, and humidity-were used to capture plant physiolo...
BACKGROUND: Exposure to air pollution and meteorological conditions, such as humidity, has been linked to adverse respiratory health outcomes in children. This study aims to develop predictive models for pediatric hospitalizations based on both envir...
