Classification of target tissues of Eisenia fetida using sequential multimodal chemical analysis and machine learning.
Histochemistry and cell biology
Nov 8, 2021
Acquiring comprehensive knowledge about the uptake of pollutants, impact on tissue integrity and the effects at the molecular level in organisms is of increasing interest due to the environmental exposure to numerous contaminants. The analysis of tis...
ESIDE: A computationally intelligent method to identify earthworm species (E. fetida) from digital images: Application in taxonomy.
PloS one
Sep 16, 2021
Earthworms (Crassiclitellata) being ecosystem engineers significantly affect the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the soil by recycling organic material, increasing nutrient availability, and improving soil structure. The efficiency o...
An Analysis of Peristaltic Locomotion for Maximizing Velocity or Minimizing Cost of Transport of Earthworm-Like Robots.
Soft robotics
Aug 25, 2020
Earthworm-like peristaltic locomotion has been implemented in >50 robots, with many potential applications in otherwise inaccessible terrain. Design guidelines for peristaltic locomotion have come from observations of biology, but robots have empiric...
In-plane gait planning for earthworm-like metameric robots using genetic algorithm.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Jul 29, 2020
Locomotion of earthworm-like metameric robots results from shape changes of deformable segments. Morphologically, the segments could stretch, contract or bend by changing their states. Periodic shape changes are recognized as gaits of the robots. Rob...
Continuous models for peristaltic locomotion with application to worms and soft robots.
Biomechanics and modeling in mechanobiology
Jul 10, 2020
A continuous model for the peristaltic locomotion of compressible and incompressible rod-like bodies is presented. Using Green and Naghdi's theory of a directed rod, incompressibility is enforced as an internal constraint. A discussion on muscle actu...
An earthworm-inspired soft robot with perceptive artificial skin.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Aug 16, 2019
The bodies of earthworms are composed of repeating deformable structural units, called metameres, that generate the peristaltic body motions required for limbless underground burrowing and above-ground crawling. Metameres are actuated by circular and...
An earthworm-inspired friction-controlled soft robot capable of bidirectional locomotion.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Feb 15, 2019
We present the design, fabrication, modeling and feedback control of an earthworm-inspired soft robot capable of bidirectional locomotion on both horizontal and inclined flat platforms. In this approach, the locomotion patterns are controlled by acti...
Body stiffness in orthogonal directions oppositely affects worm-like robot turning and straight-line locomotion.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Jan 19, 2018
Earthworms locomote using traveling waves of segment contraction and expansion, which when symmetric result in straight-line locomotion and when biased result in turning. The mechanics of the soft body permit a large range of possible body shapes whi...
Origami-based earthworm-like locomotion robots.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Oct 16, 2017
Inspired by the morphology characteristics of the earthworms and the excellent deformability of origami structures, this research creates a novel earthworm-like locomotion robot through exploiting the origami techniques. In this innovation, appropria...
Energetic analysis and experiments of earthworm-like locomotion with compliant surfaces.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Feb 4, 2016
The energy consumption of worm robots is composed of three parts: heat losses in the motors, internal friction losses of the worm device and mechanical energy locomotion requirements which we refer to as the cost of transport (COT). The COT, which is...
