Neuronal networks are complex systems of interconnected neurons responsible for transmitting and processing information throughout the nervous system. The building blocks of neuronal networks consist of individual neurons, specialized cells that rece...
Restructuring Particle Swarm Optimization (RPSO) algorithm has been developed as an intelligent approach based on the linear system theory of particle swarm optimization (PSO). It streamlines the flow of the PSO algorithm, specifically targeting cont...
Our knowledge of physics and chemistry is relatively well defined. Results from that knowledge are predictable as, largely, are those of their technical offspring such as electrical, chemical, mechanical and civil engineering. By contrast, biology is...
Robotic hands have the potential to perform complex tasks in unstructured environments owing to their bionic design, inspired by the most agile biological hand. However, the modeling, planning and control of dexterous hands remain unresolved, open ch...
Biological evidence demonstrates that fish can tune their body stiffness to improve thrust and efficiency during swimming locomotion. However, the stiffness-tuning strategies that maximize swimming speed or efficiency are still unclear. In the presen...
Currently, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an attractive additive for bone repair materials. PRP could enhance the osteoconductive and osteoinductive of bone cement, as well as modulate the degradation rate of calcium sulfate hemihydrate (CSH). The foc...
This paper presented a flexible and easily fabricated untethered underwater robot inspired by Aurelia, which is named “Au-robot”. The Au-robot is actuated by six radial fins made of shape memory alloy (SMA) artificial muscle modules, whic...
Osteochondral tissue (OC) is a complex and multiphasic system comprising cartilage and subchondral bone. The discrete OC architecture is layered with specific zones characterized by different compositions, morphology, collagen orientation, and chondr...
Selenium (Se) and its organic and inorganic compounds in dietary supplements have been found to possess excellent pharmacodynamics and biological responses. However, Se in bulk form generally exhibits low bioavailability and high toxicity. To address...
A kinematics analysis of a new hybrid mechanical leg suitable for bipedal robots was carried out and the gait of the robot walking on flat ground was planned. Firstly, the kinematics of the hybrid mechanical leg were analyzed and the applicable relev...
