A REVIEW OF JAMMING ACTUATION IN SOFT ROBOTICS

A Review of Jamming Actuation in Soft Robotics

Jamming is a popular and versatile soft robotic mechanism, enabling new systems to be developed that can altitude sunscreen achieve high stiffness variation with minimal volume variation.Numerous applications have been reported, including deep-sea sampling, industrial gripping, and use as paws for legged locomotion.This review explores the state-of

Life history strategy dictates thermal preferences across the diel cycle and in response to starvation in variable field crickets, Gryllus lineaticeps

houston texans shorts Insects behaviorally thermoregulate across the diel cycle, and their preferred microhabitats change based on current resources available and the thermal performance optima of traits.Specific combinations of traits being prioritized are set by life history strategies, making life history an important intrinsic determinant of th

Legacy Vegetation and Drainage Features Influence Sediment Dynamics and Tidal Wetland Recovery After Managed Dyke Realignment

Managed dyke realignment (MR) is a nature-based technique that shifts dyke systems farther inland, allowing for restoration of tidal flow and tidal wetland vegetation.While restoration of tidal flow can result in rapid sediment accretion and vegetation recovery, dykelands on the east coast of Canada are often agricultural, with legacy vegetation an

Capitalising on the Floristic Survey as a Non-Destructive Line of Evidence for Mineral Potential Modelling: A Case Study of Bauxite in South-Western Australia

While geobotanists have long used plant occurrence to locate subsurface resources, none have utilised floristic surveys as evidence in models of mineral potential.Here, we combine plant species distributions with terrain metrics to produce predictive models showing the probability of bauxite presence.We identified nineteen taxa with statistically s
