Then, we summarize the driving principles and structures of various common driving methods from the perspective of bionics, and discuss the latest developments in the field of soft robot actuation from the perspective of driving modalities and methodologies. We then discuss the application directions of bio-inspired soft robots and the latest developments in each direction. Finally, after an in-depth review of various soft bio-inspired robot driving technologies in recent years, we summarize the issues and challenges encountered in the advancement of soft robot actuation technology.展开更多

文摘Using the new soft X-ray data from the Macao Science Satellite-1,we studied a solar flare that occurred on 22 June 2023.We found that the centroids of the Ca(around 3.9 keV)and Fe(around 6.7 keV)line features exhibit a rapid shift toward higher energy channels during the flare's rising phase,followed by a gradual decrease during the decay phase.Through precise energy calibration,the centroids are determined with high accuracy.Temperature and velocity are then self-consistently derived by comparing the centroids with those calculated from the synthesized line features using the latest CHIANTI atomic database(ver.10.1).The calculated maximum velocity reaches up to 710±60 km s-1,which significantly exceeds the previously reported values.Our results suggest that the entire shift of soft X-ray lines may occur during the process of chromospheric evaporation.

文摘Surrounding rock deterioration and large deformation have always been a significant difficulty in designing and constructing tunnels in soft rock.The key lies in real-time perception and quantitative assessment of the damaged area around the tunnel.An in situ microseismic(MS)monitoring system is established in the plateau soft tock tunnel.This technique facilitates spatiotemporal monitoring of the rock mass's fracturing expansion and squeezing deformation,which agree well with field convergence deformation results.The formation mechanisms of progressive failure evolution of soft rock tunnels were discussed and analyzed with MS data and numerical results.The results demonstrate that:(1)Localized stress concentration and layered rock result in significant asymmetry in micro-fractures propagation in the tunnel radial section.As excavation continues,the fracture extension area extends into the deep surrounding rockmass on the east side affected by the weak bedding;(2)Tunnel excavation and long-term deformation can induce tensile shear action on the rock mass,vertical tension fractures(account for 45%)exist in deep rockmass,which play a crucial role in controlling the macroscopic failure of surrounding rock;and(3)Based on the radiated MS energy,a three-dimensional model was created to visualize the damage zone of the tunnel surrounding rock.The model depicted varying degrees of damage,and three high damage zones were identified.Generally,the depth of high damage zone ranged from 4 m to 12 m.This study may be a valuable reference for the warning and controlling of large deformations in similar projects.
文摘From[J.Differential Geom.,1990,31(1):285-299],one can obtain that compact self-shrinking hypersufaces in R^(n+1) with constant scalar curvature must be the standard sphere S^(n)(√n)(cf.[Front.Math.,2023,18(2):417-430]).This result was generalized by Guo[J.Math.Soc.Japan,2018,70(3):1103-1110]with assumption of a lower or upper scalar curvature bound.In this paper,we will generalize the scalar curvature rigidity theorem of Guo to the case of λ-hypersurfaces.We will also give an alternative proof of the theorem(cf.[2014,arXiv:1410.5302]and[Proc.Amer.Math.Soc.,2018,146(10):4459-4471])that λ-hypersurfaces which are entire graphs must be hyperplanes.
文摘Five cadmium naphthalene-diphosphonates,formulated as[Cd_(1.5)(1,4-ndpaH_(2))2(4,4'-bpyH)(4,4'-bpy)0.5(H_(2)O)_(2)]2(1),[Cd(1,4-ndpaH_(2))(1,4-bib)0.5(H_(2)O)](2),[Cd(1,4-ndpaH3)2(1,2-dpe)(H_(2)O)]·(1,2-dpe)·7H_(2)O(3),(1,2-bixH)[Cd3(1,4-ndpaH)(1,4-ndpaH_(2))2(H_(2)O)_(2)](4),and[Cd(1,4-ndpaH_(2))(H_(2)O)]·H_(2)O(5),have been synthesized from the selfassembly reactions of 1,4-naphthalenediphosphonic acid(1,4-ndpaH4)with Cd(NO3)2·4H_(2)O by introducing auxiliary ligands with variation of rigidity,such as 4,4'-bipyridine(4,4'-bpy),1,4-bis(1-imidazolyl)benzene(1,4-bib),1,2-di(4-pyridyl)ethylene(1,2-dpe),1,3-di(4-pyridyl)propane(1,3-dpp),and bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene(1,2-bix),respectively.Structure resolution by single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that compound 1 possesses a layered framework,in which the{Cd3(PO2)2}trimers made up of corner-sharing two{CdO4N2}and one{CdO6}octahedra are connected by phosphonate groups,forming a ribbon,which are cross-linked by 4,4'-bipy ligands,forming a 2D layer.Compound 2 shows a 3D open-framework structure,where chains of corner-sharing{CdO4N}trigonal bipyramids and{PO3C}tetrahedra are cross-linked by 1,4-bib and/or phosphonate groups.A 1D ladder-like chain structure is found in compound 3,where the ladder-like chains made up of corner-sharing{CdO5N}octahedra and{PO3C}tetra hedra are connected by 1,4-ndpaH_(2)^(2-).Both compounds 4 and 5 obtained by the introduction of flexible ligands during the synthesis show a 2D layered structure,which is formed by ligand crosslinking double metal chains.Interestingly,In 4,flexible 1,2-bix was singly protonated,as vip molecules,filled between layer and layer,while flexible ligand 1,3-dpp is absent in 5.Photophysical measurements indicate that compounds 1-5 show ligand-centered emissions.

文摘FeSiAl-based soft magnetic composites(SMCs),prepared from insulated FeSiAl powders,are widely applied in electronic devices.However,it is still challenging to achieve high magnetic and mechanical properties simultaneously due to the undesirable insulation layer.Here,double Al_(2)O_(3) insulation layers are prepared for FeSiAl SMC.Atomic-scale characterizations reveal an in-situ epitaxial Al_(2)O_(3) layer at FeSiAl surface under the catalysis of NaAlO_(2),and an outer amorphous Al_(2)O_(3) layer by subsequent NaAlO2 hydrolysis.The above structure ensures effective insulation of FeSiAl powders and excellent magnetic properties of the FeSiAl/NaAlO2 SMC,with permeability of 101 and power loss of 128 mW/cm^(3)(50 mT,100 kHz)respectively.Moreover,in-situ Al_(2)O_(3)/amorphous Al_(2)O_(3) on FeSiAl matrix also leads to distinguished crush strength of 36.5 MPa for the core sample,which is ascribed to the enhanced adhesion at different interfaces as evidenced by similar local oxygen coordination and low strain distribution.This work provides a novel method to fabricate high-performance FeSiAl SMCs.

文摘Soft robots have partially or entirely provided versatile opportunities for issues or roles that cannot be addressed by conventional machine robots,although most studies are limited to designs,controls,or physical/mechanical motions.Here,we present a transformable,reconfigurable robotic platform created by the integration of magnetically responsive soft composite matrices with deformable multifunctional electronics.Magnetic compounds engineered to undergo phase transition at a low temperature can readily achieve reversible magnetization and conduct various changes of motions and shapes.Thin and flexible electronic system designed with mechanical dynamics does not interfere with movements of the soft electronic robot,and the performances of wireless circuit,sensors,and devices are independent of a variety of activities,all of which are verified by theoretical studies.Demonstration of navigations and electronic operations in an artificial track highlights the potential of the integrated soft robot for on-demand,environments-responsive movements/metamorphoses,and optoelectrical detection and stimulation.Further improvements to a miniaturized,sophisticated system with material options enable in situ monitoring and treatment in envisioned areas such as biomedical implants.

文摘This article provides a comprehensive exploration of the current research landscape in the field of soft actuation technology applied to bio-inspired soft robots. In sharp contrast to their conventional rigid counterparts, bio-inspired soft robots are primarily constructed from flexible materials, conferring upon them remarkable adaptability and flexibility to execute a multitude of tasks in complex environments. However, the classification of their driving technology poses a significant challenge owing to the diverse array of employed driving mechanisms and materials. Here, we classify several common soft actuation methods from the perspectives of the sources of motion in bio-inspired soft robots and their bio-inspired objects, effectively filling the classification system of soft robots, especially bio-inspired soft robots. Then, we summarize the driving principles and structures of various common driving methods from the perspective of bionics, and discuss the latest developments in the field of soft robot actuation from the perspective of driving modalities and methodologies. We then discuss the application directions of bio-inspired soft robots and the latest developments in each direction. Finally, after an in-depth review of various soft bio-inspired robot driving technologies in recent years, we summarize the issues and challenges encountered in the advancement of soft robot actuation technology.

文摘Owing to the presence of large residual internal stress during cold compaction,it is difficult to optimize the multiple high-frequency magnetic properties of amorphous soft magnetic composites(ASMCs)simultaneously.Here,a surface nanoengineering strategy was proposed to address the above dilemma by constructing a stress buffer layer composed of amorphous nano-particles,between amorphous powder and insulation coating.The amorphous FeSiBCCr@x wt.%FeB(x=0.5,1,3)composite powders with coreshell structures were successfully prepared via an in-situ chemical reduction method.Especially,when the composite ratio of nano-particles is 1 wt.%,the comprehensive properties of the ASMC reach the best balance.Compared with the FeSiBCCr ASMC,the saturation magnetization of the modified ASMC enhances from 153 to 171 emu/g.Meanwhile,the core loss decreases by 28.25%,while the effective permeability increases by 25% and can stabilize to∼20 MHz.Therefore,our work provides a strategy for achieving superior comprehensive soft magnetic properties of ASMCs via surface nanoengineering,which presents enormous application potential in high-frequency electric devices.

文摘Two CoⅡ-based complexes,{[Co(dps)_(2)(N_(3))_(2)]·H_(2)O}_n(1)and[Co(dps)_(2)(N_(3))_(2)]_n(2),show a 1D chain and a 3D network,respectively.The central CoⅡions in the complexes have the same coordination environment with the[Co(dps)_(4)(N_(3))_(2)]unit.Although the differences in crystal parameters are nearly negligible,their magnetic properties are very different.AC susceptibility data show that 1 behaves as a typical field-induced single-ion magnet(SIM)with the out-of-phase(χ_(M)”)signals,while 2 shows ac signals ofχ_(M)”without peaks even under applied dc filed within our measurement window.Far-IR magneto-spectra(FIRMS)show strong spin-phonon couplings at 0 T in 2,likely making the magnetic relaxation in 2 fast,while the couplings are negligible in 1.Small spin-phonon coupling in 1 likely leads to slower magnetic relaxation,making 1 a SIM.The difference in the properties is due to the structural rigidity of 2 in its 3D network,leading to stronger spin-phonon coupling.Combined high-field EPR(HF-EPR)and FIRMS studies give spin-Hamiltonian parameters,including D=64.0(9)cm^(-1),|E|=15.7(2)cm^(-1)for 1 and D=80.0(2)cm^(-1),|E|=19.0(1)cm^(-1)for 2.
文摘During restorative dental procedures,complete control over the operative site is critical for patient comfort,safety,and the operator’s access and visibility.The success of a fixed prosthesis depends on accurate impression making of the prepared finish lines on the abutment teeth.To optimise long-term outcomes for the fixed restoration,gingival retraction techniques should be used to decrease the marginal discrepancy among the restoration and the prepared abutment.Accurate marginal positioning of the restoration along the prepared finish line of the abutment is essential for therapeutic,preventive,and aesthetic purposes.

文摘Soft electronics,which are designed to function under mechanical deformation(such as bending,stretching,and folding),have become essential in applications like wearable electronics,artificial skin,and brain-machine interfaces.Crystalline silicon is one of the most mature and reliable materials for high-performance electronics;however,its intrinsic brittleness and rigidity pose challenges for integrating it into soft electronics.Recent research has focused on overcoming these limitations by utilizing structural design techniques to impart flexibility and stretchability to Si-based materials,such as transforming them into thin nanomembranes or nanowires.This review summarizes key strategies in geometry engineering for integrating crystalline silicon into soft electronics,from the use of hard silicon islands to creating out-of-plane foldable silicon nanofilms on flexible substrates,and ultimately to shaping silicon nanowires using vapor-liquid-solid or in-plane solid-liquid-solid techniques.We explore the latest developments in Si-based soft electronic devices,with applications in sensors,nanoprobes,robotics,and brain-machine interfaces.Finally,the paper discusses the current challenges in the field and outlines future research directions to enable the widespread adoption of silicon-based flexible electronics.
