DOI: 10.1055/s-0038-1675147
Abstract: Background Limb‐sparing treatment of extremity soft tissue sarcomas requires wide resections and radiation therapy. The resulting complex composite defects necessitate reconstructions using either muscle or fasciocutaneous flaps, often in irradiated wound beds. Methods A retrospective… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/tmech.2016.2636199
Abstract: Continuum robots have attracted increasing focus in recent years due to their intrinsic compliance that allows for dexterous and safe movements. However, the inherent compliance in such systems reduces the structural stiffness, and therefore leads… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.abn5722
Abstract: An artificial muscle capable of shape programmability, deformation-locking capacity without needing continuous external energy, and self-sensing capability is highly desirable yet challenging in applications of reconfigurable antenna, deployable space structures, etc. Inspired by coupled behavior… read more here.
