Published in 2019 at "Microsystem Technologies"

DOI: 10.1007/s00542-018-4274-7

Abstract: The stick–slip driving is widely used in the field of nanotechnology because of its high resolution and theoretically unlimited displacement. However, it suffers from such problems as low velocity and one-step displacement instability. In this… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Mechanical Systems and Signal Processing"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ymssp.2021.108226

Abstract: Abstract A stochastic interpretation of the stick/slip mechanism is proposed to model and mitigate the complicated friction interaction that occurs between surfaces, with direct implications on the stability of dynamic mechanical systems involved. Most investigations… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces"

DOI: 10.1021/acsami.5c09866

Abstract: Nanofriction experiments typically produce force traces exhibiting atomic stick–slip oscillations, which researchers have traditionally analyzed with ad hoc algorithms. This study successfully unravels the potential of machine learning (ML) to interpret nanofriction force traces and… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of the Royal Society Interface"

DOI: 10.1098/rsif.2021.0854

Abstract: Human reaction delay significantly limits manual control of unstable systems. It is more difficult to balance a short stick on a fingertip than a long one, because a shorter stick falls faster and therefore requires… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences"

DOI: 10.1098/rspb.2018.0425

Abstract: Extant stick and leaf insects commonly imitate twigs or leaves, with lateral lamellae used to enhance crypsis or achieve mimicry for protection. However, the origin and early evolution of such lateral expansions among Phasmatodea are… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics"

DOI: 10.1109/tvcg.2023.3247047

Abstract: This paper proposes a general handheld stick haptic redirection method that allows the user to experience complex shapes with haptic feedback through both tapping and extended contact, such as in contour tracing. As the user… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "PLOS Biology"

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pbio.3002609

Abstract: Tool use is considered a driving force behind the evolution of brain expansion and prolonged juvenile dependency in the hominin lineage. However, it remains rare across animals, possibly due to inherent constraints related to manual… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Molecules"

DOI: 10.3390/molecules24203664

Abstract: A wooden stick coated with a novel graphene-based nanocomposite (Graphene oxide/polyethylene glycol (GO/PEG)) is introduced and investigated for its efficacy in solid phase microextraction techniques. The GO/PEG-stick was prepared and subsequently applied for the extraction… read more here.
