Abstract: A simulator is designed to explore the interactive mechanism of a plasma jet with the liquid medium in the bulkloaded liquid electrothermal chemical launching process. The properties of the plasma jet expanding in the ...

Abstract: This paper focuses on designing, kinematically and dynamically characterizing a novel deformable quad-rotor that is based on the scissor-like foldable mechanisms. Inspired by morphological adaptation of birds during flight, ...

Abstract: Inspired by natural earthworms’ locomotion mechanism, this paper investigates how the earthworm’s muscle works and presents the approach to mimic segmental muscle by employing rigid elementsbased morphing structures. ...
