A light- and heat-seeking vine-inspired robot with material-level responsiveness
Shivani Deglurkar, Charles Xiao, Luke F. Gockowski +2
The fields of soft and bio-inspired robotics promise to imbue synthetic systems with capabilities found in the natural world. However, many of these biological capabilities are yet…
Molecular-scale substrate anisotropy and crowding drive long-range nematic order of cell monolayers
Yimin Luo, Mengyang Gu, Minwook Park +7
The ability of cells to reorganize in response to external stimuli is important in areas ranging from morphogenesis to tissue engineering. Elongated cells can co-align due to steri…
Uncertainty quantification and estimation in differential dynamic microscopy
Mengyang Gu, Yimin Luo, Yue He +2
Differential dynamic microscopy (DDM) is a form of video image analysis that combines the sensitivity of scattering and the direct visualization benefits of microscopy. DDM is broa…
Thermodynamically-informed Air-based Soft Heat Engine Design
Charles Xiao, Luke F. Gockowski, Bolin Liao +2
Soft heat engines are poised to play a vital role in future soft robots due to their easy integration into soft structures and low-voltage power requirements. Recent works have dem…
