Oxygen redox is considered a new paradigm for increasing the practical capacity and energy density of the layered oxide cathodes for Na-ion batteries. However, severe local structural changes and phase transitions during anionic redox reactions lead to poor electrochemical performance with sluggish ***, we propose a synergy of Li-Cu cations in harnessing the full potential of oxygen redox, through Li displacement and suppressed phase transition in P3-type layered oxide cathode. P3-type Na_(0.7)[Li_(0.1)Cu_(0.2)Mn_(0.7)]O_(2) cathode delivers a large specific capacity of ~212 mA h g^(-1)at 15 mA g^(-1). The discharge capacity is maintained up to ~90% of the initial capacity after 100 cycles, with stable occurrence of the oxygen redox in the high-voltage region. Through advanced experimental analyses and first-principles calculations, it is confirmed that a stepwise redox reaction based on Cu and O ions occurs for the charge-compensation mechanism upon charging. Based on a concrete understanding of the reaction mechanism, the Li displacement by the synergy of Li-Cu cations plays a crucial role in suppressing the structural change of the P3-type layered material under the oxygen redox reaction, and it is expected to be an effective strategy for stabilizing the oxygen redox in the layered oxides of Na-ion batteries.

Proportional, integral, and derivative (PID) controllers have been widely adopted for industrial applications. However, these controllers are not very efficient for non-linear systems. Artificial neural networks (ANN) based on the Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) have great potential to replace PID controllers due to their polynomial structure, allowing complex non-linear systems to be controlled. This article introduces the integration of four MLPs as alternatives to a traditional PID controller. These MLPs were trained through four bioinspired algorithms tailored for following tasks in mobile robots. The bioinspired algorithms employed for MLP network training include Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO), Month-Flame Optimization (MFO), and Artificial Hummingbird Algorithm (AHA). A comparative analysis was conducted between these MLPs and a classic PID controller, focusing on parameters such as overshoot (OS), settling time (ST), and steady-state error for different simulated scenarios.

The design and behavior analysis of road structures remain a challenge for road designers due to the demands to which the roads are exposed and the continuous traffic type changes. This paper focuses on the roads traffic demands and presents a comparative study of two types of forest road structures, with one and two geogrids, for different vehicle axle loads. It is shown how, in terms of mechanical resistance, the geogrids' presence impacts the state of stress and deformation in the road for the forest road structures analyzed with the Alize specialized software.

We present a full-pose end-effector control approach on Lie groups for free-floating space manipulators with non-zero momentum while tracking a moving target during proximity operations. We model space-manipulators as open-chain multi-body systems with 1-degree-of-freedom joints where the configuration space of the spacecraft is isomorphic to the Special Euclidean group SE(3). We formulate the dynamics of the spacecraft-manipulator via the Lagrange-Poincare equations and the dynamics of its target via Euler-Poincare equations to avoid kinematic singularities associated with parametrization of their poses. This model reduces the phase space of the space-manipulator by exploiting its inherent independence of the spacecraft's pose. We consider the full pose of the end-effector relative to the target as the system output, which transforms the output-tracking control problem into an output-regulation problem. To avoid parametrization singularities of this output, we perform feedback linearization on the matrix Lie group SE (3) in the reduced phase space of the space-manipulator. We then propose a feedback/feedforward proportional-integral-derivative workspace controller, based on coordinate-free pose and velocity error functions defined on the matrix Lie group associated with the target's relative pose. We provide analytical proof of the almost-global stability of the presented controller when regulating the end-effector's pose relative to the target towards identity.

Robotic systems need advanced mobility capabili-ties to operate in complex, three-dimensional environments designed for human use, e.g., multi-level buildings. Incorporating some level of autonomy enables robots to operate robustly, reliably, and efficiently in such complex environments, e.g., automatically “returning home” if communication between an operator and robot is lost during deployment. This work presents a novel method that enables mobile robots to robustly operate in multi-level environments by making it possible to autonomously locate and climb a range of different staircases. We present results wherein a wheeled robot works together with a quadrupedal system to quickly detect different staircases and reliably climb them. The performance of this novel staircase detection algorithm that is able to run on the heterogeneous platforms is compared to the current state-of-the-art detection algorithm. We show that our approach significantly increases the accuracy and speed at which detections occur.

Human fingers exhibit remarkable dexterity and adaptability through a combination of structures with varying stiffness levels, ranging from soft tissues (low stiffness) to tendons and cartilage (medium stiffness) to bones (high stiffness). This paper focuses on the development of a robotic finger that emulates these multi-stiffness characteristics. Specifically, we propose utilizing a lattice configuration, parameterized by voxel size and unit cell geometry, to achieve fine-tuned stiffness properties with high precision. A key advantage of this approach is its compatibility with single-process 3D printing, which eliminates the need for manual assembly of components with varying stiffness. Using this method, we present a novel, human-like robotic finger and a soft gripper. The gripper is integrated with a rigid manipulator and demonstrated in pick-and-place tasks, showcasing its effectiveness.

Dynamic simulation is an important part of the design pipeline for robot controllers, but there is often a significant performance gap between the simulation domain and the real world. This sim-to-real gap makes transferring controllers developed in one simulation environment to other simulations or to real hardware systems difficult and time-consuming. Here, we introduce an approach to reduce this gap for the MIT Humanoid by using physically-feasible system identification methods to match dynamics models across domains, combined with neural networks to model any residual dynamics, such as friction. Using data from our real hardware system as the ground truth, we develop models for transfer from two separate simulation environments to hardware, as well as transfer between the two simulations. Finally, we show experimental results using our fitted dynamic models and characterize our domain transfer success.
