Catheters integrated with microcoils for electromagnetic steering under the high, uniform
magnetic field within magnetic resonance (MR) scanners (3–7 Tesla) have enabled an …

Soft-growing robots are innovative devices that feature plant-inspired growth to navigate
environments. Thanks to their embodied intelligence of adapting to their surroundings and …

A magnetic-controlled flexible continuum robot (MFCR) is a kind of continuum robot with
small-size and flexibility that deforms under controlled magnetic fields, which makes MFCRs …

Many real-life problems that involve decisions under uncertainty are often sequentially
repeated and can be approached iteratively. Knowledge Gradient (KG) formulates the …

Different from the traditional deterministic user equilibrium (DUE) model based on fixed
travel time, the stochastic user equilibrium (SUE) model is established by assuming the …

Catheter-based endovascular interventional procedures have become increasingly popular
in recent years as they are less invasive and patients spend less time in the hospital with …

While designing an end‐effector tool for a specific task using an already available robotic
arm is a common strategy for developing robot‐based solutions, it is subject to the …

Due to the advantages of high flexibility, large workspace, and good human-body
compatibility, flexible tendon-driven surgical continuum robots have attracted a lot of …

Soft robotics have propelled advancements in medical applications such as endovascular
interventions through the development of soft steerable catheters. Despite their potential …

In order to ensure that a car-following model's output is as close to reality as possible, the
model's parameters must be calibrated carefully. As simulation models are computationally …
