To control the dynamics of these processes, we constructed a modular chemical reaction network, shown schematically in control-theoretic terms 23 in Fig. 1a. A ‘trigger’ produces an initial chemical ...

The proposed bistable gripper can maintain its grasp even without continuous energy input, while also being able to modulate its activation force, representing a new paradigm in robotic gripper design ...

If we are using a multivibrator whose timing is determined by analog means, we will need to take component tolerances into account. In a recent column on the topic of “Registers vs. Latches vs.
