Monthly sampling reveals seasonal fine sediment fluctuations and riverine invertebrate community responses by Noah G Davis, Kate Mathers, Roger Hodson, Christoph D Matthaei

“…Unfortunately, no existing studies have employed an appropriate sampling frequency over a period encompassing the full range of seasonal flow conditions expected to influence in-stream sediment dynamics. We determined the short-term (monthly) dynamics of deposited fine sediment and invertebrate communities over 12-months in 15 fourth- and fifth-order rivers draining catchments of low, medium and high land-use intensity in Southland, New Zealand to determine when and where fine sediment threatens stream health. …”

Towards a more controllable sensorised soft gripper: a data-driven approach by Khaled Elgeneidy

“…However, several open research challenges exist that are hindering the full utilisation of soft robotic components. In the context of soft grippers, relying primarily on the soft nature of the fingers to passively and gently adapt to its targets although highly desirable, consequently means that no sensory feedback is available to have better control over the grasping process or confirm its success.In this research, a low-cost soft gripper was developed based on the ribbed pneumatic bending actuators with embedded bend sensing, in order to investigate the potential for sensor-guided control of soft gripper fingers. …”
