A review of nanometer resolution position sensors: Operation and performance

AJ Fleming - Sensors and Actuators A: Physical, 2013 - Elsevier
Position sensors with nanometer resolution are a key component of many precision imaging
and fabrication machines. Since the sensor characteristics can define the linearity …

Finite element modeling of soft fluidic actuators: Overview and recent developments

MS Xavier, AJ Fleming, YK Yong - Advanced Intelligent …, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Many soft robots are composed of soft fluidic actuators that are fabricated from silicone
rubbers and use hydraulic or pneumatic actuation. The strong nonlinearities and complex …

Soft pneumatic actuators: A review of design, fabrication, modeling, sensing, control and applications

MS Xavier, CD Tawk, A Zolfagharian, J Pinskier… - IEEE …, 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org

Post-processual landscape archaeology: a critique

A Fleming - Cambridge Archaeological Journal, 2006 - cambridge.org
Post-processual theorists have characterized landscape archaeology as practised in the
second half of the twentieth century as over-empirical. They have asserted that the discipline …

Local expression of expansin induces the entire process of leaf development and modifies leaf shape

S Pien, J Wyrzykowska… - Proceedings of the …, 2001 - National Acad Sciences
Expansins are a family of extracellular proteins proposed to play a key role in wall stress
