Using arborescences to estimate hierarchicalness in directed complex networks.
Complex networks are a useful tool for the understanding of complex systems.One of the emerging properties of such systems is their tendency to form hierarchies: networks can be organized in levels, with nodes in each level exerting control on the ones beneath them.In this paper, we focus on the problem of estimating how hierarchical a directed net

Analysis of Structure and Function of Ladybird Leg and Subsequent Design and Fabrication of a Simplified Leg Structure for Robotic Applications
Many insects are able to walk vertically or upside down on both hard and soft surfaces.In beetles such as the ladybird (Coccinella septempunctata), intermolecular forces between tarsal setae on the footpads of the insects make this movement c6 corvette door handle possible.In prior work, adhesion structures made from polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) tha
