Local time statistics and permeable barrier crossing: From Poisson to birth-death diffusion equations by Toby Kay, Luca Giuggioli

“…As the asymmetric permeabilities act akin to localized ratchet potentials that break spatial symmetry and detailed balance, the proposed arrangement of asymmetric barriers provides an example of a noise-induced drift without the need to time modulate any external force or create temporal correlations on the motion of a diffusing particle. …”

Design and Validation of a Biomimetic Leg-Claw Mechanism Capable of Perching and Grasping for Multirotor Drones by Yan Zhao, Ruzhi Xiang, Hui Li, Chang Wang, Jianhua Zhang, Xuan Liu, Yufei Hao

“…Additionally, its foldable, parallelogram-shaped legs bend under external forces, stretching the main tendon. A ratchet and pawl mechanism at the knee joint locks the leg in the bent position, thereby enhancing the gripping force of the claw. …”

Evaluation of osseointegration of dental implant with and without primary stability: An experimental study on sheep by Diyar M. Kheder, Ahmed A. Hayder

“…Forty implants were inserted, 20 implants in the study group (3.3 mm diameter and 8 mm length) and 20 implants in the control group (4.3 mm diameter and 8 mm length), after 3 months the 4 sheep were sacrificed and the universal torque ratchet and Periotest was used to measure the stability of the dental implants clinically. …”
