Electromagnetically Driven Robot for Multipurpose Applications by Abdulrahman Alrumayh, Khaled Alhassoon, Fahd Alsaleem, Mahmoud Shaban, Fahad Nasser Alsunaydih

“…Traditional continuum robots, while effective in navigating constrained environments, often face limitations in actuation methods, such as wire-based systems or pre-curved tubes. Our design overcomes these challenges by utilizing electromagnetically driven actuation, which allows each segment of the robot to bend independently at any angle, providing unprecedented flexibility and control. …”

Optimization of the Coupling Coefficient of the Inductive Link for Wireless Power Transfer to Biomedical Implants by Jiarui Bao, Shuyan Hu, Zibin Xie, Guangxi Hu, Ye Lu, Lirong Zheng

“…When the distance between the transmitting (Tx) and Rx coils is fixed at 20 mm, it is found that, to maximize k, the Tx coil in a planar spiral configuration with an average radius of 20 mm is preferred, and the Rx coil in a solenoid configuration with a wire pitch of 0.7 mm is recommended. Based on these optimization results, an inductive link WPT system is proposed; the coupling coefficient k, the power transfer efficiency (PTE), and the maximum power delivered to the load (MPDL) of the system are obtained with both simulation and experiment. …”
