Abstract: Most bioinspired cable-driven continuum robots (CDCRs) usually employ a flexible backbone to realize the continuous deflection. For the CDCR to merely produce bending motions, its flexible ...

Flexible pavement systems form the backbone of contemporary road infrastructure, carrying the overwhelming majority of global ...

Admittedly, many people’s first thoughts about a roadway are the actual materials that line the roads that we drive on.

Abstract: This study proposes the SS-XceVNet meta-architecture, which integrates Xception and VGG16 to detect structural peeling in rigid pavements in an automated manner, thereby reducing the ...
