We investigate the effect of rotational inertia on the collective phenomena of underdamped active systems and show that the increase of the moment of inertia of each particle favors non-equilibrium phase coexistence, known as motility induced phase separation, and counteracts its suppression due to translational inertia. Our conclusion is supported by a non-equilibrium phase diagram (in the plane spanned by rotational inertial time and translational inertial time) whose transition line is understood theoretically through scaling arguments. In addition, rotational inertia increases the correlation length of the spatial velocity correlations in the dense cluster. The fact that rotational inertia enhances collective phenomena, such as motility induced phase separation and spatial velocity correlations, is strongly linked to the increase of rotational persistence. Moreover, large moments of inertia induce non-monotonic temporal (cross) correlations between translational and rotational degrees of freedom truly absent in non-equilibrium systems.

A Flapping-Wing Rotor (FWR) is a novel bio-inspired micro aerial vehicle configuration, featuring unique wing motions which combine active flapping and passive rotation for high lift production. Power efficiency in flight has recently emerged as a critical factor in FWR development. The current study investigates an elastic flapping mechanism to improve FWRs' power efficiency by incorporating springs into the system.

Atomically resolved scanning tunneling microscope (STM) capable of in situ rotation in a narrow magnet bore has become a long-awaited but challenging technique in the field of strong correlation studies since it can introduce the orientation of the strong magnetic field as a control parameter. This article presents the design and functionality of a piezoelectrically driven rotatable STM (RSTM), operating within a 12 T cryogen-free magnet and achieving a base temperature below 1.8 K, along with spectroscopic capabilities.

Building a high-proportion renewable energy power system is a key measure to address the challenges of the energy revolution and climate change. However, current high-proportion renewable energy systems face issues of frequency instability and voltage fluctuations. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a novel topology for a stator free speed regulating wind turbine generation system.

Article Synopsis
- The hydraulic secondary regulation drive system uses a hydraulic servo motor for precise position tracking but suffers from issues like high inertia and low damping, which reduce control accuracy.
- This paper proposes a cascaded control strategy that incorporates adaptive robust control, utilizing a fifth-order model to split the system into inner and outer control loops for better management of uncertainties and disturbances.
- Experimental results demonstrate that this new method significantly improves position tracking accuracy by 50% to 80% compared to traditional methods, even under varying frequency commands.
