My strongest work is organized around explicit acceptance gates, reproducible analysis, and honest negative results—not just finished-looking demos. Where a result is simulation-only or a measurement is still pending, the repository says so.
When should a soft robot recalibrate? A reproducible simulation study of pressure–volume probes and pressure-only pose estimation. Across 2,000 actuator-split traces, P-V loop area tracks fatigue compliance drift at pooled r = 0.885, and the deployed trigger has no positive temporal lead—a limitation reported rather than tuned away. The archived v1.3 manuscript carries a published correction notice for a methods overstatement; a corrected candidate is under author review, with no DOI or arXiv identifier claimed.
F1TENTH-scale vehicle modeling, system identification, controls, ROS 2 telemetry, and LiDAR-mast structural design. The baseline mast failed its ≥200 Hz modal guard at 174.7 Hz; the redesigned geometry clears it at 285.5 Hz in mesh-converged FEA, a 1.43× margin. A calibrated physical compliance test is preregistered and measurement is pending.
Guarded micro-UAV release-to-recovery study. The robustness sweep recovers only 4.0% under placeholder torque; an assumed four-motor mixer combined with a revised controller recovers 300/300 in the reported sweep—not an isolated torque fix. The deciding 7.0 V bench gate is frozen at 0.020 N·m with at least 962/1,000 primary recovery trials; measurement is pending.
