Fabrication of Aligned Polycaprolactone Nanofibrillar Bundles to Control Cell‐Mediated Collagen Deposition in Engineered Cartilage

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Melt electrofibrillation (MEF) enables the fabrication of nanofibrillar PCL scaffolds with defined architectures that guide cellular alignment and retention during cartilage tissue engineering. Unlike conventional melt electrowriting, MEF consistently directs collagen type II‐rich extracellular matrix organization, providing a tunable platform to ...

Clamp-force estimation for a brake-by-wire system: a sensor-fusion approach

, 2008
The elimination of a clamp-force sensor from brake-by-wire system designs is strongly demanded due to implementation difficulties and cost issues. In this paper, a new method is presented to estimate the clamp force based on other sensory information ...
