Viscous rotary vane actuator/damper [PDF]

open access: yes, 1976
A compact viscous rotary actuator/damper for use on the Mariner '71 and Viking Programs was developed. Several functions were combined into this single mechanism to control the deployment, latching, and damping of the solar panel arrays used on these ...

Additively Manufactured 3D Auxetic Metamaterials for Structurally Guided Capacitive and Resistive Tactile Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D‐architected auxetic metamaterial is used to construct capacitive and resistive tactile sensors via digital light processing‐based additive manufacturing. The inward deformation of the proposed structure under compression amplifies local strain, enhancing sensing performance.

Enzyme‐Regulated Extended Swelling of Hydrogels for Dehiscence‐Less Tissue Expansions

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An interpenetrating hydrogel network with swelling under regulation by enzymatic degradation (INSURED) is fabricated to avoid dehiscence. INSURED remains structurally intact post‐implantation, while HYAL injection enables control over the onset and rate of swelling.

An Unknown Input Multi-Observer Approach for Estimation and Control under Adversarial Attacks

open access: yes, 2019
We address the problem of state estimation, attack isolation, and control of discrete-time linear time-invariant systems under (potentially unbounded) actuator and sensor false data injection attacks.

Photoswitching Conduction in Framework Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This mini‐review summarizes recent advances in state‐of‐the‐art proton and electron conduction in framework materials that can be remotely and reversibly switched on and off by light. It discusses the various photoswitching conduction mechanisms and the strategies employed to enhance photoswitched conductivity.

Superconducting linear actuator [PDF]

open access: yes
Special actuators are needed to control the orientation of large structures in space-based precision pointing systems. Electromagnetic actuators that presently exist are too large in size and their bandwidth is too low.

Theoretical framework to surpass the Betz limit using unsteady fluid mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The Betz limit expresses the maximum proportion of the kinetic energy flux incident on an energy conversion device that can be extracted from an unbounded flow.

Photoresponsive Gas‐Permeable Membranes: Fundamentals, Innovations, and Prospects

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Photoresponsive gas‐permeable membranes can be potentially used for smart packing, carbon capture, hydrogen purification, and optical gas valves due to their remote and non‐contact activation, precise spatial and temporal control, and reversible switching capabilities.
