Surface Integrated Printed Interdigital Structure for Process Monitoring the Curing of an Adhesive Joint

open access: yesProceedings, 2017
We present a printable interdigital structure, integrated into the surface of a component, to monitor the curing of two adhesively joint components during the fabrication process. In the factory of the future there is a need of new sensor concepts beside

Giant Electrostriction in Halide Perovskites Revisited With Double‐Modulation Interferometry

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A giant electrostrictive effect in lead halide perovskites had been reported previously. This work uses sensitive interferometry to measure the electromechanical response of various halide perovskite samples. The results reveal no intrinsic electrostrictive compression. Instead, the materials expand primarily under an applied electric field as a result

Tissue‐Adhesive Fabric‐Based Bioelectronics for Wearable and Implantable Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An implantable and wearable bioelectronic textile (iTextile) is introduced as a unified platform bridging wearable and implantable systems. By integrating a self‐healing polymer, stretchable silk fabric, conductive composite electrodes, and an adhesive hydrogel, the platform enables conformal, stable interfacing with soft tissues. The iTextile supports

Human actuation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Seit der Konzeption des Virtual-Reality-Headsets im Jahr 1968 argumentieren Forscher, der nächste Schritt in der virtuellen Realität ist nicht nur zu sehen und zu hören, sondern in virtuelle Welten auch fühlen zu können. Ein Ansatz solch haptisches Feedback zu geben ist die Verwendung mechanischer Ausrüstung, etwa Roboterarme, Exoskelette und ...

Age of Actuated Information and Age of Actuation in a Data-Caching Energy Harvesting Actuator

open access: yesGLOBECOM 2024 - 2024 IEEE Global Communications Conference
In this paper, we introduce two metrics, namely, age of actuation (AoA) and age of actuated information (AoAI), within a discrete-time system model that integrates data caching and energy harvesting (EH). AoA evaluates the timeliness of actions irrespective of the age of the information, while AoAI considers the freshness of the utilized data packet ...

Chemically Fueled Systems Chemistry Across Length Scales

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Chemically fueled reaction cycles regulate processes through single and multiple catalytic sites on the molecular and assembly scale. This gives rise to unique kinetically controlled properties/functions like spatio‐temporal catalysis, oscillations, optical properties, and perform work.
