Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This article proposes a novel data‐driven approach for force contact location sensing (FCLS), based on scatter signals of the ultrasonic waveguide, with the influence of sensor strain and forces. The experimental results indicate that the accuracy of the proposed FCLS method has an mean absolute error loss of 0.627 mm and a mean relative error loss of ...

Electropneumatic Oscillators Using Nonlinear Inflatables
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.In animals, self‐oscillations are essential to coordinate locomotion and other bodily functions. By combining hysteretic membranes with a resistive strain sensor, an electropneumatic self‐oscillator with an oscillation frequency that directly depends upon geometric parameters in the fluidic domain is introduced.

How to Nurture Scientific Discoveries Despite Their Unpredictable Nature [PDF]
arXiv, 2012 The history of science reveals that major discoveries are not predictable. Naively, one might conclude therefore that it is not possible to artificially cultivate an environment that promotes discoveries. I suggest instead that open research without a programmatic agenda establishes a fertile ground for unexpected breakthroughs.

Inconsistency of Carnot's theorem's proof by William Thomson [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 William Thomson proved Carnot's theorem basing on postulate: "It is impossible, by means of inanimate material agency, to derive mechanical effect from any portion of matter by cooling it below the temperature of the coldest of the surrounding objects".

Innovating to amplify the voices of young people from marginalized ethnic migrant backgrounds
American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract The meaningful participation of young people from marginalized ethnic backgrounds in civic processes is central to the social cohesion of increasingly diverse liberal democracies, but their participation is compromised by a range of barriers resulting in decision‐making that is disconnected from their lives.

Metaphysics or Metaphors for the Anthropocene? Scientific Naturalism and the Agency of Things
Open Philosophy, 2018 In this paper, I provide the outlines of an alternative metaphilosophical orientation for Continental philosophy, namely, a form of scientific naturalism that has proximate roots in the work of Bachelard and Althusser.
