A Sleeve Alters the Pressure‐Stretch Curve of a Hyperelastic Balloon to Enable Pre‐Programmed Sequencing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
This article demonstrates that encasing a hyperelastic balloon in an inextensible sleeve greatly increases its burst pressure. This simple mechanical behavior can be used to produce an asymmetric inflation‐deflation sequence for coupled balloons with different thicknesses so they could serve as a soft robot's rear and front anchors when driven from a ...

Asymmetric bifurcation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Australian Mathematical Society. Series B. Applied Mathematics, 1980
AbstractA study is made of a non-linear diffusion equation which admits bifurcating solutions in the case where the bifurcation is asymmetric. An analysis of the initial-value problem is made using the method of multiple scales, and the bifurcation and stability characteristics are determined.

Femtolitre Volume cryoEM Sample Preparation Using a Force‐Sensitive Microfluidic Cantilever

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Cryogenic electron microscopy enables structural imaging of biological molecules, but current methods lack targeted extraction of subcellular content for direct vitrification. This study introduces a force‐sensitive microfluidic cantilever pipette that aspirates and dispenses femtolitre volumes from individual cells onto electron microscopy grids.

Stability Aspects in One-Cycle Controlled Buck Converters

open access: yesAdvances in Electrical and Computer Engineering, 2014
The paper aims to investigate issues related to one cycle controlled buck converters stability, in the situation when the integration capacitor discharging is performed through a non-zero value resistor, as it happens in practice.

Hundreds of Nanocoulomb Electron Acceleration Driven by Multipetawatt Laser in Subcritical Density Plasmas

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
Electron acceleration using multipetawatt femtosecond lasers and subcritical density plasmas achieves a maximum charge of 245 nC, with an injection rate of up to 100 nC per picosecond. The charge variation with plasma density, initially increasing and then decreasing, arises from the competition between the injection of multiple plasma waves and laser ...
