From muscle fibres to muscle gears: how dynamic fascicle orientation and shape change impact skeletal muscle function

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Skeletal muscle architectural design strongly affects force‐generating capacity and excursion range, and its functional importance to animal and human movement is well founded. Traditionally, this ‘structure–function relation’ has been inferred from architecture measurements with muscles at rest (from anatomical dissections or medical imaging ...

Fueling Tomorrow: Scenario Planning for the Future of Gas Stations

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transport electrification is reshaping the service infrastructures that mediate everyday mobility, yet most electrification scenario studies remain macrolevel and offer limited insight into how incumbent forecourt (gas‐station) networks can adapt under deep uncertainty.

Triboelectric–Electromagnetic Generator‐Enabled Hybrid Power Backpack for Self‐Powered Field Safety Management

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A lightweight hybrid backpack integrating SC‐TENGs and R‐EMGs harvests biomechanical energy during walking. With a low activation speed of 3 km h−1 and a high specific power of 0.18 W kg−1, it enables self‐powered field safety management. The power backpack refers to an energy‐harvesting solution engineered to mitigate battery reliance in wearable ...

Design and Implementation of Active Brake Pedal Simulator Integrating Force Feedback and Energy Optimization

open access: yesWorld Electric Vehicle Journal
Brake pedals and wheel braking units are mechanically decoupled in brake-by-wire systems. This causes the driver to lose the familiar pedal feel. To address this issue, this paper designed an active braking pedal simulator based on the long-travel ...

The basal ganglia and the epilepsies

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The basal ganglia are an evolutionarily conserved neural circuit best known for the selection and sequencing of voluntary movement. Increasing evidence, however, indicates that these structures also play an important role in regulating pathological brain states, including seizures.

Effects of cooling rate on vermicular graphite percentage in a brake drum produced by one-step cored wire injection [PDF]

open access: yesChina Foundry, 2015
In this research, a vermicular graphite cast iron brake drum was produced by cored wire injection in a one-step method. Silica sand and low-density alumina-silicate ceramic were used as molding materials in order to investigate the effect of cooling rate
