Precise Real‐Time Measurement of Liquid Viscosity Using Digital Video Data

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Frame‐by‐frame image similarity analysis is employed to obtain the viscosity of moving liquids in real time. The method allows for online implementation even in harsh environments, replacing complex and invasive experiments. Quantitative knowledge of liquid viscosity is of fundamental importance in many areas of materials synthesis and processing ...

A Dual‐Ion Multiphysics Model for Smart and Sustainable Sensors Based on Bacterial Cellulose

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Bacterial cellulose (BC), functionalized with ionic liquids (ILs) and conductive polymers, offers promise for sustainable sensor applications. To enable real‐world integration, this work presents the first dual‐carrier, multiphysics white‐box model of mechanoelectric transduction in BC–IL sensors, combining mechanical deformation and ion transport ...

Effective Material Stiffness in Curved Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A new actuator effective material stiffness measurement method is created. It produces a new metric called shape actuation modulus with the potential to help design actuators. This method shows that the smaller the curvature of hinge‐shaped actuators, the stiffer they are.

Delivering a family‐based child mental health promotion program among two resettled refugee communities during the COVID‐19 pandemic: Lessons learned in a hybrid type II implementation‐effectiveness randomized controlled trial

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Resettled refugee families face elevated mental health risks, compounded by structural and cultural barriers. The Family Strengthening Intervention for Resettlement (FSIR), co‐developed with resettled refugee communities, aims to improve family functioning and child mental health.

Developing and Refining a Knowledge Assessment Instrument for Individuals Involved in Managing Occupational Heat Stress: Paper A

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Occupational heat stress poses a critical threat to workers' health, safety, and productivity. To effectively manage this hazard, occupational health and safety (OHS) representatives must comprehensively understand heat stress, heat‐associated injury and disease outcomes, and heat mitigation measures to protect workers.
