TESCLA: A Fully Soft Electromagnetic Linear Actuator With Continuous Bending Enabled by Liquid‐Metal Solenoids

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
TESCLA (tubular electromagnetic soft conformal linear actuator) combines liquid‐metal solenoids and compliant magnetic composites to achieve large‐stroke bidirectional actuation with continuous bending. Integrated inductance‐based self‐sensing enables proprioceptive position estimation without external sensors, providing a versatile platform for soft ...

On the Settling Speed of Dilute Arrays of Spheres [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
A method is developed to calculate the settling speed of dilute arrays of spheres for the three cases of: I, a random array of freely moving particles; II, a random array of rigidly held particles; and III, a cubic array of particles.

Conformal Thermoreversible Gelatin‐Based Gel for High‐Fidelity Electrophysiological Recording and Acute Peripheral Nerve Interfacing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A thermoreversible gelatin‐based gel forms a soft, conformal bioelectronic interface on complex biological surfaces. The flowable precursor penetrates hair‐dense regions, solidifies in situ, and maintains low impedance through adaptive contact and hydration retention.

Fast Hydrogel Micro‐Actuators Driven by Electric Fields

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
We report the fabrication of chemically programmable electroactuating microstructures through the first integration of two‐photon polymerization with electrically actuated gelatin methacrylate‐based hydrogels. By tailoring the charge of the polymer network, we demonstrate programmable polarity‐dependent bending, enabling microstructures that ...

An investigation of a frequency diverse array [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This thesis presents a novel concept for focusing an antenna beam pattern as a function of range, time, and angle. In conventional phased arrays, beam steering is achieved by applying a linear phase progression across the aperture.

Cylindrical Resonator Sectorally Filled With DNG Metamaterial and Excited by a Line Source [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A circular cylindrical resonator with metallic walls is analyzed in the phasor domain. The resonator contains a wedge of double-negative (DNG) metamaterial that is anti-isorefractive to the double-positive (DPS) material filling the remaining volume of ...

An Efficient 2-D DOA Estimation for a Cylindrical Conformal Array with Unknown Mutual Coupling

open access: yesInternational Journal of Antennas and Propagation, 2018
The limited space of a conformal array may lead to a serious mutual coupling effect, which will significantly affect the performance of direction of arrival (DOA) estimation algorithms.

Toward Pore‐Engineered 3D‐Printed Materials for Sorption Water Harvesting, Interfacial Evaporation, and Radiative Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Water harvesting, radiative cooling, and interfacial solar evaporation are fundamentally governed by coupled heat, mass, and light transport processes. These processes are mediated by pore architecture, including pore size, connectivity, and hierarchical organization.
