Optical Durability of Contemporary PV Encapsulants Through Artificial UV Weathering

open access: yesProgress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.
Encapsulant choice can be used to mitigate UV‐induced degradation in modern silicon photovoltaic modules, but this strategy is only effective if encapsulants are durable under UV weathering. This study identifies optical changes to 14 commercial encapsulants as a function of UV weathering and identifies that, while changes to material transmittance ...

Enhancing Reference Tracking in Induction Motor Drives: A Hybrid Model Predictive Control and Artificial Neural Network Approach

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Induction motors (IMs) are widely used in industry for their robustness and cost‐effectiveness, yet their nonlinear and multivariable dynamics pose significant challenges for high‐performance speed control. Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a well‐established solution but suffers from limitations related to model accuracy and parameter ...

A Design Specifications Template for Wearable Haptic Interfaces: A Case Study for Robotic Gripper Applications

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wearable haptic interfaces are increasingly important for enhancing human robot collaboration, particularly in decision critical tasks that require intuitive and reliable interaction. Despite advances in wearable systems, existing designs often lack a structured framework that systematically integrates sensing, actuation, control, and user ...

Soft Colloidal Robots: Magnetically Guided Liquid Crystal Torons for Targeted Micro‐Cargo Delivery

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Torons, topological quasiparticles in liquid crystals, can be propelled using electric fields and precisely steered with magnetic alignment, enabling programmable motion without fluid flow. In microfluidic channels, they transport colloidal cargo and exhibit novel dynamic behavior. Their uniformity, softness, and reconfigurability make torons ideal for
