PZT-Film-Based Piezoelectric Micromachined Ultrasonic Transducer with I-Shaped Composite Diaphragm
We proposed a PZT-film-based piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducer (pMUT) with an I-shaped composite diaphragm to improve the sensitivity and resonant frequency of pMUTs with the same diaphragm area. The finite element method (FEM) simulation

Optogenetic activation of the diaphragm
Impaired diaphragm activation is common in many neuromuscular diseases. We hypothesized that expressing photoreceptors in diaphragm myofibers would enable light stimulation to evoke functional diaphragm activity, similar to endogenous bursts.

Reversal modeling and optimal design of hyper-elastic diaphragm in space fuel tanks
Diaphragm tanks are a common type of pressurized tanks in which the diaphragm is used to separate the fuel part from the high-pressure part, compress the fuel in the tank, and reduce free space to avoid liquid fuel sloshing.
