Pulsed actuation avoids failure in dielectric elastomer artificial muscles

open access: yesInternational Journal of Smart and Nano Materials, 2014
Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) are a class of artificial muscles capable of large linear strains (well over 100%), and with high energy density, and low cost and weight.

Electrical breakdown in vacuum

open access: yesVacuum, 1953
Direct and impulse voltages were applied to an electrode system in a vacuum of the order of 10−5 mm Hg. Of particular interest were the results obtained with a needle-and-sphere system, the breakdown voltage of which was considerably higher than that of a normal sphere-gap with the same electrode spacing, especially when a very fine needle was used ...

Longitudinal Changes in Adiposity After a Youth Sport‐Related Knee Injury: Informing Posttraumatic Osteoarthritis Prevention

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Youth who experience a sport‐related knee injury have elevated odds of becoming overweight or developing obesity in 3 to 10 years, compounding their risk for posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). To inform prevention strategies, this study compared patterns of adiposity change between youth with a sport‐related knee injury and uninjured youth ...
