The Role of 3D Printing Technologies in Soft Grippers

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 36, Issue 34, August 22, 2024.
This article examines the applications of 3D printing to soft grippers, including those with sensors and those made of both functional and nonfunctional materials. The various classes of soft grippers that can be manufactured using 3D printing are discussed. There is also a discussion of challenges and potential development paths.

Well-posedness of weak solutions to electrorheological fluid equations with degeneracy on the boundary

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2017
In this article we study the electrorheological fluid equation $$ {u_t}= \hbox{div} ({\rho^\alpha}{| {\nabla u} |^{p(x) - 2}}\nabla u), $$ where $\rho (x) = \hbox{dist} (x,\partial \Omega )$ is the distance from the boundary, $p(x)\in C^{1 ...

Novel technique of vibration minimization during hard machining

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2024.
This research study examines the performance of electrorheological fluids, also referred to as smart fluids, which have gained popularity because they instantly alter when exposed to an external magnetic or electric field. When high voltage is applied, the ER fluid quickly changes from a viscous liquid to a semisolid state, which is reversible.

Electric field induced gelation in aqueous nanoclay suspensions

open access: yes, 2018
Aqueous colloidal Laponite clay suspensions transform spontaneously to a soft solid-like arrested state as its aging or waiting time increases. This article reports the rapid transformation of aqueous Laponite suspensions into soft solids due to the ...

Reversed Currents in Charged Liquid Bridges

open access: yes, 2017
The velocity profile in a water bridge is reanalyzed. Assuming hypothetically that the bulk charge has a radial distribution, a surface potential is formed that is analogous to the Zeta potential.

A multiplicity result for a nonlinear degenerate problem arising in the theory of electrorheological fluids

open access: yes, 2006
We study a Dirichlet boundary value problem associated to an anisotropic differential operator on a smooth bounded of $\Bbb R^N$. Our main result establishes the existence of at least two different non-negative solutions, provided a certain parameter ...
