Transducers Across Scales and Frequencies: A System‐Level Framework for Multiphysics Integration and Co‐Design

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...

3D Printing of Stretchable, Compressible and Conductive Porous Polyurethane for Soft Robotics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printable porous dopamine‐polyurethane acrylate elastomer results in conductive, stretchable, and compressible structures that can be metallized in situ through catechol‐mediated silver reduction. The resulting material function as both compliant soft robot with a and strain sensors without complex assemblies, enabling fully 3D‐printed soft ...

A Cut Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Coupled Bulk-Surface Problems

open access: yes, 2017
We develop a cut Discontinuous Galerkin method (cutDGM) for a diffusion-reaction equation in a bulk domain which is coupled to a corresponding equation on the boundary of the bulk domain. The bulk domain is embedded into a structured, unfitted background

A-posteriori analysis and adaptive algorithms for the quasicontinuum method in one dimension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The quasicontinuum (QC) method is a coarse-graining technique for reducing the complexity of atomistic simulations in a static and quasistatic setting. In this paper we give an a-posteriori error analysis for the quasi-continuum method in one dimension ...

AI‐Enhanced Vibrational Capsule for Minimally Invasive Detection of Abnormal Bowel Tissue

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A fully integrated vibration‐assisted capsule is presented for the minimally invasive detection of bowel lesions. The capsule incorporates a wireless sensor and an eccentric motor to probe tissue mechanics in situ. By coupling triaxial vibration signals with AI‐based classification and analytical modeling, the system enables early, non‐visual ...

An explicit dynamics framework suited to highly non-smooth interface behaviors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical, Computational and Applied Mechanics
Dynamic systems, and in particular mechanical structures, may be subjected to non-smooth loadings such as impacts or shocks. Moreover, their behavior itself may exhibit more or less non-smooth evolutions, as when fracture occurs.
