An Integrated Fabric‐Pneumatic Soft Sensing System for Multi‐Site Muscle Activity Decoding

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Fabric‐pneumatic chambers convert muscle deformation into pressure signals without electronics at the body‐contact sensing interface. A unified processing pipeline enables static posture classification, continuous elbow‐angle estimation, forearm gesture recognition, and knee‐movement detection across three anatomical sites.

Hybrid Granular–Elastomer Jamming With Confinement‐Mediated Stiffening

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A granular–elastomer hybrid jamming medium enables isotropic, repeatable stiffness modulation by exploiting vacuum‐induced confinement of an elastomeric network rather than particle friction. The actuator supports large 3D deformations (bending, folding, and twisting), retains programmed shapes when unjammed, and achieves an ~8× stiffness increase and ...

Reverse Haptic Alerting: Human‐Centered Intelligent Systems That Turn Chemical and Biomedical Signals Into Felt Cues

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Wearable sensors usually warn through sight or sound, channels that become unreliable under protective equipment or in noise. Reverse haptic alerting inverts this flow: Stimuli‐responsive materials convert chemical and biological signals into cues felt through the skin, while a machine‐learned digital twin of tactile perception personalizes the body ...

Exploration of the body–garment relationship theory through the analysis of a sheath dress

Fashion and Textiles, 2020
The apparel industry is replete with assumptions regarding the body-garment relationship. Traditional anthropometry focuses on linear body measurements, which are inadequate to describe and classify the human body-form for apparel pattern development. To

Micro‐ and nanoplastics in gastrointestinal disorders: Mapping the translational gap between exposure, biomonitoring, and pathogenic mechanisms

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review highlights critical “translational gaps” in understanding micro‐ and nanoplastics impacts on gastrointestinal diseases, bridging exposure, detecting, and mechanistic toxicology. Abstract Micro‐ and nanoplastics (MNPs) have become pervasive environmental contaminants with increasing evidence linking them to adverse health outcomes.

Developing an instrument with simulations to measure 3D to 2D fit correction skills in fashion design

Fashion and Textiles
In fashion design education, students are taught how to prepare 2D patterns to create 3D garments through flat pattern making and draping courses. However, there is a lack of focus on garment fitting, and students are expected to have a natural intuition

From muscle fibres to muscle gears: how dynamic fascicle orientation and shape change impact skeletal muscle function

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Skeletal muscle architectural design strongly affects force‐generating capacity and excursion range, and its functional importance to animal and human movement is well founded. Traditionally, this ‘structure–function relation’ has been inferred from architecture measurements with muscles at rest (from anatomical dissections or medical imaging ...
