Surface settlement modelling using neural network

open access: yes, 2022
Due to land shortage and rapid urbanization, most countries tap on underground resources to optimize land use. This allows valuable surface land to be used for livable uses and reduces the negative impact on city living.

Solid Particle‐Liquid Metal Mixtures for Robust High‐Current Interconnects in Stretchable Electronics and Soft Robotics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Metallic microparticles dispersed in liquid metal interconnects mitigate electromigration‐induced failure by reconfiguring internal current density distributions. These fillers facilitate the growth of a robust, protective gallium oxide shell at elevated temperatures, shifting the failure threshold toward a thermal limit.

Fully Printed Electrocaloric Heat Pump

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A system based on a flexible printed PEDOT:PSS/P(VDF‐TrFE‐CFE) electrocaloric membrane. The membrane periodically alternates between the cold and hot sides following its electrocaloric cycle and successfully generates a temperature difference. The entire fabrication process is industrially scalable, cost‐effective, and based on widely accessible ...

Information Transmission Strategies for Self‐Organized Robotic Aggregation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how information transmission influences the neighbor‐based self‐organized aggregation of swarm robots. We focus specifically on local interactions regarding information transfer and categorize previous studies based on the functions of the information exchanged.

Wall Deflection and Ground Surface Settlement due to Braced Deep Excavation in Soft-Soil Ground

open access: yesJournal of the Korean Society of Hazard Mitigation
An extensive database comprising more than 1,100 case histories of wall displacements and ground settlements due to deep excavations in soft soils created by Long, Moormann, and Wang et al. (2009) was analyzed. The applicability of the criteria for maximum lateral displacements and ground settlements using their database was analyzed.
