Capillary‐Driven 3D Open Fluidic Networks for Versatile Continuous Flow Manipulation
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.The capillary‐driven 3D open fluidic networks (OFNs), composed of connected polyhedral frames, enable precise, programmable, and versatile manipulation of unary, binary, and multiple continuous flows in both spatial and temporal dimensions. OFNs represent a significant leap beyond conventional microfluidics, unlocking new possibilities for selective ...

Future of heart valve surgery [PDF]
European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery Supplements, 2004 In highly developed nations, valve surgery will be increasing applied in older people, with more co-morbidities and a higher incidence of concomitant coronary artery disease. Valve surgeons will be facing increased competition from the catheter-based procedures, both for valve repair and replacement; these are already applied clinically, and their ...

Self‐Spiking Linear Neuromorphic Soft Pressure Sensor for Underwater Sensing Applications
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This study presents a novel design of a neuromorphic pressure sensor that can generate self‐spiking symmetric signals with direct event‐based encoding through the integration of magnetic spheres and alternating coil circuits. The key advantages of this work include high linearity up to 200 kPa (R2 = 0.997), self‐spiking behavior for simplified signal ...
