Analysis of medial deviation of center of pressure after initial heel contact in forefoot varus
Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2016 After initial heel contact, the rearfoot everts and causes medial deviation of the center of pressure (CoP). Although rearfoot angle in single-limb stance has been associated with forefoot varus (FV) ≥ 8°, medial CoP deviation has not.

Hydrogel‐Based 3D‐Printable Stretchable Pressure Sensor
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.We present a carbon‐black‐functionalized double‐network granular hydrogel (DNGH) pressure sensor capable of detecting pressures from 200 Pa, equivalent to a light finger touch, up to 500 kPa. The sensor exhibits signal drifts below 3.5% after 800 cycles and response times around 80 ms. Leveraging this broad sensing range, we 3D print this material into

Anti‐Slip Material‐Based Strategies and Approaches
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This review highlights the principle mechanisms of slipping at the microscale, linking contact mechanics with a friction behavior model for surface interfaces. Main strategies to develop anti‐slip properties to the surfaces are discussed alongside standardized testing approaches.

Advanced 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 ...
