Vibration energy absorption in the whole-body system of a tractor operator

Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2014
Many people are exposed to whole-body vibration (WBV) in their occupational lives, especially drivers of vehicles such as tractor and trucks. The main categories of effects from WBV are perception degraded comfort interference with activities-impaired ...

Large‐Scale Determination of Frontier Orbital Energies of Disordered Small‐Molecule Organic Semiconductors Using Exciplex Emission Spectra

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurately knowing the frontier orbital energies of the structurally disordered small‐molecule organic semiconductors that are used in optoelectronic devices such as organic light‐emitting diodes is required to rationally improve their performance. Here, we show that these energies can be deduced with a large accuracy from the peak energies of

Rational Tuning of Hygroscopic Oscillation of Stacked Nanoflake Assemblies for Continuous Ambient Energy Harvesting

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Stacked nanoflake assembly (SNA) membranes can oscillate autonomously, offering opportunities for soft actuation and energy harvesting. This work uncovers the physical mechanism behind the sustained oscillation of SNA membranes in gradient humidity and identifies three governing dimensionless parameters, enabling rational design for optimizing SNA ...

High‐Mobility Chalcogenophene‐Engineered Diketopyrrolopyrrole Mixed Ionic‐Electronic Conductors With Doping Tolerance for Low‐Power Organic Electrochemical Transistors

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Chalcogen substitution emerges as a powerful strategy for designing high‐performance OMIECs. In aliphatic–glycol side chain diketopyrrolopyrrole polymers, biselenophene incorporation promotes a planar, polarizable, and doping‐tolerant quinoidal framework, enabling PDPP‐4EG‐Se2 to combine high hole mobility, large µC*, enhanced operational stability ...
