A Sleeve Alters the Pressure‐Stretch Curve of a Hyperelastic Balloon to Enable Pre‐Programmed Sequencing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
This article demonstrates that encasing a hyperelastic balloon in an inextensible sleeve greatly increases its burst pressure. This simple mechanical behavior can be used to produce an asymmetric inflation‐deflation sequence for coupled balloons with different thicknesses so they could serve as a soft robot's rear and front anchors when driven from a ...

ON THE DAMPING OF WATER HYDRAULIC CYLINDER DRIVES

open access: yesProceedings of the JFPS International Symposium on Fluid Power, 1999
The main aim when designing a controller for a demanding water hydraulic servo application is to find a good and practical method for increasing system damping. The low natural damping of water hydraulic cylinder drives has to be carefully considered also in open loop control applications.

A Hydrophilic Hollow Microneedle Platform for Sampling Interstitial Fluid and On‐Site Biomarker Detection

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study presents a superhydrophilic 3D‐printed hollow microneedle patch for continuous interstitial fluid (ISF) extraction and on‐patch biomarker sensing. Combining projection micro‐stereolithography and chemical vapor deposition, high‐resolution microneedles with enhanced wettability are fabricated, enabling passive ISF uptake without external ...
