A Robotic Testing Platform for Pipelined Discovery of Resilient Dielectric Elastomer Actuators
This work introduces a robotic testing platform enabling high‐throughput, multi‐parameter lifetime mapping of linear dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs). By integrating programmable high‐voltage control and automated electromechanical measurements, the system identifies material and operating conditions that double actuator lifetime.

Investigation of frictional behaviour in incremental sheet forming of grade one titanium sheet [PDF]
Incremental Sheet Forming (ISF) is a flexible sheet forming process. Its interfacial friction between the ISF tool and the blank sheet has a significant effect to the forming forces, deformation, fracture, and surface finish.

Heat‐to‐Electricity Conversion Using Barium Strontium Titanate Multilayer Capacitors
Lead‐free barium strontium titanate multilayer capacitors convert waste heat into electricity via the Olsen electro‐thermodynamic cycle. These capacitors achieve an energy density of 3.7 J cm−3, comparable to the performance of lead‐based ceramics. Their high dielectric strength and broad operating temperature window below 100°C make them practical for

Study of Sphere NC Sheet Metal Incremental Forming
The principle of NC incremental sheet metal forming as well as the process planning, experiment of sphere forming are presented. Because the deformation of sheet metal only occurs around the tool head and the deformed region is subjected to shear ...

Origami has inspired numerous soft deployable mechanisms for safe human‐robot interaction, while its intrinsic kinematic instability at arbitrary configurations limited their practical robotic application. This work presents a 3D printed meter‐scale origami robotic actuator capable of load‐bearing deformation through creaseline stiffness modulation.

Inverse Design of Pre‐Strain via a Predictive Electromechanical Model for Enhanced Strain Sensing
An analytical electromechanical model rooted in microcrack evolution mechanics is globally calibrated from only eight pre‐strain datasets, enabling prediction of the complete sensing response at untested pre‐strain values within the calibrated design space (R2 > 0.99).
