Additively Manufactured Porous Ceramics as Tunable Dielectrics for Passive Temperature Sensing
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Porous ceramic lattices, 3D‐printed from a multicomponent oxide ink, are integrated with LC resonators for passive wireless temperature sensing. By tuning porosity, the dielectric properties and RF response are engineered to produce distinct resonant frequency shifts with temperature. The results establish a structure‐driven approach to customizing the

Changes in the angle-force curve of human elbow flexors following eccentric and isometric exercise. [PDF]
, 2004 The aim of this study was to explore and compare the magnitude and time-course of the shift in the angle-force curves obtained from maximal voluntary contractions of the elbow flexors, both before and 4 consecutive days after eccentric and isometric ...

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A codesign multiobjective optimization framework was developed to enhance the morphology and controller of a snake‐like robot driven by artificial muscles. It improved planar locomotion, agility, and power efficiency. The approach optimized link geometry and controller gains, revealing that shorter muscles near joints and longer linkages maximize ...

The influence of contraction duration in muscle energy technique applied to the atlanto-axial joint [PDF]
, 2004 Background: Muscle Energy Technique (MET) has been advocated for the treatment of restricted range of motion in the upper neck. There is little evidence, however, to support the effectiveness of MET to increase motion in the cervical spine, or determine ...

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.
