Benchtop Fabrication and Integration of Laser‐Induced Graphene Strain Gauges and Stimulation Electrodes in Muscle on a Chip Devices

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 13, March 25, 2025.
Laser‐induced graphene (LIG) is patterned on polyimide films and then transferred into thin layers of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), resulting in flexible and stretchable conductive LIG‐PDMS constructs that are stable under repeated deformation and incubation in buffer. LIG‐PDMS is integrated into Muscle on a Chip devices and deployed as miniature strain

Balancing the Water-Carbon Trade-Off: Development of a Bi-Level Source-Grid-Load Synergistic Optimization Model for Multi-Regional Electric Power System

Electronics
This study introduces the Bi-Level Source-Grid-Load Synergistic Optimization (BL_SGLSO) model, which effectively balances the competing objectives of water conservation and carbon emission reduction in the power industry. The model aims to establish a clean and low-carbon electric power system by harmoniously reconciling these two critical goals ...

Ultrahigh Piezoelectricity in Truss‐Based Ferroelectric Ceramics Metamaterials

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 12, March 18, 2025.
By leveraging the unique combination of polarization direction and loading state, ultrahigh piezoelectricity is achieved through careful tuning of the relative density and scaling ratio in truss‐based ferroelectric metamaterials. This approach enables the simultaneous realization of extremely high piezoelectric constants and ultralow dielectric ...

Assessment of load of beam-balanced pumping units by electric motor power indicators

Записки Горного института, 2017
The results of experimental studies on the loading of beam-balanced pumping units (BP) of sucker rod- pumping equipment (SRPE) are presented. It is noted that the key factor that has the most significant effect causing the SRPE failure is the balance of the beam pumping unit, which determines the amount of specific energy consumption for the rise of ...

A Proton Selective Carbon Nitride Layer for High Durability Fuel Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 13, March 25, 2025.
A Langmuir‐based approach is used to engineer a centimetre‐scale monolayer film of tessellated 2D graphitic carbon nitride sheets (Polytriazine Imide (PTI)). Optimal pore geometry and functionalization result in a proton‐selective hydrophilic lattice. Integrating the PTI nanolayer at the PEM‐cathode interface of a fuel cell provides improved nanoscale ...
