Multimodal Haptic Perception Through Synergistic Nanocomposite Sensor Arrays

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Multi‐modal fingertip haptics are advanced through a bioinspired &vertical‐via' electronic skin architecture. A confined PDMS/MWCNT/NiNP nanocomposite, sitting at the percolation threshold, enables tactile, thermal, and magnetic sensing. A unique via‐density gradient and dedicated &Un‐Touch' reference nodes provide robust spatial resolution and signal ...

Magnetic Fusion Basics

open access: yes, 2014
At the core of the sun and stars, light nuclei combine - or fuse - to create heavier nuclei. This process releases a significant quantity of energy and is the source of the heat and light that we receive.

Thermal transport induced by stochastic magnetic fields and turbulence during the thermal quench in tokamak plasmas

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
The timescale of thermal quench (TQ) remains a long-lasting issue in tokamak plasmas, which has not been fully understood yet. In this work, based on our previous thermal diffusion model and further considering the scattering caused by the electrostatic ...

3D Printed Omniphobic Slippery Liquid Infused Porous Surfaces for Low Surface Tension Repellency

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A 3D printing strategy fabricates omniphobic slippery liquid‐infused porous structures with lubricant reservoirs and interconnected microchannels. A post‐printing surface treatment modifies the porous surface to ensure compatibility with the infused fluorinated lubricant.

Tokamak plasma disruption precursor onset time study based on semi-supervised anomaly detection

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology
Plasma disruption in tokamak experiments is a challenging issue that causes damage to the device. Reliable prediction methods are needed, but the lack of full understanding of plasma disruption limits the effectiveness of physics-driven methods.

Magnetic Droplet Manipulation on Open Surfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Recent advances in the manipulation of magnetic droplets demonstrate various manipulations on open surfaces, including transport, splitting, merging, and force‐controlled motion, enabled by magnetic particles and external fields. ABSTRACT Manipulation of liquids on a smaller scale enables applications in various fields, particularly diagnostics and ...

Impurity transport driven by kinetic ballooning mode in the strong gradient pedestal of tokamak plasmas

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
The impurity transport driven by kinetic ballooning mode (KBM) is theoretically studied in the DIII-D H-mode strong gradient pedestal plasmas. From the electromagnetic gyrokinetic equation, including the correction of the strong radial electric field ...

Information Transmission Strategies for Self‐Organized Robotic Aggregation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how information transmission influences the neighbor‐based self‐organized aggregation of swarm robots. We focus specifically on local interactions regarding information transfer and categorize previous studies based on the functions of the information exchanged.

High-Energy Electron Confinement in a Magnetic Cusp Configuration

open access: yes, 2015
We report experimental results validating the concept that plasma confinement is enhanced in a magnetic cusp configuration when β (plasma pressure/magnetic field pressure) is of order unity.
