Electrohydraulic Folding Ring Actuators for Radially Contracting Applications
This work presents an Electrohydraulic Folding Ring Actuator that combines high‐performance electrohydraulic actuation with origami‐inspired folding geometry to achieve constricting radial actuation. This integration yields significant inner lumen constriction, alongside a gripping force capable of holding objects exceeding four times the actuator's ...

A Review of Failure Modes and Safety Strategies of Lithium‐Ion Batteries from Materials to Systems
A cascade‐aware framework is presented for lithium‐ion battery safety, linking thermal runaway initiation, acceleration, runaway reaction, and propagation with material‐, cell/pack‐, and system‐level interventions. By integrating failure mechanisms, quantitative safety indicators, and staged interception strategies, this review highlights how safer ...

Development of a pulatile VAD having a valve mimicking aortic valve [PDF]
拍動流を生成する左心補助人工心臓(LVAD)の開発を目的として,振動型ポンプに着目した.ここで,従来のポンプは逆止弁にJellyfish弁を用いてきたが,血液が弁を通過する際の剪断によって溶血の危険性が示唆された.そこで本研究では,大動脈弁を模擬した構造の逆止弁を用いることを提案し,ポンプシステムの構築およびポンプ特性の計測を行った.これを用いて送液実験を行った結果,本弁はjellyfish弁より高いポンプ性能を示した.しかし,ポンプの加振周波数によってP ...

A Smart Fluid‐Hydraulic System Based on MRF Valve Control and Its Application in Flexible Grasping
This study introduces a smart fluid hydraulic system using MRF valve control for flexible gripping. An MRF‐MSV with an integrated excitation coil and micro‐textured damping channels is designed and validated; micro‐texturing increases hydraulic resistance. Coupled with a soft actuator, the MRF‐MSV enables dynamic bending and grasping.
