Ambient Stable Triboelectric Nanogenerator Based on Conductive Filler Modified Silicone Rubber with Gas Barrier Encapsulation for Footstep Energy Conversion

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A humidity‐tolerant triboelectric nanogenerator is developed using conductive carbon black‐modified silicone rubber and a flame‐retardant gas barrier layer. The device efficiently harvests footstep energy while maintaining stable output under 30–90% RH and over 1 million cycles.

Feline‐Inspired Robot Enabled by Combustion‐Driven Actuators for Agile Motion and High‐Payload Obstacle Traversal

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by nature's competitive maneuvers, this study introduces a combustion‐driven soft actuator that powers a multi‐modal “Jump‐and‐Fly Catbot” (JFC). With millisecond response, high‐force output (over 70 times its weight) and precise control (error within 5%), the robot can jump, fly, hover, and escape from challenging environments, achieving ...

In‐Wheel Piezoelectric DC Power Generator With Zero Resistive Torque

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this paper, we present a wheel‐shaped direct‐current piezoelectric generator (DC‐PG) that fundamentally overcomes these constraints by producing phase‐stable DC electricity directly from rolling motion. By embedding this system into suitcase wheels, we demonstrated a fully integrated real‐time location tracking system powered solely by mechanical ...

Kinetics of Gas Emission from Heated Moulding Sands Together with the On-line Assessment of H2 and O2 Fractions - New Investigation Method

open access: yesArchives of Foundry Engineering, 2016
The new investigation method of the kinetics of the gas emission from moulding sands used for moulds and cores is presented in this paper. The gas evolution rate is presented not only as a function of heating time but also as a function of instantaneous ...

Improved Direct Ink Writing of Liquid Metal Foams via Liquid Additives

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
The ability to pattern liquid metal is useful for making soft electrical and thermal devices. Dispensing liquid metal from a nozzle naturally results in the formation of spheroidal droplets, making direct‐write printing challenging. Liquid metal foams containing pockets of air can extrude as filaments, albeit inconsistently.
