Inefficient emergent oscillations in intersecting driven many-particle flows

, 2005
Oscillatory flow patterns have been observed in many different driven many-particle systems. The conventional assumption is that the reason for emergent oscillations in opposing flows is an increased efficiency (throughput). In this contribution, however,

Transducers Across Scales and Frequencies: A System‐Level Framework for Multiphysics Integration and Co‐Design

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...

Passive Shape‐Adaptive Fluidic Interface for Enhanced Skin‐Sensor Coupling in Wearable Devices

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study presents a passive fluidic interface for wearable biosensors that adapts to static and dynamic body shape changes to maintain consistent skin contact. Flexible, fluid‐filled pouches redistribute pressure from high‐load areas to regions requiring improved contact, enhancing signal quality and comfort in a compact, low‐energy design for ...

Evaluating pedestrian behavior factors related to road safety using analytic hierarchy process and Kendall’s correlation in a fuzzy environment

Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives
Road safety is a function of multiple factors that affect roads, and these factors compromise road safety. To Evaluate the Pedestrian Behavior Criteria related to road safety, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) approach with Triangular Fuzzy Sets (TFS)
