3D Printing of Highly Dense and Translucent Zirconia Parts for Dental Applications: Effect of Filament Overlapping

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study formulated a 5Y‐PSZ zirconia paste for extrusion‐based additive manufacturing via direct ink writing, producing dense ceramic structures for dental applications. A colloidal approach with 47 vol% nanometric powder and tailored additives optimized rheology and printability.

DETECTING CHANGES IN COMFORT, PAIN, AND MOBILITY OVER CLINICAL MILESTONES FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH LOWER LIMB LOSS

open access: yesCanadian Prosthetics & Orthotics Journal
BACKGROUND: Functional mobility, comfort and the absence of pain are key goals of prosthetic treatment. Outcome measures (OMs) evaluate the impact of treatment and normative and minimal detectable change (MDC) values are key to interpreting these scores

Quantifying dynamic coupling and fit degeneration of transtibial prosthetics using 3D motion capture

open access: yes
Background: Assessing the fit and suitability of lower limb prosthetics is heavily reliant upon clinician observation and subjective feedback, often resulting in negative impacts on the comfort and quality of life of amputees.

Elastomers Combining Damping Efficiency With Rapid Recovery

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Double network granular elastomers (DNGEs) combine high energy dissipation under both cyclic loading and high impact with rapid shape recovery. 3D printing enables the production of complex, customizable structures with tailored performance. Recyclable DNGEs retain their properties over multiple recycling cycles.

Large‐Scale and Cost‐Effective Fabrication of Ultra‐Thin, Biodegradable Microelectrode Arrays and Pressure Sensors Using Laser Micromachining

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A mask‐free and cost‐effective UV‐pico‐second laser‐based microfabrication method is proposed to fabricate large‐area biodegradable microelectrode arrays and pressure sensors. These devices demonstrate low impedance, good conformability, excellent biocompatibility, and rapid degradation, providing a new route for next‐generation transient electronics ...

The prosthetic man

open access: yesComprehensive Psychiatry, 1970
Abstract The “prosthetic man” is now a reality of modern medical technology. Karel Capek's robot, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, and E. T. A. Hoffman's Olympia have their present-day counterparts in such patients as those with artificial heart valves, cardiac pacemakers and artificial kidneys.

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

open access: yesAdvanced 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 ...
