Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...

Active vibration control for underwater signature reduction of a navy ship [PDF]
, 2010 Dutch navy ships are designed and built to have a low underwater signature. For low frequencies however, tonal vibrations of a gearbox can occur, which might lead to increased acoustic signatures. These vibrations are hard to reduce by passive means.

Pump-controlled hydraulic circuits for single-rod actuators: New designs and performance evaluation
, 2020 This thesis investigates the challenges in designing pump-controlled single-rod actuators and proposes new solutions for them. Three different concepts to overcome the reported performance problems are proposed. By applying the new concepts, eight different new designs are introduced, among which, five are experimentally evaluated.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Elephant‐skin‐inspired crack networks are programmed in porous diatomaceous earth (DE)‐cement composites using substrate‐guided, stress‐concentration induced fracture. The resulting crack lattices act as capillary conduits that redistribute water, while the porous matrix stores moisture.
