Modeling and Characterization of a Self‐Sensing Soft Hydraulic Muscle

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article presents the self‐sensing soft hydraulic muscle (SSHM), a novel soft actuator capable of simultaneously sensing force and length without external sensors. A comprehensive model accurately predicts SSHM behavior, validated experimentally with minimal errors. Using propylene glycol enhances durability and reduces hysteresis.

Trauma‐informed bequeathed body donor meeting sessions: A guide for creating a supportive and humanistic anatomy laboratory

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomy educators are increasingly seeking approaches that honor the humanity of body donors while supporting learners through their first encounters in the gross anatomy lab. We describe a comprehensive donor meeting session, implemented in both dissection and prosection curricula at two North American medical schools, that prepares students ...
