Affective CT‐touch attenuates cortical responses and subjective attention during temporal summation of second pain

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The study investigated the modulatory effects of affective touch on temporal summation of second pain (TSSP) in 32 romantic couples (N = 64). The design included a dyadic session (partner's CT‐optimal stroking vs. static touch) and an individual session (robotic CT‐touch vs. vibration control).

Compact Tubular Dielectric Elastomer Pump for Indoor Plants

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 25, July 5, 2026.
This study develops a mountable rolled dielectric elastomer pump (MRDEP) using silicone films and MWCNT‐based electrodes. The MRDEP is completely soft, silent in operation, and easily mounted on a piping system. We use dry stacking methods, fabricate a multilayer dielectric elastomer actuator (DEA), and a pre‐straining process in one direction before ...

Abstract DYNAMICS OF MULTIPACTING IN RECTANGULAR COUPLER WAVEGUIDES AND SUPPRESSION METHODS [PDF]

, 2008
Two methods can be used to suppress multipacting in a rectangular coupler waveguide. The slotted waveguide method calls for opening slots on the broad walls in the wave propagation direction that perturb the resonance and trap multipacting electrons. The

A Soft Robotic Device for Targeted Massage Therapy of Residual Limbs

Advanced Robotics Research, Volume 2, Issue 3, June 2026.
Residual limb edema after amputation can hinder recovery and delay prosthetic fitting. This study presents a soft‐robotic wearable device that delivers sequential compression through pneumatic McKibben actuators. By replicating the principles of manual lymphatic drainage, the device generates controlled mechanotherapeutic pressure patterns, providing a
