Determination of Road Deflections from Traffic Induced Accelerations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Vertical elastic pavement deflections from moving vehicles provide valuable information for assessing the structural behaviour of a road under real loads. Various types of sensors can be installed in a road for deflection monitoring.

Adaptable Covalent Organic Framework‐Hydrogel Microneedles for Glucose‐Responsive Isoliquiritigenin Delivery in Diabetic Wound Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We develop a covalent organic framework‐loaded Traditional Chinese Medicine monomer nanodrug delivery system (ISL@bCOF) via boron‐oxygen bonds, a smart response to glucose for delivering AI‐driven isoliquiritigenin (ISL) targeting ZBP1. This dynamic release mechanism, combined with transdermal delivery technology via potent microneedles, can modulate ...

Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine

open access: yesAdvanced 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 ...

Detection of Asphalt Pavement Potholes and Cracks Based on the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Multispectral Imagery

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2018
Asphalt roads are the basic component of a land transportation system, and the quality of asphalt roads will decrease during the use stage because of the aging and deterioration of the road surface. In the end, some road pavement distresses may appear on

Research on the Prediction Model of the Friction Coefficient of Asphalt Pavement Based on Tire-Pavement Coupling

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2021
The correlations between pavement texture and tire pressure with the actual tire-road contact area were first investigated according to the tire-road static contact characteristics; on this basis, the influence mechanisms of speed and pavement texture on
