An Ultrathin and Lightweight Soft Inflatable Actuator for Natural Tactile Sensory Feedback
A lightweight, ultrathin soft actuator mimics natural touch by delivering strong, multimodal haptic feedback through pressure and vibration. Tested on both able‐bodied individuals and amputees, it achieves high sensory precision in a compact form. Its simplicity, power, and adaptability hint at transformative applications in prosthetics, immersive ...

Micro-macro transition and simplified contact models for wet granular materials [PDF]
Wet granular materials in a quasi-static steady state shear flow have been studied with discrete particle simulations. Macroscopic quantities, consistent with the conservation laws of continuum theory, are obtained by time averaging and spatial coarse ...

Ultralight Soft Wearable Haptic Interface with Shear‐Normal‐Vibration Feedback
This study proposes soft wearable haptic interface using pneumatic actuators and origami pumps. This interface can generate multiple sensations such as touching, slipping, and vibrating. To show performance and wearability of this interface, virtual reality is connected with the interface, and user tests are conducted.

Influence of surface roughness on superhydrophobicity [PDF]
Superhydrophobic surfaces, with liquid contact angle theta greater than 150 degree, have important practical applications ranging from self-cleaning window glasses, paints, and fabrics to low-friction surfaces. Many biological surfaces, such as the lotus

A compact and flexible wearable force myography sensor based on optical fiber technology detects muscle activity through pressure‐induced light loss. The sensor offers high sensitivity for detecting subtle force and finger motion changes, along with excellent signal stability under dynamic and sweating conditions.

A charge‐domain ternary content‐addressable memory using one capacitor one nanoelectromechanical memory switch (1C‐1N TCAM) is proposed for energy‐efficient, high‐reliability computations. Integrated with the back‐end‐of‐line process, the 1C‐1N TCAM leverages the air gap capacitance to achieve a high capacitance ratio and ternary functionality.

On the Prospects for African Philosophy in Australia
ABSTRACT This paper grapples with the situation of people of African descent in Australia by working through the constitution of the body of academic philosophy in the country. It contends with the parochialism of the Australian philosophical community and the prospects for the cultivation of greater pluralism. Taking African philosophy as one possible

Improving translational studies: lessons from rare neuromuscular diseases [PDF]
Animal models play a key role in the development of novel treatments for human disease. This is particularly true for rare diseases – defined as disorders that affect less than 1 in 2000 people in the human population – for which, very often, there are ...
