A Survey on Deployment Algorithms in Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks

International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks, 2013
Node deployment is one of the fundamental tasks for underwater acoustic sensor networks (UASNs) where the deployment strategy supports many fundamental network services, such as network topology control, routing, and boundary detection. Due to the complex deployment environment in three-dimensional (3D) space and unique characteristics of underwater ...

Harnessing cracks in metal films: Design strategies for stretchable conductors

InfoMat, EarlyView.
In stretchable electronics, metal film‐based components function either as strain‐insensitive interconnects/electrodes or as strain‐sensitive sensors, both of which are governed by crack‐induced electromechanical responses, yet these two roles have often been discussed separately in previous reviews.
