Prosthetic valve replacement.

Acta medica portuguesa, 1980
PRÓTESES VALVULARES CARDÍACAS Parece extraordinário que após vinte anos de experiência de substituições valvulares este assunto ainda seja um dos que se discute nos congressos de Cirurgia Cardíaca. Sem dúvida isto deve-se ao facto de ainda se não ter encontrado o substituto valvular cardíaco ideal e, nos últimos anos, tem-se desenvolvido a tendência ...

Electroadhesion Suction Cups

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Electroadhesion (EA) Suction Cups are electrically operated soft grippers that can pick up a wide range of objects from the top. A soft membrane, driven by electrostatic forces, conforms to surfaces, creating a passive vacuum when lifted. EA suction cups eliminate bulky vacuum systems, offering a compact, efficient, and portable alternative for ...
