Design and in-situ biomimetic fabrication of a high-density strain sensor array for parachute canopy fabric

iScience
Summary: In-situ monitoring of non-uniform strains in spacecraft parachute canopies is essential to ensure safe landings. Traditional wearable strain sensors struggle to meet high-resolution measurement requirements due to their low density.

CULTURAL AND SYMBOLIC INTERPRETATION OF SELECTED WAX PRINT DESIGNS ON GHANAIAN FABRICS

EPH - International Journal of Educational Research, 2019
Although Ghanaian textiles have undergone several phases of ascension and declining, they are still significant in the culture of the people. Fabrics in Ghana are not only chosen for their aesthetic outlook but rather have certain cultural and symbolic interpretations which are in line with their names.

Portable Molecularly Imprinted Polymer Sensor for Rapid Swab‐Based Detection of Norovirus

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work reports a rapid, portable smartphone‐based sensor capable of detecting four norovirus genotypes from swab samples within 15 min. Sensor selectivity was validated through evaluation against four common live viruses. The swab‐based sampling process enabled simple sample preparation combined with the compact detection system, supporting use of ...

Utilising inkjet printed paraffin wax for cell patterning applications

International Journal of Bioprinting
We describe a method to prepare patterned environments for eukaryotic cells by inkjet printing paraffin wax onto a substrate. This technique bypasses the requirement to create a master mould, typically required with the use of polydimethylsiloxane techniques and the printed structure could be immediately used to guide cell proliferation.

Tomographic Printing in a Chip: A Versatile Platform for Biomimetic 3D Organ‐on‐Chip

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A novel light‐based bioprinting approach, TVAM‐in‐a‐chip, enables rapid, contactless fabrication of biomimetic 3D organ‐on‐chip devices directly within preassembled microfluidic platforms. This strategy supports diverse materials, including cell‐laden resins, and eliminates post‐assembly steps.

Stability of Medicinal Nanoemulsions to Spaceflight: Insights From the StarMed Experiment

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Chitosan‐coated melatonin nanoemulsions (MN) recovered from a sounding rocket mission preserve droplet size and controlled‐release behavior, whereas uncoated nanoemulsions show ageing‐driven droplet growth and increased accessible drug fraction. Simple polymer coatings thus enhance the flight resilience of liquid space medicines under cumulative launch

Ink jet printing of alumina suspensions in liquid wax

, 2001
This paper reports on our recent achievements, using a hot-melt ink system, towards the fabrication of ceramic bodies by controlled droplet deposition. Key factors for jetting were identified and the rheological behaviour of fairly concentrated particulate suspensions was optimised to match the window of print-head operation. As a demonstrator, several
