Advances in Safe, Flexible, and Stretchable Batteries for Wearable Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Unlike previous reviews centered on component‐based deformability, this work highlights safety‐driven design strategies for flexible and stretchable batteries. By integrating material‐level engineering, geometry‐controlled structures, biocompatibility, and self‐protection mechanisms, it establishes a unified framework that connects mechanical ...

The wear and rolling contact fatigue behaviour of AAR Class C wheel and R350 HT rail using a twin-disc tribometer under dry conditions [PDF]

MATEC Web of Conferences
The wear and rolling contact fatigue (RCF) behaviour of AAR Class C wheels and R350 HT rail was investigated under dry testing conditions. The RCF crack morphology, length and depth were of particular interest and, therefore were investigated using the ...

Influence of pre-existing martensite on the wear resistance of metastable austenitic stainless steels [PDF]

, 2016
The effect of pre-existing martensite on the sliding wear behavior of a commercial metastable austenitic stainless steel was investigated. Two different steel conditions were considered: annealed (with a fully austenitic microstructure) and cold rolled ...

Sliding Contact Fatigue Damage of Metallic Implants in a Simulated Body Fluid Environment

Lubricants
At the modular interface of the joint implants, repeated contact stresses in a corrosive synovial environment cause surface degradation that worsens over time. The lubricating mechanisms at the joints are altered by the deteriorated synovial fluid by the

Unilateral Ankle‐Foot Exoneuromusculoskeleton with Balance‐Sensing Feedback for Self‐Help Telerehabilitation after Stroke

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study introduces a hybrid robot that integrates mechanical assistance by musculoskeletons (i.e., soft pneumatic muscle with rigid exoskeletal extensions), neuromuscular electrical stimulation, and vibrotactile feedback in a lightweight wearable mechatronic complex applicable to the paretic ankle–foot poststroke for gait restoration. The system can

Corrosion-Mechanical Fatigue: the Problems of Forecasting. Part 3. Mechanisms of Corrosion-Mechanical Fatigue

Механика машин, механизмов и материалов
Corrosion is one of the main electrochemical processes that damage metal materials. The combination of cyclic stresses and a corrosive environment causes wear-fatigue damage, called corrosion-mechanical fatigue.

Piezoresistivity Enhancement by Graphite Flake Alignment in Thin Composite Films for Dielectric Elastomer Switches

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article presents dielectric elastomer switch (DES) materials, based on composite thin films. Alignment of graphite flakes due to their physical confinement within the thin films lead to much stronger piezoresistive responses than bulk composites, while their durability exceeds that of conventional liquid‐based DES materials.
