Research on SiC Whisker Prepared by H-PSO

open access: yesCailiao gongcheng, 2017
SiC whiskers were prepared on the matrix of graphite by using high hydrogenous silicone oil(PSO) as raw material. The effect of surface conditions of graphite and heating temperature on the growth of SiC whisker was mainly studied in this paper. The main

Bio-Inspired PVDF-Based, Mouse Whisker Mimicking, Tactile Sensor

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2016
The design and fabrication of a Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) based, mouse (or rodent) whisker mimicking, tactile sensor is presented. Unlike previous designs reported in the literature, this sensor mimics the mouse whisker not only mechanically, but it

WhiskEras: A New Algorithm for Accurate Whisker Tracking

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
Rodents engage in active touch using their facial whiskers: they explore their environment by making rapid back-and-forth movements. The fast nature of whisker movements, during which whiskers often cross each other, makes it notoriously difficult to ...

Conveyance of texture signals along a rat whisker [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Neuronal activities underlying a percept are constrained by the physics of sensory signals. In the tactile sense such constraints are frictional stick-slip events, occurring, amongst other vibrotactile features, when tactile sensors are in contact with ...

Species-specific whisker morphology affects tactile interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Bio-inspired robotic whisker touch sensors exist, although the shape of the whisker is often overlooked, despite it affecting whisker mechanics and resulting whisker movements.

Electrophysiological property and chemical sensitivity of primary afferent neurons that innervate rat whisker hair follicles

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2016
Whisker hair follicles are sensory organs that sense touch and perform tactile discrimination in animals, and they are sites where sensory impulses are initiated when whisker hairs touch an object.

Whisker encoding of mechanical events during active tactile exploration

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2012
Rats use their whiskers to extract a wealth of information about their immediate environment, such as the shape, position or texture of an object. The information is conveyed to mechanoreceptors located within the whisker follicle in the form of a ...

Rat Whisker Psychophysics [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2006
Like the digits of the human hand, the whiskers on the mystacial pad of rodents are used for fine tactile discriminations. During manual actions such as typing or piano playing, human fingers display fine and dexterous movements.

Optimization of heat treatment program and effect of heat treatment on microstructure and flexural strength of micro-nano-Li2Si2O5 whisker-reinforced glass-ceramics

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2023
Lithium disilicate (Li2Si2O5, referred as LD) glass ceramics with unique aesthetic properties are ideal dental restorative materials. However, their applications are limited due to the lower flexural strength than polycrystalline ceramics.
