Abstract Devices with variable stiffness are drawing more and more attention with the growing interests of human-robot interaction, wearable robotics, rehabilitation robotics, etc. In this paper, the authors report on th...

The fabrication of novel bioelectrodes using electrospun nanofibers and a prototype for a sustainable triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) is explored in this study. Poly(lactic acid-caprolactone) (PLCL) was electrospun as...

IntroductionOsteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint disease characterized by progressive biomechanical deterioration of cartilage tissue. This study aims to develop an explainable ensemble machine learning model capable of...

Abstract Soft electronic devices require durability to endure their inherent exposure to diverse mechanical deformations, including scratches, punctures, and repeated bending. Without intrinsic damage recovery mechanisms...

ABSTRACT Invoking high‐performance bio‐based fibres (e.g., Bacterial cellulose) contributes to the sustainability and functionality of wearable electronic devices at the material level. However, the fabrication of se...

Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology enables the rapid manufacturing of complex prototypes and customized soft electronics. However, the integrated manufacturing of multilayer, multimaterial, and multifunctional so...

Background. Long QT Syndrome (LQTS) is a hereditary cardiac channelopathy that predisposes individuals to malignant arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. In athletes, physiological cardiac adaptations can mask or mimic L...

The implementation of compact fiber-coupled light sources and devices represents a highly sought through technological goal, in wearable technologies, point-of-care units, telecommunication, and even quantum technology. ...

Optical vortices (OVs) carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) have attracted considerable interest in the field of optics and photonics owing to their peculiar optical features and extra degree of freedom for carrying i...

Abstract The reflex arc is fundamental to the physiology of posture and robust locomotion. Mimicking biological reflexes in engineered systems has, therefore, high potential to improve robustness and learning performance...
