Abstract: Operating deflection shapes (ODSs) are used for visualizing the vibration patterns of a structure. In this study, ODSs are applied to diagnose the mechanical condition of power transformer ...

Portland’s public camping ban is going into effect this weekend. According to Mayor Keith Wilson, Portland police will begin issuing citations and running warrant checks on people camping or living in ...

In this blog, we’ve collected more than 1,000 real-life examples of how organizations are embracing Microsoft’s proven AI capabilities to drive impact and shape today’s platform shift to AI. I’m sure ...

NiTi shape memory alloys (SMA) have garnered significant interest owing to their shape memory effect, superior corosion resistance, and biocompatibility. This paper reviewed the current research ...

Magnetic soft continuum robots have received interest in diverse fields, because of their active steering and remote control capabilities. However, a more challenging task is the development of ...

Abstract: Abstract—It is significant to optimize the efficiency and accuracy of operational modal analysis (OMA) in extreme operation. Modal parameters in thermal environments, especially complete ...

While nanoscale structural imaging of cells is now possible, a direct recording of chemical composition of these domains is lacking. Here we overcome this challenge by first analytically modeling the ...

We introduce a soft robot actuator composed of a pre-stressed elastomer film embedded with shape memory alloy (SMA) and a liquid metal (LM) curvature sensor. SMA-based actuators are commonly used as ...
