In the modern world, soft robots are gaining importance with technological advances. Compared to rigid robots, their elasticity enables safer and more adaptable integration into various systems, making them suitable for wearable devices, biomedical enginee ...
The power degradation and failure of photovoltaic (PV) modules can be caused by changes in the mechanical properties of the polymeric components during the module lifetime. This paper introduces instrumented nanoindentation as a method to investigate the m ...
Perfect elasticity is not achievable in real-life situation, so spring stiffness is not perfectly constant. In this paper, we study the effect of modifying non-linear stiffness terms while keeping the nominal stiffness constant. We introduce three methods ...
In the exciting race to design and engineer biointegrated and body-like electronic systems, many efforts concentrate on the integration of hydrogels in electronic assemblies. The versatility of hydrogels chemistry combined with their tissue-mimicking prope ...
