Periodic arrays of shunted piezoelectric patches are employed to control the propagation of elastic waves in phononic beams. Each piezo-patch is connected to a single resistance-inductance-negative ...

Figure 3 - Assembly of multilayer piezoelectric actuator in parallel a) diagram; b) assembly with adhesive and silicon isolation layer. To minimize such possible problems and in an experimental setup ...

In addition to RF filters, piezoelectric thin films are used for many other components in microelectronics, whether as sensors, actuators or tiny energy converters.

An analog joystick project that uses the smartphone as a steering wheel or aircraft munck by using the accelerometer as the left analog stick. It contains 12 joystick model templates, the triggers are ...

Abstract: Wireless motion and large capacity are two important characteristics for practical applications of the miniature robots, and become more challenging as the decrease of the robot size. Here, ...

Wound healing of the oral mucosa is an urgent problem in modern dental surgical practice. This research article presents and compares the findings of the investigations of the structural, ...

Objectives To examine the joint associations of accelerometer-measured physical activity and sedentary time with all-cause mortality. Methods We conducted a harmonised meta-analysis including nine ...

Conclusions Accelerometer data collected in PA surveillance systems may not provide estimates that are generalisable to the target population. Accelerometer-based estimates have adequate reliability ...
