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 ...

Due to the presence of strong hysteresis nonlinearity, achieving robust and precise control of piezoelectric actuators (PEAs) is highly challenging. In this article, a novel rate-amplitude-dependent ...

Piezoelectric sensors offer high sensitivity, reliability, and real-time data acquisition, making them crucial in environments where precision monitoring is essential. Among the various types, ...

Interfacial solar vapor generation holds promise for sustainable desalination yet is often constrained by low photothermal efficiency and slow evaporation kinetics. Here, we introduce a hybrid ...

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, ...

Summer Game Fest 2025 was a blockbuster affair, as usual, with host Geoff Keighley and pals taking the stage to announce a veritable smorgasbord of new video games – some previously announced, and ...

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

The June 2025 PlayStation State of Play kicked off with a trailer for Lumines Arise, a new game from the developers of Tetris Effect, Enhance Games. The trailer opened on a man walking through a ...
