چکیده

Additive manufactured smart wearables are establishing an increasingly firm foothold within the monitoring of physical activities. A tiler was use case proposed by this study, which seeks to monitor changes in their typically kneeling work position with goal tracking behaviour and alleviating long-term damage due incorrect posture. This paper has described development process a conformal kneepad embedded sensing, obtained means interposing flexible tactile sensors between 3D printed elastomeric layers. Topology optimization is employed towards material reduction context tailoring design for differentiated loading study imposes. Considerations on inherent challenges overmolding geometries provided along design-to-fabrication description visits printing, post-processing scanning. The latter enables creation fully design, optimized perfect fit each individual wearing kneepad. topology validated numerically ability react different pressure stimuli tested robot arm, capable simulating contact angles load cases. By dedicated electronics, sensed information modulestreamed over WiFi images formed user-friendly terminal. concept ultimately serves as extended additive wearables, potential be autonomous feedback posture correction systems.

Conformal Deformation on Manifolds with Boundary

We consider natural conformal invariants arising from the Gauss-Bonnet formulas on manifolds with boundary, and study conformal deformation problems associated to them. The purpose of this paper is to study conformal deformation problems associated to conformal invariants on manifolds with boundary. From analysis point of view, the problem becomes a non-Dirichlet boundary value problems for ful...

Clinical application of 3D-printed-step-bolus in post-total-mastectomy electron conformal therapy

The 3D-printed boluses were used during the radiation therapy of the chest wall in six patients with breast cancer after modified radical mastectomy (MRM). We measured the in-vivo skin doses while both conventional and 3D-printed boluses were placed on the chest wall and compared the mean doses delivered to the ipsilateral lung and the heart. The homogeneity and conformity of the dose distribut...

3D Printed Bionic Ears

The ability to three-dimensionally interweave biological tissue with functional electronics could enable the creation of bionic organs possessing enhanced functionalities over their human counterparts. Conventional electronic devices are inherently two-dimensional, preventing seamless multidimensional integration with synthetic biology, as the processes and materials are very different. Here, w...
