In deep learning research, self-supervised (SSL) has received great attention, triggering interest within both the computer vision and remote sensing communities. While there been big success in vision, most of potential SSL domain Earth observation remains locked. this article, we provide an introduction to a review concepts latest developments for context sensing. Further, preliminary benchma...

This paper focuses on sustainable cementitious composites in terms of their conductivity, hydration and self-sensing properties, which are key features for smart city infrastructures. Smart cities have massive infrastructures that interconnected, transmitting data information health-monitoring performance optimization. In this regard, having them made building materials (concrete) also sufficie...

The tight coupling of shape transformation, stiffness tuning, and self-sensing that biological organisms exhibit has long served as inspiration for next-generation soft robots. However, most current robots rely on intrinsically materials actuation, separately embedded sensors sensing, have fixed once fabricated. Large gaps remain between these where multifunctionality is realized within an inte...

Recently, efforts have been made to manufacture self-sensing smart composites by integrating piezoelectric sensors with laminates. However, the interleaving of pressure sensors, such as polymeric films, dramatically reduces impact resistance hosting laminates, and consequently, delamination can occur. This study aimed fabricate a composite material embedding nanofibers poly(vinylidenefluoride-t...

Detection of ultrasmall masses such as proteins and pathogens has been made possible as a result of advancements in nanotechnology. Development of label-free and highly sensitive biosensors has enabled the transduction of molecular recognition into detectable physical quantities. Microcantilever (MC)-based systems have played a widespread role in developing such biosensors. One of the most impo...

We present a useful ammonia gas sensor based on chemically reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheets by self-assembly technique to create conductive networks between parallel Au electrodes. Negative graphene oxide (GO) sheets with large sizes (>10 μm) can be easily electrostatically attracted onto positive Au electrodes modified with cysteamine hydrochloride in aqueous solution. The assembled GO shee...
