This paper reports a strain sensor with synergistic conductive network, consisting of stable carbon nanotube dispersion (CNT) layer and brittle MXene layer by dip-coating and electrostatic self-assembly method, and breathable three-dimensional (3D) flexible substrate of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) fibrous membrane prepared through electrospinning technology.

However, the backward motion always generates for some piezoelectric actuators, which reduces the working efficiency. Bionic motions have already been employed in the field of piezoelectric actuators to realize better performance. By imitating the movement form of seals, seal type piezoelectric actuator is capable to realize large operating strokes easily. Nevertheless, the conventional seal type piezoelectric actuator has a complicated structure and control system, which limits further applications. Hence, an improved bionic piezoelectric actuator is proposed to realize a long motion stroke and eliminate backward movement with a simplified structure and control method in this study. The composition and motion principle of the designed actuator are discussed, and the performance is investigated with simulations and experiments. Results confirm that the presented actuator effectively realizes the linear movement that has a large working stroke stably without backward motion. The smallest stepping displacement ΔL is 0.2 μm under 1 Hz and 50 V. The largest motion speed is 900 μm/s with 900 Hz and 120 V. The largest vertical and horizontal load are 250 g and 12 g, respectively. This work shows that the improved bionic piezoelectric actuator is feasible for eliminating backward motion and has a great working ability.展开更多

文摘In this study,we present a unified sparsity-driven framework that significantly enhances motion deblurring performance by integrating two key components:a custom-designed dataset and a low-rank module(LRM).This framework leverages the inherent sparsity of per-pixel blur kernels to bolster both deblurring accuracy and model interpretability.Firstly,we propose an adaptive-basis decomposition-based deblurring(ADD)approach,which constructs a tailored training dataset to enhance the generalization capacity of the deblurring network.The ADD framework adaptively decomposes motion blur into sparse basis elements,effectively addressing the intricacies associated with non-uniform blurs.Secondly,an LRM is proposed to improve the interpretability of deblurring models as a plug-and-play module,primarily designed to identify and harness the intrinsic sparse features in sharp images.A series of ablation studies have been conducted to substantiate the synergistic advantages of combining the proposed ADD with the LRM for overall improvement in deblurring efficacy.Subsequently,we empirically demonstrate through rigorous experimentation that incorporating the LRM into an existing Uformer network leads to substantial enhancement in reconstruction performance.This integration yields a sparsity-guided low-rank network(SGLRN).Operating under the overarching principle of sparsity,SGLRN consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods across multiple standard deblurring benchmarks.Comprehensive experimental results,assessed through quantitative metrics and qualitative visual evaluations,provide compelling evidence of its effectiveness.The overall deblurring results are available at Google Drive.

文摘Piezoelectric actuators are widely utilized in positioning systems to realize nano-scale resolution. However, the backward motion always generates for some piezoelectric actuators, which reduces the working efficiency. Bionic motions have already been employed in the field of piezoelectric actuators to realize better performance. By imitating the movement form of seals, seal type piezoelectric actuator is capable to realize large operating strokes easily. Nevertheless, the conventional seal type piezoelectric actuator has a complicated structure and control system, which limits further applications. Hence, an improved bionic piezoelectric actuator is proposed to realize a long motion stroke and eliminate backward movement with a simplified structure and control method in this study. The composition and motion principle of the designed actuator are discussed, and the performance is investigated with simulations and experiments. Results confirm that the presented actuator effectively realizes the linear movement that has a large working stroke stably without backward motion. The smallest stepping displacement ΔL is 0.2 μm under 1 Hz and 50 V. The largest motion speed is 900 μm/s with 900 Hz and 120 V. The largest vertical and horizontal load are 250 g and 12 g, respectively. This work shows that the improved bionic piezoelectric actuator is feasible for eliminating backward motion and has a great working ability.

文摘This review summarizes the clinical applications and mechanisms of action of motion-style acupuncture(MSAT)in rehabilitation medicine.Patients are required to perform active or passive movements while the acupuncture needles are inserted.Owing to its effectiveness,MSAT is progressively applied in clinical settings,including musculoskeletal and neurological diseases.Acupuncture and exercise generate syner-gistic effects through interactive mechanisms.From the perspective of the Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)theory,needling with movement can trigger the propagation of the needling sensation,thereby enhancing its efficacy in dredging meridians and regulating qi-blood circulation.In modern medicine,these mechanisms include neural inhibition,ischemia/reperfusion,and fascial stimulation propagation.Although the clinical applications and mechanism research of MSAT in rehabilitation medicine have ad-vanced,the mechanisms of MSAT in treating various diseases and the scope of applicable diseases war-rant deeper exploration.This will provide novel therapeutic strategies for clinical applications,thereby advancing the integration and application of TCM therapies with exercise-based interventions.

文摘The study of capture mechanisms with high capture adaptability is the key to improving the efficiency of autonomous underwater vehicle(AUV)retrieval and release.This study aims to develop a capture mechanism for the launch and recovery of AUV and elucidate its kinematic characteristics.Initially,based on the principles of deployment and retraction for AUV capture movements,a design scheme for a novel foldable and deployable capture mechanism is proposed.Subsequently,a detailed analysis of the Degrees of Freedom(DoFs)for enveloping and grasping movements is conducted according to screw theory.Additionally,the structural design of the actuation units for the capture mechanism is thoroughly discussed.Motion screw topology diagram is utilized to construct the kinematic model.On this basis,kinematic simulation verification of the capture mechanism is performed.The theoretical analysis revealed that the DoF for enveloping and grasping movements are 6 and 2,respectively.By appropriately configuring the actuation mechanism,enveloping and grasping movements can be achieved with a single actuation.The displacement and velocity curves of the capture mechanism were smooth,with no interference occurring.Vibration test results validate the reliability of the capture mechanism.The research work provides a valuable reference for the development of novel capture equipment for AUVs.

文摘This article centers on The Call of the Wild,an English novel by American author Jack London,alongside two Chinese translations by Dajie Liu and Menglin Zhang,and Rongyue Liu.Seventy sentences containing motion events and their corresponding translations were randomly selected for analysis.The study focuses on the primary elements of motion events-manner,path,and ground-and examines their Chinese translations through the lens of Skopos theory.Skopos theory emphasizes whether translators can adopt appropriate translation strategies according to various contextual factors during the translation process.Compared to verb-framed languages,satellite-framed languages possess a richer vocabulary for manner verbs,express more detailed manner information,use more satellite words to indicate paths,and incorporate more background information.Verb-framed languages,by contrast,typically express manner information only when necessary and tend to include less background information.The analysis reveals that both Chinese translations embody the core principle of Skopos theory:translation strategies are determined by their purpose.To fulfill the novel’s translation objectives,the translators adeptly adjust their strategies for motion event components based on different contextual needs.It is noted that the Chinese translations do not fully retain the characteristics of English as a typical satellite-framed language.This observation aligns with Skopos theory’s purpose-oriented approach,which prioritizes translation goals over strict adherence to source text characteristics.

文摘Backswimmers exhibit a high degree of mobility in water,and their different motion patterns have important implications for the design of micro-biomimetic underwater robots.This paper used three-dimensional high-speed cameras to extract the key points on the hind legs.The hind leg motion laws and the deformation laws of the setae were obtained in four motion patterns:rapid forward,cruising,in-motion turning,and in-place turning.The motion laws of each joint on the hind leg are modeled using a Fourier series.A kinematic model of hind legs was established based on the DH method,and the motion characteristics of hind legs under different motion patterns were analyzed.This paper provides basic data and theoretical models for micro-biomimetic robots.

文摘Shape memory alloy(SMA)bars are currently preferred over elastomeric seismic isolators due to the elimination of degradation within effective damping and stiffness factors during the cyclic response of an isolation system.These bars could also be used to prevent the functionality of the isolator units from failing due to large deformations.This study aims to investigate the performance of a high damping rubber bearing(HDRB)isolator that is combined with two different types of SMA bars,i.e.,Nickel-Titanium(Ni-Ti)and Copper-Aluminum-Beryllium(Cu-Al-Be),subjected to near-fault ground motions that are characterized with forward directivity and fling step effects.To achieve this objective,a self-centering material with flag-shape,force-deformation hysteresis was utilized to simulate the behavior of SMA bars in OpenSees.A single degree of freedom(SDOF)system representing an isolated one-story shear building was developed to conduct nonlinear analysis under selected ground motions.The SMA bars were introduced as an X-shape within the model and were connected diagonally to the top and bottom of the isolator.Results showed that the HDRB system’s hysteretic response under near-fault ground accelerations experiences significant degradation,especially when near-fault motions involve the fling step effect.It was demonstrated that SMA bars effectively reduce large displacement observed in HDRB systems under near-fault earthquakes.Comparing the results of the base-isolated HDRB and SMA-HDRB subjected to selected ground motions demonstrated that maximum displacement was found to be significantly reduced by an average of 79%when SMA bars were used.Incorporating SMA bars with a larger diameter significantly improves the efficiency of SMA HDRB systems,and a reduction in maximum displacements is more pronounced for fling step,near-fault ground motions.

文摘Motion recognition refers to the intelligent recognition of human motion using data collected from wearable sensors,which exceedingly has gained significant interest from both academic and industrial fields.However,temporary-sudden activities caused by accidental behavior pose a major challenge to motion recognition and have been largely overlooked in existing works.To address this problem,the multi-dimensional time series of motion data is modeled as a Time-Frequency(TF)tensor,and the original challenge is transformed into a problem of outlier-corrupted tensor pattern recognition,where transient sudden activity data are considered as outliers.Since the TF tensor can capture the latent spatio-temporal correlations of the motion data,the tensor MPCA is used to derive the principal spatio-temporal pattern of the motion data.However,traditional MPCA uses the squared F-norm as the projection distance measure,which makes it sensitive to the presence of outlier motion data.Therefore,in the proposed outlier-robust MPCA scheme,the F-norm with the desirable geometric properties is used as the distance measure to simultaneously mitigate the interference of outlier motion data while preserving rotational invariance.Moreover,to reduce the complexity of outlier-robust motion recognition,we impose the proposed outlier-robust MPCA scheme on the traditional MPCANet which is a low-complexity deep learning network.The experimental results show that our proposed outlier-robust MPCANet can simultaneously improve motion recognition performance and reduce the complexity,especially in practical scenarios where the real-time data is corrupted by temporary-sudden activities.

文摘Microrobots powered by an external magnetic field could be used for sophisticated medical applications such as cell treatment,micromanipulation,and noninvasive surgery inside the body.Untethered microrobot applications can benefit from haptic technology and telecommunication,enabling telemedical micro-manipulation.Users can manipulate the microrobots with haptic feedback by interacting with the robot operating system remotely in such applications.Artificially created haptic forces based on wirelessly transmitted data and model-based guidance can aid human operators with haptic sensations while manipulating microrobots.The system presented here includes a haptic device and a magnetic tweezer system linked together using a network-based teleoperation method with motion models in fluids.The magnetic microrobots can be controlled remotely,and the haptic interactions with the remote environment can be felt in real time.A time-domain passivity controller is applied to overcome network delay and ensure stability of communication.This study develops and tests a motion model for microrobots and evaluates two image-based 3D tracking algorithms to improve tracking accuracy in various Newtonian fluids.Additionally,it demonstrates that microrobots can group together to transport multiple larger objects,move through microfluidic channels for detailed tasks,and use a novel method for disassembly,greatly expanding their range of use in microscale operations.Remote medical treatment in multiple locations,remote delivery of medication without the need for physical penetration of the skin,and remotely controlled cell manipulations are some of the possible uses of the proposed technology.
