This study explores the damping effects of ram horn ridges on mechanical impacts resulting from ramming. We measured the amplitudes and frequencies of ridges along the axial (pitch) direction of the ridges of ram horns obtained from eight specimens a...
Soft grippers, a rapidly growing subfield of soft robotics, utilize compliant and flexible materials capable of conforming to various shapes. This feature enables them to exert gentle yet, if required, strong gripping forces. In this study, we elabor...
Decision-making systems allow artificial agents to adapt their behaviours, depending on the information they perceive from the environment and internal processes. Human beings possess unique decision-making capabilities, adapting to current situation...
In this systematic review, the authors aimed to investigate the state of knowledge on in vivo evaluations of chitosan and nanometric hydroxyapatite (nanohydroxyapatite, nHAp) scaffolds for bone-tissue regeneration. In March 2024, an electronic search...
Bioresponsive ceramics, a new concept in ceramic biomaterials, respond to biological molecules or environments, as exemplified by salts composed of calcium ions and phosphate esters (SCPEs). SCPEs have been shown to form apatite in simulated body flu...
Feature selection (FS) is a significant dimensionality reduction technique in machine learning and data mining that is adept at managing high-dimensional data efficiently and enhancing model performance. Metaheuristic algorithms have become one of th...
In order to further improve performance of the Slime Mould Algorithm, the Enhanced Multi-Strategy Slime Mould Algorithm (EMSMA) is proposed in this paper. There are three main modifications to SMA. Firstly, a leader covariance learning strategy is pr...
Within native ECM, Hyaluronan (HA) undergoes remarkable structural remodeling through its binding receptors and proteins called hyaladherins. Hyaladherins contain a group of tandem repeat sequences, such as LINK domains, BxB7 homologous sequences, or...
Studies on dental implant abutments’ geometric design and material selection offer significant innovations and results. These studies aim to improve the abutments’ functionality and aesthetic performance, minimize microcavities’ for...
Silk sericin (SS)–based hydrogels show promise for wound healing due to their biocompatibility, moisture regulation, and cell proliferation properties. However, there is still a need to develop green crosslinking methods to obtain non-toxic, ab...
