In recent years, the field of microrobots has exploded, yielding many exciting new functions and applications, from object grasping and release to in vivo drug transport. Smart responsive materials have had a profound impact on the field of microrobo...

Due to the increasing demands of today’s society on visual quality and patient comfort, and due to the growing interest in the implantation of new and more complex intraocular lens (IOL) designs, determining the IOL position occupies an importa...

Flow separation can lead to increased resistance and vibration generation, which is a difficult problem that cannot be ignored in engineering. In this paper, we propose a method of controlling flow separation by adsorbing ferrofluid onto the surface...

Photovoltaic (PV) systems face challenges in achieving maximum energy extraction due to the non-linear nature of their current versus voltage (IxV) characteristics, which are influenced by temperature and solar irradiation. These factors lead to vari...

This study introduces the Failure Decision Function, a novel approach for evaluating the structural capacity of rectangular reinforced concrete columns under axial forces and moments, both uniaxial and biaxial. The method simplifies existing practice...

Diminishing fossil fuels, the continually increasing demand for energy due to rapid urbanization, pollution caused by the increased generation of electricity using fossil fuels, the consequent environmental effect, and concerns about man-made global...

This study aims to investigate the thermomechanical properties of vanadium dioxide (VO2) thin films. A VO2 thin film was simultaneously deposited on B270 and H-K9L glass substrates by electron-beam evaporation with ion-assisted deposition. Based on o...

In just a few short years, the additive manufacturing (AM) technology known as 3D printing has experienced intense growth from a niche technology to a disruptive innovation that has captured the imagination of mainstream manufacturers and hobbyists a...

The 2017–2024 period has been prolific in the area of the algorithms for deep-based survival analysis. We have searched the answers to the following three questions. (1) Is there a new “gold standard” already in clinical data analys...

This article presents an original research methodology that combines insights from patents and academic research, offering a unique perspective on energy recovery technologies for trucks equipped with refrigeration units. The purpose of the study is...
