A Hands-Free Interface for Controlling Virtual Electric-Powered Wheelchairs
(
SAGE publications
, 2016 , Article)
This paper focuses on how to provide mobility to people with motor impairments with the integration of robotics and wearable computing systems. The burden of learning to control powered mobility devices should not fall ...
Investigation of the effect of Al-8B master alloy and strain-induced melt activation process on dry sliding wear behavior of an Al–Zn–Mg–Cu alloy
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Abstract This study was undertaken to investigate the influence of Al–8B master alloy and modified strain-induced melt activation process on the structural characteristics and dry sliding wear behavior of Al–12Zn–3Mg–2.5Cu ...
Numerical and experimental investigation on corrugation geometry for metallic tubes under lateral loading
(
Trans Tech Publications Ltd
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Energy absorption devices are being used to protect structures from severe damages and reduce injury to occupants during accidents. The integrated characteristics of crash absorption devices can be classified as high energy ...
Advances in osteobiologic materials for bone substitutes.
(
John Wiley and Sons
, 2018 , Article Review)
A significant challenge in the current orthopedics is the development of suitable osteobiologic materials that can replace the conventional allografts, autografts, and xenografts and thereby serve as implant materials as ...
Crushing behavior of hybrid hexagonal/octagonal cellular composite system: All made of carbon fiber reinforced epoxy
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Cellular carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) composites, either unfilled or filled with foam, may be of interest for energy absorption application due to their improved crashworthiness. In the current paper, new ...
Modelling of the flow behaviour of wrought aluminium alloys at elevated temperatures by a new constitutive equation
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
The hot working behaviour of an Al–0.7%Mg–0.4%Si (wt.%) aluminium alloy has been investigated by torsion testing in the 450–575°C temperature range. The behaviour of the alloy, in terms of equivalent stress vs equivalent ...
Graphene Oxide Loaded Hydrogel for Enhanced Wound Healing in Diabetic Patients
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Chronic wound or slow healing of a wound is one of the serious complications in diabetic patients. The decrease in the proliferation and migration of cells such as keratinocytes and fibroblasts is the major reason for the ...
Resistive room temperature LPG sensor based on a graphene/CdO nanocomposite
(
Springer-Verlag Wien
, 2019 , Article)
The authors decribe an ultra-sensitive, room temperature, flexible transparent LPG sensor based on the use of a CdO/graphene nanocomposite. The graphene prevents the accumulation of CdO, enhances the surface area, and acts ...
A Method for 3-D Printing Patient-Specific Prosthetic Arms with High Accuracy Shape and Size
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
Limb amputation creates serious emotional and functional damage to the one who lost a limb. For some upper limb prosthesis users, comfort and appearance are among the desired features. The objective of this paper is to ...
Characteristics of Intermetallic Compounds in Dissimilar Friction Stir Welding: A Review
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2019 , Article Review)
In the present paper, mechanical and metallurgical characteristics of different dissimilar weldments fabricated by friction stir welding were investigated. Existence of lamellar composite structure within the stir zone in ...
