Adaptive Self-Sealing Suction-Based Soft Robotic Gripper.

Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany)
While suction cups prevail as common gripping tools for a wide range of real-world parts and surfaces, they often fail to seal the contact interface when engaging with irregular shapes and textured surfaces. In this work, the authors propose a suctio...

A New Tactile Transfer Cell Using Magnetorheological Materials for Robot-Assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
This paper proposes a new type of tactile transfer cell which can be effectively applied to robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RMIS). The proposed tactile device is manufactured from two smart materials, a magnetorheological fluid (MRF) and a...

An insight into predictive parameters of tablet capping by machine learning and multivariate tools.

International journal of pharmaceutics
Capping is the frequently observed mechanical defect in tablets arising from the sub-optimal selection of the formulation composition and their robustness of response toward process parameters. Hence, overcoming capping propensity based on the unders...

Data-smart machine learning methods for predicting composition-dependent Young's modulus of pharmaceutical compacts.

International journal of pharmaceutics
The ability to predict mechanical properties of compacted powder blends of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) and excipients solely from component properties can reduce the amount of 'trial-and-error' involved in formulation design. Machine Lear...

Cryostructuring of Polymeric Systems : Application of Deep Neural Networks for the Classification of Structural Features Peculiar to Macroporous Poly(vinyl alcohol) Cryogels Prepared without and with the Additives of Chaotropes or Kosmotropes.

Molecules (Basel, Switzerland)
Macroporous poly(vinyl alcohol) cryogels (PVACGs) are physical gels formed via cryogenic processing of polymer solutions. The properties of PVACGs depend on many factors: the characteristics and concentration of PVA, the absence or presence of foreig...

Machine learning-based design strategy for 3D printable bioink: elastic modulus and yield stress determine printability.

Biofabrication
Although three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting technology is rapidly developing, the design strategies for biocompatible 3D-printable bioinks remain a challenge. In this study, we developed a machine learning-based method to design 3D-printable bioink u...

Parametric investigation of the effects of load level on fatigue crack growth in trabecular bone based on artificial neural network computation.

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. Part H, Journal of engineering in medicine
This study reports the development of an artificial neural network computation model to predict the accumulation of crack density and crack length in cancellous bone under a cyclic load. The model was then applied to conduct a parametric investigatio...

Physics-guided machine learning for 3-D quantitative quasi-static elasticity imaging.

Physics in medicine and biology
We present a 3D extension of the Autoprogressive Method (AutoP) for quantitative quasi-static ultrasonic elastography (QUSE) based on sparse sampling of force-displacement measurements. Compared to current model-based inverse methods, our approach re...

Towards an ontology for soft robots: what is soft?

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
The advent of soft robotics represents a profound change in the forms robots will take in the future. However, this revolutionary change has already yielded such a diverse collection of robots that attempts at defining this group do not reflect many ...

Simulation of hyperelastic materials in real-time using deep learning.

Medical image analysis
The finite element method (FEM) is among the most commonly used numerical methods for solving engineering problems. Due to its computational cost, various ideas have been introduced to reduce computation times, such as domain decomposition, parallel ...
