Investigation of ANN architecture for predicting the compressive strength of concrete containing GGBFS.

PloS one
An extensive simulation program is used in this study to discover the best ANN model for predicting the compressive strength of concrete containing Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS). To accomplish this purpose, an experimental database of ...

Smart surgical sutures using soft artificial muscles.

Scientific reports
Wound closure with surgical sutures is a critical challenge for flexible endoscopic surgeries. Substantial efforts have been introduced to develop functional and smart surgical sutures to either monitor wound conditions or ease the complexity of knot...

Optically Modulated HfS-Based Synapses for Artificial Vision Systems.

ACS applied materials & interfaces
The simulation of human brain neurons by synaptic devices could be an effective strategy to break through the notorious "von Neumann Bottleneck" and "Memory Wall". Herein, opto-electronic synapses based on layered hafnium disulfide (HfS) transistors ...

Smart Bioinspired Actuators: Crawling, Linear, and Bending Motions through a Multilayer Design.

ACS applied materials & interfaces
To fulfill the insatiable demand for wearable technologies, ionic electroactive polymer actuators have been entrenched as promising candidates that can convert low-input-voltage energy into high mechanical throughput. However, a ubiquitous trilayer d...

Vital signal sensing and manipulation of a microscale organ with a multifunctional soft gripper.
