The piezoelectric actuator is a kind of actuation device that acts through the inverse piezoelectric effect. Due to advantages of high precision, low power consumption, compact size, and flexible structure design, they have a wide range of applicatio...
The teaching of motion activities in rehabilitation, sports, and professional work has great social significance. However, the automatic teaching of these activities, particularly those involving fast motions, requires the use of an adaptive system t...
Diabetes, a metabolic disorder due to high blood glycemic index in the human body. The glycemic index varies in the human of improper diet and eating pattern such as junk foods, variation in the quantity of food, swallowing of food without chewing an...
A micro/nanomotor (MNM), as miniaturized machinery, can potentially bridge the application gap between the traditional macroscale motor and the molecular motor to manipulate materials at the cellular scale. The fascinating biomedical potential applic...
The lateral line system (LLS) is a mechanoreceptive organ system with which fish and aquatic amphibians can effectively sense the surrounding flow field. The reverse Kármán vortex street (KVS), known to be a typical thrust-producing wake, is commonly...
