RISA Magnetically Actuated Drug Delivery System for Robotic Endoscopic Capsules
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: There is an increasing need to incorporate an actively controlled drug delivery system (DDS) into the next generation of capsule endoscopy in order to treat diseases in the gastrointestinal tract in a noninvasive way. ...
A Nonlinearly Broadband Tuneable Energy Harvester
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A nonlinearly broadband tuneable energy harvesting device has been designed, fabricated, and tested based on the nonlinear dynamical response of a parametrically excited clamped–clamped beam carrying a central point mass ...
Effect of Manganese Dioxide Nanorods on the Thermoelectric Properties of Cement Composites
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The Seebeck coefficient of plain cement paste is usually less than 1 μV/°C. To enhance the thermoelectric performance of cement composites, a kind of MnO2 powder was synthesized and used as a thermoelectric component in ...
Improved Mathematical Model for Analysis of the Payne Effect of Magnetorheological Elastomers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Recently, magnetorheological elastomer–based vibration control devices have attracted increasing attention due to their field dependence of stiffness characteristics. It is crucial to develop a comprehensive model for ...
