Abstract: The “island-bridge” mesh structure is widely adopted for flexible epidermal electronics to simultaneously achieve the electronic functions and mechanical flexibility. Mechanical intuition tells that the small size of the ...

Abstract: Each year, more than 20% of electricity generated in the United States is consumed for meeting the thermal demands (e.g., space cooling, space heating, and water heating) in residential and commercial buildings. Integrating ...

Abstract: Stray current causes undesired material dissolution in micro-electrochemical machining (micro-ECM). The reduction of stray corrosion, caused by stray current, continues to be a major challenge for accuracy improvement. To ...

Abstract: In the United States, building sector is responsible for around 40% of total energy consumption and contributes about 40% of carbon emissions since 2012. Within the past several years, various optimization models and control ...

Abstract: Most of the resistive-type stretchable strain sensors exhibit large sensing ranges and high sensitivity but suboptimal repeatability and linearity because of the contact-resistance mechanism. To achieve high repeatability ...
