A Michelson interferometric fiber-optic acoustic sensor based on a large-area gold
diaphragm is proposed in this paper. The Michelson interferometer (MI) based on 3× 3 …

Exploring the abundant resources in the ocean requires underwater acoustic detectors with
a high-sensitivity reception of low-frequency sound from greater distances and zero …

In this work we demonstrate a low-frequency acoustic sensor structure based on extrinsic
Fabry-Pérot interferometer (EFPI) cavity. The cavity is fabricated through micromachining …

With the development of wearable devices and the Internet of Things (IoT), there is a
growing demand for portable and comfortable human health monitoring devices. Because of …

Polyvinylidene Flouride (PVDF) is a film-type polymer that has been used as sensors and
actuators in various applications due to its mechanical toughness, flexibility, and low density …

In this work, low-velocity impact-induced damages such as matrix cracking and delamination
in composite laminates made of unidirectional carbon fiber/epoxy and woven carbon …

Identification of overweight vehicles has been increasingly important due to the need for
accurate information of actual live load, which is required for fatigue assessment of highway …

Impact force identification from structural dynamic responses at certain points on a
mechanical structure subjected to impact is a classical inverse problem in dynamics. There …

This chapter introduces the concept of thin films and coatings and then emphasized the
importance and wide applications of thin films and coatings for academic study and …

The cochlear implants are the most advanced technology for hearing aid impairments. It
consists of a microphone or sensor, speech processor, stimulator, and the electrodes. The …
