Flight-by-feel is an emerging approach to flight control that uses distributed arrays of
pressure, strain, and flow sensors to guide aircraft. Among these, hair-type flow sensors …

Inspired by the lateral line system of fish, an artificial lateral line system based on bionic hair
sensor with resonant readout is presented in this paper. An artificial lateral line system …

MEMS micro-hydraulic structures for amplification of force or deflection are introduced.
These structures are integrated with capacitances to form electrostatic micro-hydraulic …

Coronary artery disease is a leading cause of mortality in the US and percutaneous
coronary intervention with stent placement is a common treatment. Stents often fail through …

This paper presents a hierarchical planning architecture that generates vehicle trajectories
that adapt to uncertain, spatially-varying disturbance forces toward enhanced tracking …

In nature, hair typically exists in large-scale arrays, offering improved sensitivity and dynamic
range. In this paper, we present a new high aspect-ratio (HAR) hair biomimetic …

This paper presents the analysis of the capacitive based flow sensor using computational
fluid dynamic (CFD) and mathematical equation approach. The CFD simulations for different …
