Lattice structures with triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS) built using flexible materials
are soft porous solids applicable in various fields, including biomedicine and tissue …

The rational geometric and topological organization of mechanical metamaterials allows for
unconventional responses to external loads. These materials exhibit a coupling between …

Soft piezoresistive wearable conductors have led to a paradigm shift in the monitoring of
human bodily motions. Cellular additively manufactured conductors are promising …

We present a novel design for materials that are reconfigurable by end-users. Conceptually,
we propose decomposing such reconfigurable materials into (1) a generic, complex material …

This paper introduces a new design concept for morphing aircraft skins which combines
three key design principles to create compliance-based morphing structures that are …

This paper describes the research into 3D printed capacitive shear stress sensors. The
context is the development of a technology that can potentially be used in shoe insoles. This …

Viscoelastic materials are used extensively in energy dissipation applications to mitigate
large lateral displacements and attenuate vibrations. One way of exploiting the capabilities …

Underactuated, modular and compliant hands and grippers are interesting solutions in
grasping and manipulation tasks due to their robustness, versatility, and adaptability to …

Additive manufacturing (AM) involves creating prototypes by depositing and solidifying
material by the placement of material in X, Y, and Z axes in a 3D space. The emergence of …

Automation in the food services industry is not as developed as in the automotive and
electrical industries. This may be because (1) the tasks involve high-speed operations in …
