This paper focuses on the development of a thin normal-shear force sensor based on the
use of a supercapacitive sensing mechanism. The sensor has a quad structure with four …

A four degree of freedom thermally actuated MEMS microgripper is presented in this paper.
Each jaw of the microgripper has independent x and y degrees of freedom. These extra …

This paper presents a novel method to read a passive capacitive sensor in telemetry by
using inductive coupling. While classical inductive coupling approaches measure sensor …

A multi-sensor flexible strip is developed for a urethral catheter to measure distributed
pressure in a human urethra. The developed sensor strip has important clinical applications in …

Palatal implants have been used over the last two decades to eliminate headgear wear and
to establish stationary anchorage. In this case report, the stability of a palatal implant for …

Introduction: The application of a polymer coating to the labial enamel tooth surface before
bonding can help keep white spot lesions from forming. Previous studies evaluating the …

A number of diseases can lead to fluid accumulation and swelling in the lower leg. Early
detection of leg swelling can be used to effectively predict potential health risks and allows for …

This paper presents a novel Hall-effect-based magnetic sensor for handheld measurement
of either elasticity or tension in soft tissues. A theoretical model is developed for the …

Simulation of engineering problems plays a crucial role in understanding them well and
solving them efficiently. In geotechnical engineering, problems first need a very good …

Urinary incontinence can be due to neuromuscular or structural problems in either the bladder
or the urethra. Urodynamics is often used to analyze the patient-specific cause of urinary …
