Extrusion processing of carbon tubes can be problematic due to their poor interfacial interactions with polymeric matrices. Surface chemical modification utilized create bonding sites form networks polymer chains. However, reactions resulting in intermolecular primary limit processability extrudate, since they cause unstable rheological behaviour, and thus decrease the stock holding time, which is determinative extrusion. This study presents a method for synthesis microtubes physically...
Soft robotics is a recent and rapidly growing field of research that encompasses emerging advances in functional materials, fabrication, modelling, performance control with important applications the manipulation fragile objects. The incorporation three-dimensional (3D) printing into fabrication soft robots facilitates customisation their functions by strategic placement materials locations may be inaccessible conventional manufacturing methods. Most current 3D-printed robots, however, are...
This article reviews soft pneumatic actuators (SPAs) that are manufactured entirely via additive manufacturing methods. These known as four-dimensional (4D)-printed SPAs and can generate bending motions in response to either pressurised or vacuum (negative pressure) air stimulus after fabrication. They characterised by geometrical material factors determine their motion trajectory, the force they exert on manipulated objects delicate applications such food handling non-invasive surgery....
Building on the recent progress of four-dimensional (4D) printing to produce dynamic structures, this study aimed bring technology next level by introducing control-based 4D develop adaptive 4D-printed systems with highly versatile multi-disciplinary applications, including medicine, in form assisted soft robots, smart textiles as wearable electronics and other industries such agriculture microfluidics. This introduced analysed an advanced manufacturing approach for developing...
Developing rationally designed dynamic hydrogels and polymers as inks for 3D printing is in the limelight today. They would enable us to precisely fabricate complex structures high resolutions modular platforms with smart functions (e.g., self-healing self-recovery), well tunable mechanical, chemical, biological properties. In this paper, we explore recent developments discuss their properties applications tissue engineering, biomedicine, soft robotics, sensors. The main scope of paper give...
Three-dimensional (3D)-printed parts are an essential subcategory of additive manufacturing with the recent proliferation research in this area. However, 3D-printed fabricated by different techniques differ terms microstructure and material properties. Catastrophic failures often occur due to unstable crack propagations therefore a study fracture behavior components is vital component engineering design. In paper, experimental tests numerical studies modes presented. A series experiments...
With increasing utilization of robots in daily tasks, especially biomedical and environmental monitoring applications, there would be demands for soft, biodegradable, or even edible actuators that provide more versatility than conventional rigid materials (e.g., metals plastics). Polyelectrolyte hydrogels produce mechanical motion response to electrical stimulus, making them good candidates implementation soft actuators. However, their fabrication process has so far hindered applicability a...
