Figure 1b presents an enlarged view of the UTE-skin platform for multiple-point tactile sensing in the form of a 16-channel sensing patch. The manufacturing method, dimensions, and spacing were identical for each node. Each TENG sensing unit was operated in single- electrode mode46. Notably,...
The skin, the largest organ of the human body, possesses many attractive attributes, including flexibility, stretchability, and the ability to self-heal after injury1,2,3,4. It serves as a fundamental interface to communicate human emotion and as a key receptor to external stimuli including touc...
Skin: Including ears, hooves, and horns The important principle is to determine the vital signs before handling and examining other body systems, which may distort the vital signs. The sequence that follows taking the vital signs can vary, based on individual circumstances; the urgency of the ca...
So also is collagen, the fibrous, elastic material that makes up much of the body’s skin, bones, tendons, and ligaments. Proteins also perform numerous functional roles in the body. Particularly important are cellular proteins called enzymes, which catalyze the chemical reactions necessary for ...
Because macroinvertebrates are nonmigratory, spending their entire lives in a small area, they often show the effects of habitat alteration. As a result, they are good indicators of environmental health, particularly that of streams and other waterways. They also can be sampled and identified with...
Then, the solid skin grew inward and upward due to the rapid extraction of the initial superheat from the cold mold wall. However, it was noted that the solid shell heights next to the mold wall increased with the increase of filling rate. This could be due to the larger liquid level ...
A method and apparatus for producing bulk single crystals of AlN having low dislocation densities of about 10,000 cm−2 or less includes a crystal growth enclosure with Al and N2 source material therein, capable of forming bulk crystals. The apparatus maintains the N2 partial pressure at greate...
My father went on to marry a woman he had fallen in love with while trying to avoid my mother’s bitter tirades on his failures, the endless enlarged silences between them, and the intense fracture of their marriage. My stepmother (this was a term my mother hated; she would have...
The skin was removed from this TS8 embryo to reveal white, yolk-filled PGCs in the posterior part of the dorsal mesentery (arrow). The inset shows an enlargement of this region. plasm islands in living zygotes using the fluorescent lipophilic dye DiOC6(3) [21,36]. When E. coqui ...
