Biofidelic child head FE model to simulate real world trauma

Biomechanics of human head has been widely studied since several decades. At a mechanical level, the use of engineering allowed investigating injury mechanisms developing numerical models of adult head. For children, the problem is more difficult and evaluating child injury mechanisms using data obtained from scaling adult injury criteria does not account for differences in morphology and structure between adults and children. During growth, child head undergoes different modifications in morphology and structure. The present paper compares the anthropometry and numerical simulations of a child head model based on medical CT scans to a child head model developed by scaling an adult head model using the method proposed by Mertz [H.J. Mertz, A procedure for normalizing impact response data, SAE paper 840884, 1984]. These analysis point out significant differences showing that scaling down an adult head to obtain a child head does not appear relevant. Biofidelic and specific child geometry is needed to investigate child injury mechanisms.

Ultraprecise 3D Printed Graphene Aerogel Microlattices on Tape for Micro Sensors and E-Skin

3D printed graphene aerogels hold promise for flexible sensing fields due to their flexibility, low density, conductivity, and piezo-resistivity. However, low printing accuracy/fidelity and stochastic porous networks have hindered both sensing performance and device miniaturization. Here, printable graphene oxide (GO) inks are formulated through modulating oxygen functional groups, which allows printing of self-standing 3D graphene oxide aerogel microlattice (GOAL) with an ultra-high printing resolution of 70 µm. The reduced GOAL (RGOAL) is then stuck onto the adhesive tape as a facile and large-scale strategy to adapt their functionalities into target applications. Benefiting from the printing resolution of 70 µm, RGOAL tape shows better performance and data readability when used as micro sensors and robot e-skin. By adjusting the molecular structure of GO, the research realizes regulation of rheological properties of GO hydrogel and the 3D printing of lightweight and ultra-precision RGOAL, improves the sensing accuracy of graphene aerogel electronic devices and realizes the device miniaturization, expanding the application of graphene aerogel devices to a broader field such as micro robots, which is beyond the reach of previous reports.     

Effects of material combination on laser beam drilling of a metal foil using a cover plate

This research investigated the microdrilling characteristics of metal foils depending on the materials of the cover plates and metal foils in the cover plate-laser beam machining (c-LBM) process, which is a method to achieve better quality in metal foil machining with a given piece of equipment. Laser beam drilling using a nanosecond pulsed laser was carried out on 10-µm-thick stainless steel 304 (STS304), nickel, and copper foils with 100-µm-thick cover plates of each material. Consequently, STS304 was found to be an effective cover plate material for reducing the hole diameter and spatter deposition on metal foils. Compared to the results without using a cover plate, the average hole diameter and the area of spatter deposition decreased by up to 77% and 96%, respectively, by using the STS304 cover plate. Meanwhile, the thermal deformation of the STS304 and nickel foils was prevented by using a cover plate, while the copper foil was barely deformed even without a cover plate. Lastly, it was remarkable that the copper foil was drilled with approximately 67% lower pulse energy than the effective minimum pulse energy required to drill it by using the STS304 cover plate, resulting in a smaller hole with little spatter.
