| 1 | Soil Bulk Density Estimation Methods: A Review显示文摘Measurement of soil bulk density is important for understanding the physical, chemical, and biological properties of soil. Accurate and rapid soil bulk density measurement techniques play a significant role in agricultural experimental research. This review is a comprehensive summary of existing measurement methods and evaluates their advantages, disadvantages, potential sources of error,and directions for future development. These techniques can be broadly categorised as direct and indirect methods. Direct methods include core, clod, and excavation sampling, whereas indirect methods include the radiation and regression approaches. The core method is most widely used, but it is time consuming and difficult to use for sampling multiple soil depths. The size of the coring cylinder used, operator experience, sampling depth, and in-situ soil moisture content significantly affect its accuracy. The clod method is suitable for use with heavy clay soils, and its accuracy is dependent on equipment calibration, drying time, and operator experience, but the process is complicated and time consuming. Excavation techniques are most commonly used to evaluate the bulk density of forest soils, but have major limitations as they cannot be used in soils with large pores and their measurement accuracy is strongly influenced by soil texture and the type of analysis selected. The indirect methods appear to have greater accuracy than direct approaches, but have higher costs, are more complex, and require greater operator experience. One such approach uses gamma radiation, and its accuracy is strongly influenced by soil depth. Regression methods are economical as they can make indirect measurements, but these depend on good, quality data of soil texture and organic matter content and geographical and climatic properties. Also, like most of the other approaches, its accuracy decreases with sampling depth. | Ahmed Abed Gatea AL-SHAMMARY Abbas Z.KOUZANI Akif KAYNAK Sui Yang KHOO Michael NORTON Will GATES | 2018 | Pedosphere2018，28，4： | 5 |
| 2 | Topology-Optimized 4D Printing of a Soft Actuator显示文摘Soft robots and actuators are emerging devices providing more capabilities in the field of robotics.More flexibility and compliance attributing to soft functional materials used in the fabrication of these devices make them ideal for delivering delicate tasks in fragile environments,such as food and biomedical sectors.Yet,the intuitive nonlinearity of soft functional materials and their anisotropic actuation in compliant mechanisms constitute an existent challenge in improving their performance.Topology optimization(TO)along with four-dimensional(4D)printing is a powerful digital tool that can be used to obtain optimal internal architectures for the efficient performance of porous soft actuators.This paper employs TO analysis for achieving high bending deflection of a 3D printed polyelectrolyte actuator,which shows bending deformations in response to electrical stimuli in an electrolyte solution.The performance of the actuator is studied in terms of maximum bending and actuation rate compared with a solid,uniformly 3D printed and topology-optimized actuator.The experimental results proved the effectiveness of TO on achieving higher bending deformation and actuation rate against a uniformly 3D printed actuator. | Ali Zolfagharian Martin Denk Mahdi Bodaghi Abbas Z.Kouzani Akif Kaynak | 2020 | Acta Mechanica Solida Sinica2020，33，3： | 3 |
| 3 | 4D printing of soft orthoses for tremor suppression显示文摘Tremor is an involuntary and oscillatory movement disorder that makes daily activities difficult for affected patients. Hand tremor-suppression orthoses are noninvasive, wearable devices designed to mitigate tremors. Various studies have shown that these devices are effective, economical, and safe;however, they have drawbacks such as large weight, awkward shape, and rigid parts. This study investigates different types of tremor-suppression orthoses and discusses their efficiency, mechanism,benefits, and disadvantages. First, various orthoses(with passive, semi-active, and active mechanisms) are described in detail.Next, we look at how additive manufacturing(AM) has progressed recently in making sensors and actuators for application in tremor orthoses. Then, the materials used in AM are further analyzed. It is found that traditional manufacturing problems can be solved with the help of AM techniques, like making orthoses that are affordable, lighter, and more customizable. Another concept being discussed is using smart materials and AM methods, such as four-dimensional(4D) printing, to make orthoses that are more comfortable and efficient. | Moslem Mohammadi Ali Zolfagharian Mahdi Bodaghi Yong Xiang Abbas Z.Kouzani | 2022 | Bio-Design and Manufacturing2022，5，4： | 0 |
