Abstract:The wearable and flexible sensors are enabling advances in next-generation technologies such as soft robotics, mobile healthcare, internet of things etc. In consequence, novel materials and manufacturing methods have received most of the attention so far. However, with the growing use of these technologies in real applications, other important areas such as mechanical reliability under repeated mechanical deformations also require greater consideration. A few studies covering this aspect have mainly focused on… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
