Developed in Japan, the ultrafine "soft yarn" actuator fibers are capable of bending, contracting, and producing complex three-dimensional movements when electricity is applied.

Researchers developed hair-thin polymer fibers that bend and contract with electricity, enabling soft robotic actuators that can be woven into textiles.

A study shows how high-thermal dielectrics outperform FR-4 for bulk heat spreading, with surface-mount thermal bridges ...

In order to simulate the effects of hydrostatic pressure on protein folding/unfolding it is necessary to accurately describe the behavior of the dielectric constant and the density of the solvent ...
