• Design of a Robust Tool for Deploying Large-Area Stretchable Sensor Networks from Microscale to Macroscale. Sensors (Basel, Switzerland) Ransom, E., Chen, X., Chang, F. 2022; 22 (13)

  Abstract

  An investigation was conducted to develop an effective automated tool to deploy micro-fabricated stretchable networks of distributed sensors onto the surface of large structures at macroscale to create "smart" structures with embedded distributed sensor networks. Integrating a large network of distributed sensors with structures has been a major challenge in the design of so-called smart structures or devices for cyber-physical applications where a large amount of usage data from structures or devices can be generated for artificial intelligence applications. Indeed, many "island-and-serpentine"-type distributed sensor networks, while promising, remain difficult to deploy. This study aims to enable such networks to be deployed in a safe, automated, and efficient way. To this end, a scissor-hinge controlled system was proposed as the basis for a deployment mechanism for such stretchable sensor networks (SSNs). A model based on a kinematic scissor-hinge mechanism was developed to simulate and design the proposed system to automatically stretch a micro-scaled square network with uniformly distributed sensor nodes. A prototype of an automatic scissor-hinge stretchable tool was constructed during the study with an array of four scissor-hinge mechanisms, each belt-driven by a single stepper motor. Two micro-fabricated SSNs from a 100 mm wafer were fabricated at the Stanford Nanofabrication Facility for this deployment study. The networks were designed to be able to cover an area 100 times their manufacturing size (from a 100 mm diameter wafer to a 1 m2 active area) once stretched. It was demonstrated that the proposed deployment tool could place sensor nodes in prescribed locations efficiently within a drastically shorter time than in current labor-intensive manual deployment methods.

  Abstract

  This article presents the development of a stretchable sensor network with high signal-to-noise ratio and measurement accuracy for real-time distributed sensing and remote monitoring. The described sensor network was designed as an island-and-serpentine type network comprising a grid of sensor "islands" connected by interconnecting "serpentines." A novel high-yield manufacturing process was developed to fabricate networks on recyclable 4-inch wafers at a low cost. The resulting stretched sensor network has 17 distributed and functionalized sensing nodes with low tolerance and high resolution. The sensor network includes Piezoelectric (PZT), Strain Gauge (SG), and Resistive Temperature Detector (RTD) sensors. The design and development of a flexible frame with signal conditioning, data acquisition, and wireless data transmission electronics for the stretchable sensor network are also presented. The primary purpose of the frame subsystem is to convert sensor signals into meaningful data, which are displayed in real-time for an end-user to view and analyze. The challenges and demonstrated successes in developing this new system are demonstrated, including (a) developing separate signal conditioning circuitry and components for all three sensor types (b) enabling simultaneous sampling for PZT sensors for impact detection and (c) configuration of firmware/software for correct system operation. The network was expanded with an in-house developed automated stretch machine to expand it to cover the desired area. The released and stretched network was laminated into an aerospace composite wing with edge-mount electronics for signal conditioning, processing, power, and wireless communication.

• Static Tactile Sensing for a Robotic Electronic Skin via an Electromechanical Impedance-Based Approach. Sensors (Basel, Switzerland) Liu, C. n., Zhuang, Y. n., Nasrollahi, A. n., Lu, L. n., Haider, M. F., Chang, F. K. 2020; 20 (10)

  Abstract

  Tactile sensing is paramount for robots operating in human-centered environments to help in understanding interaction with objects. To enable robots to have sophisticated tactile sensing capability, researchers have developed different kinds of electronic skins for robotic hands and arms in order to realize the 'sense of touch'. Recently, Stanford Structures and Composites Laboratory developed a robotic electronic skin based on a network of multi-modal micro-sensors. This skin was able to identify temperature profiles and detect arm strikes through embedded sensors. However, sensing for the static pressure load is yet to be investigated. In this work, an electromechanical impedance-based method is proposed to investigate the response of piezoelectric sensors under static normal pressure loads. The smart skin sample was firstly fabricated by embedding a piezoelectric sensor into the soft silicone. Then, a series of static pressure tests to the skin were conducted. Test results showed that the first peak of the real part impedance signal was sensitive to static pressure load, and by using the proposed diagnostic method, this test setup could detect a resolution of 0.5 N force. Numerical simulation methods were then performed to validate the experimental results. The results of the numerical simulation prove the validity of the experiments, as well as the robustness of the proposed method in detecting static pressure loads using the smart skin.

• A Self-Adaptive 1D Convolutional Neural Network for Flight-State Identification. Sensors (Basel, Switzerland) Chen, X., Kopsaftopoulos, F., Wu, Q., Ren, H., Chang, F. 2019; 19 (2)

  Abstract

  The vibration of a wing structure in the air reflects coupled aerodynamic⁻mechanical responses under varying flight states that are defined by the angle of attack and airspeed. It is of great challenge to identify the flight state from the complex vibration signals. In this paper, a novel one-dimension convolutional neural network (CNN) is developed, which is able to automatically extract useful features from the structural vibration of a recently fabricated self-sensing wing through wind-tunnel experiments. The obtained signals are firstly decomposed into various subsignals with different frequency bands via dual-tree complex-wavelet packet transformation. Then, the reconstructed subsignals are selected to form the best combination for multichannel inputs of the CNN. A swarm-based evolutionary algorithm called grey-wolf optimizer is utilized to optimize a set of key parameters of the CNN, which saves considerable human efforts. Two case studies demonstrate the high identification accuracy and robustness of the proposed method over standard deep-learning methods in flight-state identification, thus providing new perspectives in self-awareness toward the next generation of intelligent air vehicles.

  Abstract

  Smart structures mimic biological systems by using thousands of sensors serving as a nervous system analog. One approach to give structures this sensing ability is to develop a multifunctional sensor network. Previous work has demonstrated stretchable sensor networks consisting of temperature sensors and impact detectors for monitoring external environments and interacting with other objects. The objective of this work is to develop distributed, robust and reliable strain gauges for obtaining the strain distribution of a designated region on the target structure. Here, we report a stretchable network that has 27 rosette strain gauges, 6 resistive temperature devices and 8 piezoelectric transducers symmetrically distributed over an area of 150 * 150 mm to map and quantify multiple physical stimuli with a spatial resolution of 2.5 * 2.5 mm. We performed computational modeling of the network stretching process to improve measurement accuracy and conducted experimental characterizations of the microfabricated strain gauges to verify their gauge factor and temperature coefficient. Collectively, the results represent a robust and reliable sensing system that is able to generate a distributed strain profile of a common structure. The reported strain gauge network may find a wide range of applications in morphing wings, smart buildings, autonomous cars and intelligent robots.

• Flight State Identification of a Self-Sensing Wing via an Improved Feature Selection Method and Machine Learning Approaches. Sensors (Basel, Switzerland) Chen, X., Kopsaftopoulos, F., Wu, Q., Ren, H., Chang, F. 2018; 18 (5)

  Abstract

  In this work, a data-driven approach for identifying the flight state of a self-sensing wing structure with an embedded multi-functional sensing network is proposed. The flight state is characterized by the structural vibration signals recorded from a series of wind tunnel experiments under varying angles of attack and airspeeds. A large feature pool is created by extracting potential features from the signals covering the time domain, the frequency domain as well as the information domain. Special emphasis is given to feature selection in which a novel filter method is developed based on the combination of a modified distance evaluation algorithm and a variance inflation factor. Machine learning algorithms are then employed to establish the mapping relationship from the feature space to the practical state space. Results from two case studies demonstrate the high identification accuracy and the effectiveness of the model complexity reduction via the proposed method, thus providing new perspectives of self-awareness towards the next generation of intelligent air vehicles.

  Abstract

  A bio-inspired absolute pressure sensor network has been developed. Absolute pressure sensors, distributed on multiple silicon islands, are connected as a network by stretchable polyimide wires. This sensor network, made on a 4'' wafer, has 77 nodes and can be mounted on various curved surfaces to cover an area up to 0.64 m × 0.64 m, which is 100 times larger than its original size. Due to Micro Electro-Mechanical system (MEMS) surface micromachining technology, ultrathin sensing nodes can be realized with thicknesses of less than 100 µm. Additionally, good linearity and high sensitivity (~14 mV/V/bar) have been achieved. Since the MEMS sensor process has also been well integrated with a flexible polymer substrate process, the entire sensor network can be fabricated in a time-efficient and cost-effective manner. Moreover, an accurate pressure contour can be obtained from the sensor network. Therefore, this absolute pressure sensor network holds significant promise for smart vehicle applications, especially for unmanned aerial vehicles.

• Composite hip prosthesis design .1. Analysis JOURNAL OF BIOMEDICAL MATERIALS RESEARCH Yildiz, H., Ha, S. K., Chang, F. K. 1998; 39 (1): 92-101

  Abstract

  An investigation was performed to study the mechanical performance of fiber-reinforced composite hip prostheses in a femur. The main objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of fiber orientation of a composite femoral implant on the response of the surrounding femoral bone. A three-dimensional finite element analysis was developed for analyzing a composite implant in the femur. A three-dimensional composite element was proposed to take into account ply drop-off due to a change of cross-section of the composite implant. The element could accommodate multidirectional layers and tapered composites. The material properties of the composite were treated as anisotropic and inhomogeneous while the properties of femoral bone were treated as anisotropic and homogenous. All the materials were assumed to behave linear-elastically. The thermoplastic graphite/PEEK material system was selected for the study. In this presentation, as the first part of the study, the development of the finite element analysis will be described. Numerical calculations were generated and compared with existing data and numerical results available from studies related to metal hip prostheses in the literature. Experiments on the composite hip implants were also conducted for further verification of the analysis and the computer simulations. In Part II, using the finite element code, an extensive study was performed to evaluate the stress/strain distributions, micromotions, and strain-energy density of the surrounding femoral bone, which have been related to initial fixation and long-term stability of the prosthesis in a femoral bone. Numerous fiber orientations were studied, and results of the calculations were compared with those generated by the prosthesis made of cobalt alloy and titanium alloy.

  Abstract

  An investigation was performed to study the mechanical performance of fiber-reinforced composite hip prostheses. In Part I of the study, a three-dimensional finite element code was developed for analyzing a composite hip prosthesis in a femur. The material properties of the composite were treated as anisotropic and inhomogeneous while the properties of the femoral bone were treated as anisotropic and homogeneous. All the materials were assumed to behave linear-elastically. Thermoplastic graphite/PEEK material was selected for the study. No slippage was assumed at the interface between the implant and the surrounding femoral bone. In Part II, numerical simulations were performed using the code to study the performance of a composite prosthesis in the femur. The stress/strain distributions, micromotions, and strain energy density of the surrounding femoral bone were evaluated and found to be related to initial fixation and long-term stability of the prosthesis in the femur. Numerous fiber orientations were studied, and the results of the calculations were compared with those generated from a prosthesis made of cobalt chrome and Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloys. Based on the analysis, it was shown that compared to conventional metallic implants more favorable stresses and deformations could be generated in the femur using composite implants. In addition, by changing fiber orientations according to femoral loads, a composite implant could be designed specifically for the left or the right femur.

  Abstract

  This work is concerned with the design of hip prostheses using advanced fiber reinforced composite materials. The major focus of the study is to evaluate how the stiffness and strength of composite hip prostheses can be affected by variations in ply orientation and stacking sequence for a selected manufacturing method. This investigation involved both analytical and experimental work. An analytical model was developed which consists of a stress analysis and a failure analysis. A finite element program was developed during the course of the investigation for analyzing stresses, strains, and deformations of composite stems with a simplified configuration. Failure and mode of failure were predicted by appropriately selected failure criteria. Experiments were also performed on T300/976 graphite/epoxy composites to verify the analysis and the computer calculations. Both testing and analysis accounted for the various combinations of in-plane and out-of-plane (torsion) loading that can act on the prosthetic hip. Simplified composite stems with a 120 layer thickness were fabricated and tested. An excellent agreement was found between the measured strain data and the numerical calculations. Using the program, parametric studies were performed. It was found that an optimal design of hip stems can be achieved by using advanced fiber-reinforced composite materials, but great care must be taken when selecting the appropriate ply orientation and stacking sequence for a chosen fabrication method.
