A highly elastic, moisturizing, and adhesion conductive hydrogel designed for cuffless blood pressure measurement.

Real-time monitoring of blood pressure in athletes during exercise is of great importance, however, conventional methods pose challenges in achieving portable and instantaneous measurements. While, the electrodes used in emerging wearable blood pressure monitoring instruments still have certain defects. In this study, a novel cuffless blood pressure monitoring system was developed using a self-developed polyacrylamide/trehalose/LiCl (PAM/Trehalose/LiCl) conductive hydrogel as the electrode material.

Ultrathin hierarchical hydrogel-carbon nanocomposite for highly stretchable fast-response water-proof wearable humidity sensors.

Wearable humidity sensors play an important role in human health monitoring. However, challenges persist in realizing high performance wearable humidity sensors with fast response and good stretchability and durability. Here we report wearable humidity sensors employing an ultrathin micro-nano hierarchical hydrogel-carbon nanocomposite.

A Novel Fault Feature Recognition Method for Time-Varying Signals and Its Application to Planetary Gearbox Fault Diagnosis under Variable Speed Conditions.

The existing time-frequency analysis (TFA) methods mainly highlight the time-frequency ridges of the interested components by optimizing the time-frequency plane to facilitate the extraction of the relevant components. Generalized demodulation (GD), order tracking (OT), and other methods are generally used in conjunction with the TFA methods to realize the transition from a time-varying signal to a stationary signal, and finally identify the fault feature through a time-frequency plane. Generally, it is necessary to clarify the accuracy of the estimated components such as the rotational frequency or the fault characteristic frequency (FCF) during the operation of the GD or OT methods.
