In this work, the data visualization activity (DVA) worksheet method for teaching and learning data visualization is presented. The DVA worksheet method consists of a series of activity worksheets developed to guide novice instructors and students through the data visualization process. The activity worksheets help new faculty and visualization instructors, lacking formal training in pedagogy and data visualization, learn the data visualization process, design course work, and develop curriculum. The worksheets can be used for individual activities, or as a collection of activities to support data visualization capacity building. Each worksheet focuses on an individual step in the process, allowing the worksheets to be tailored to discipline-specific data visualization needs. We share the motivation and evolution of the worksheets from paper-based to the semi-automated process utilized in fall 2020. We conclude this work with a discussion and areas for improvement.

Tiny Machine Learning Implementation for Guided Wave-Based Damage Localization.
Sensors (Basel)
January 2025
Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Siegen, Paul-Bonatz-Straße 9-11, 57076 Siegen, Germany.
This work leverages ultrasonic guided waves (UGWs) to detect and localize damage in structures using lightweight Artificial Intelligence (AI) models. It investigates the use of machine learning (ML) to train the effects of the damage on UGWs to the model. To reduce the number of trainable parameters, a physical signal processing approach is applied to the raw data before passing the data to the model.

Department of Biomedical Engineering, Yonsei University, Wonju 26493, Republic of Korea.
This study presents the fabrication of a sustainable flexible humidity sensor utilizing chitosan derived from mealworm biomass as the primary sensing material. The chitosan-based humidity sensor was fabricated by casting chitosan and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) films with interdigitated copper electrodes, forming a laminate composite suitable for real-time, resistive-type humidity detection. Comprehensive characterization of the chitosan film was performed using Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, contact angle measurements, and tensile testing, which confirmed its chemical structure, wettability, and mechanical stability.

Faculty of Architecture and Civil Engineering, Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences, 76133 Karlsruhe, Germany.
Engineers, geomorphologists, and ecologists acknowledge the need for temporally and spatially resolved measurements of sediment clogging (also known as colmation) in permeable gravel-bed rivers due to its adverse impacts on water and habitat quality. In this paper, we present a novel method for non-destructive, real-time measurements of pore-scale sediment deposition and monitoring of clogging by using wire-mesh sensors (WMSs) embedded in spheres, forming a smart gravel bed (GravelSens). The measuring principle is based on one-by-one voltage excitation of transmitter electrodes, followed by simultaneous measurements of the resulting current by receiver electrodes at each crossing measuring pores.

The strong motion records collected in full-scale structures provide the ultimate evidence of how real structures, in situ, respond to earthquakes. This paper presents a novel method for visualization, in three dimensions (3D), of the collective motion by a dense array of sensors in a building. The method is based on one- and two-dimensional biharmonic spline interpolation of the motion recorded by multiple sensors on the same or multiple floors.

: Totally endoscopic techniques have become increasingly popular in cardiac surgery, with minimally invasive mitral valve repair emerging as an effective alternative to median sternotomy. This approach could be particularly advantageous for patients with Noonan syndrome, who often present with structural thoracic anomalies and other comorbidities like bleeding disorders. Endoscopic mitral valve surgery is rapidly establishing itself as the new standard of care for mitral valve operations, demonstrating both safety and efficacy.
