A team of researchers has developed high-reliability artificial thermoreceptors that mimic human nociceptors, enabling robots to detect harmful thermal stimuli with exceptional accuracy. The devices use photo-induced patterning thermoelectrics and exhibit minimal temporal and spatial variations.
Lisa Maillart, PhD, has been named Department Chair of Industrial and Systems Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh Swanson School of Engineering. She aims to expand the department's growth in enrollment and guide interdisciplinary research on challenges like AI, health issues, and supply chain logistics.
Hypergraph research aims to improve network resilience by analyzing multi-way relationships, enabling more accurate representations of complex systems. By modeling projects within Texas A&M University as hypergraphs, researchers can depict interconnectedness and how individual work affects the entire system.
A new design method, SPADE, evaluates UAV video surveillance system quality without real-world manipulations. It assesses the impact of image resolution on object detection performance., The SPADE method can be applied to various UAV systems and will aid in designing complex large-scale systems involving multiple UAVs.
A new planning formula, adapted from the Real Options Approach, aims to transform the Royal Australian Navy's fleet management. The model assesses multiple future scenarios, reducing risk of overinvestment or premature commissioning.
A study of 33 physicians across 17 specialties found that chatbots provided largely accurate information to diverse medical queries. However, the chatbots had important limitations that require further research and model development.
A mathematical model predicts a decline in workplace accidents in Spain from 2011 to 2012, with significant reductions in commute-related accidents. The model forecasts a decrease in fatal and serious accidents, while slight accidents also show a small decline.
