2d Material Inks for Printed Electronics
Functional printing is a tried and tested method of low-cost and high-throughput production. Combining 2d materials with printing is an emerging, cost-effective and large-scale fabrication strategy of their devices. However, successful scale-up and adoption of printing as an ubiquitous fabrication …

Enhancing the Effectiveness and Availability of Orthoses by Additive Manufacturing
… process required for customisation. While 3D printing provides a more rapid and cost-effective approach for fabricating custom-fit AFOs, the current 3D-printed AFOs remain bulky and rigid owing to their limited design and the use of low-stiffness materials, thus still restricting the natural …

Characteristic Modes for Impedance Matching and Broadbanding of Electrically Small Antennas
Antennas smaller than a quarter wavelength are fundamentally constrained in a variety of ways. One of the more problematic limitations is that the antenna's bandwidth declines sharply as the size of the antenna decreases. Myriad studies have sought antennas that perform close to the fundamental …
