Extended CT Void Analysis in FDM Additive Manufacturing Components

This article provides an extended analysis of void shape by means of X-ray computed tomography (CT) applied to fused deposition modeling (FDM) samples. Furthermore, a relation between the tensile mechanical properties and digital void measurements is established. The results lead to the formulation of a novel criterion that predicts the mechanical behavior of AM components.

Fabrication and characterization of inkjet-printed 2D perovskite optoelectronic devices (open access)

Fabrication and characterization of inkjet-printed 2D perovskite optoelectronic devices

Article presents the large scale synthesis of solution-processed 2D (CH₃(CH₂)₃NH₃)₂(CH₃NH₃)ₙ − 1PbₙI₃ₙ + 1 (n = 2, 3, and 4) perovskites, a family of layered compounds with composition-tunable bandgap, where inkjet printing was used to fabricate heterostructure, flexible photodetector devices. The flexible, inkjet-printed perovskite 2D heterostructures have significant potential for optoelectronic devices, which can enable broad possibilities with compositional tunability and versatility of the organohalide perovskites.

HAR-Depth: A Novel Framework for Human Action Recognition Using Sequential Learning and Depth Estimated History Images (open access)

HAR-Depth: A Novel Framework for Human Action Recognition Using Sequential Learning and Depth Estimated History Images

This is the Accepted Manuscript version of an article that proposes HAR-Depth with sequential and shape learning along with the novel concept of depth history image (DHI) to address the challenges of Human action recognition (HAR). Results suggest that the proposed work of this paper performs better in terms of overall accuracy, kappa parameter and precision compared to the other state-of-the-art algorithms present in the earlier reported literature.
