1. Soft Intelligence : Liquids Matter in Compliant Microsystems
Abstract : Soft matter, here, liquids and polymers, have adaptability to a surrounding geometry. They intrinsically have advantageous characteristics from a mechanical perspective, such as flowing and wetting on surrounding surfaces, giving compliant, conformal and deformable behavior. READ MORE

2. Liquid metal microscale deposition for soft and stretchable skin-like electronics : Providing a soft and gentle contact to living beings
Abstract : Skin-like electronics could provide a soft and gentle contact with living beings for perceiving and delivering the information of pressure, strain, temperature with higher spatial resolution and sensitivity than our skin, without disturbing the user. Gallium-based liquid metal (LM) is an excellent material for soft and stretchable skin-like devices, since it has high electrical and thermal conductivity, flowability, and self-healable capability.

4. Modelling of Dynamic Contact - Exemplified on the Tyre/Road Interaction
Abstract : Noise is a severe problem in modern society. Road traffic noise is a substantial contributor and the tyre/road interaction is the main noise source for normal driving conditions. Despite more than 30 years of research, there is a lack of quantitative tyre/road noise prediction models. READ MORE

5. Jamming and Soft-Core Rheology
Abstract : Many different physical systems, such as granular materials, colloids, foams and emulsions exhibit a jamming transition where the system changes from a liquid-like flowing state to a solid jammed state as the packing fraction increases. These systems are often modeled using soft-core particles with repulsive contact forces. READ MORE
