  • Dynamic body part simulator
    Patent number: 12640057
    Abstract: An apparatus for simulating a body part includes a base and an actuator connected to the base. Rotors are rotatable about an axis in response to actuation of the actuator. Each rotor includes radially extending slots. Flanges are circumferentially arranged about the rotor. Each flange includes actuating pistons slidably received in the slots of the rotors such that the flanges are moved radially relative to the axis in response to actuation of the actuator to vary a volume defined by the flanges and thereby simulate body part expansion.

  • Engineered materials and methods of forming
    Patent number: 12480233
    Abstract: A method of forming a substrate includes mapping a three dimensional spatial distribution of at least one structural protein fiber of extracellular matrix of biological material of interest, designing a fiber assembly pattern based on an intrinsic pattern of the at least one structural protein fiber of the extracellular matrix of the biological material, and assembling fibers based on the fiber assembly pattern to form the substrate.

  • SMART COMPOSITE TEXTILES AND METHODS OF FORMING
    Publication number: 20210228779
    Abstract: A smart material includes a composite textile that includes a textile substrate and a material disposed via an additive manufacturing technique onto the textile substrate based on an additive manufacturing pattern. The composite textile includes a gradient in least one of mechanical property, material property, or structural property and/or exhibits a change in at least one mechanical property, material property, or structure in response to at least one external stimulus.
