Soft and stretchable strain sensors have aroused great interest in research engineering fields due to their promising application potential many areas, including human-machine interface healthcare monitoring. However, developing stable, strain-sensitive, fatigue-resistant wearable remains challenging. Herein, we report a low-cost strain-sensing glove based on commercial nitrile liquid metal as both sensing units circuit/interconnects, with excellent response strains stability long-term use. The circuit is prepared by scraping the slurry situ fingers, followed soft silicone encapsulation. whole process does not involve toxic chemicals, so no strict requirements operating environment are necessary. capable of real-time monitoring finger gestures very sensitive accurate way, which exhibits controller manipulating machine hand achieve related interaction.

Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) printing enables large-area, ultra-high-resolution manufacturing across a broad range of ink viscosities, but inevitably encounters difficulties when on electrically insulating three-dimensional substrates due to unpredictable electric field and surface residual charges. To overcome these obstacles, novel approach called plasma-induced electrohydrodynamic (PiE) has been proposed. PiE employs plasma directly create controllable local charge region substrate surfaces, which triggers EHD ejection mitigates the effect However, underlying mechanisms jetting behavior with respect parameters, such as charge-induced field, remain unexplored. Here, we conduct numerical investigation, based Taylor–Melcher leaky dielectric model level set method, printing. We first introduce dynamics throughout entire process. Then, carry out comprehensive investigation under four crucial parameters: amount preset charge, radius duration liquid electrical conductivity. By analyzing induced density, fluid velocity, jet diameters, deposited droplet sizes obtained from results, elucidate influence parameters dynamic behavior, durations process, quality. These findings offer valuable insights into jetting, advancing understanding optimization methods for this useful micro-/nano-manufacturing technology.
