Finally, we show that we obtain strain and temperature data from the cast part to develop smart components out of cast aluminum and to enable new sensing technologies.
From a control system point of view these robots are networks of distributed smart components to perceive their environment and react on it in real time.
Accordingly, CNT based CPCs represent promising candidates for the design of smart components capable of integrated monitoring.
In its paper on smart cities, the European Parliament [17] counts smart mobility as a fundamental component of smart cities with smart governance, smart economy, smart environment, smart people and smart living.
Subsequently, a 3D CAD model of a smart tibial component of TKA was designed in Solidworks software, and verified using a finite element analysis in ANSYS Workbench.
The integration of traditional materials and technologies in the field of electronics, photonics and computer science are leading to a new class of smart components that provide advanced functionalities and enable original applications.
This paper presents an overview of the smart components and structures based on FRP.
One of the most critical issues to address for the Smart Textiles concept is the integration of the smart components into textile structures (Kirstein 2013).
This article introduces the concept of the smart railroad wagon, modeled from smart components.
Smart grid: The smart grid is an important component of a smart city.
