Many classes of flexible and stretchable bio-integrated electronic systems rely on mechanically sensitive electromagnetic components, such as various forms of antennas for wireless communication and for harvesting energy through coupling with external power sources. This efficient wireless functionality can be important for body area network technologies and can enable operation without the weight and bulky size of batteries for power supply. Recently, antenna designs have received increased attention because their mechanical and electromagnetic properties significantly influence the wireless performance of bio-integrated electronics, particularly under excessive mechanical loads. These mechanical factors are critical for skin-integrated electronics during human motion, as complex skin deformations can damage the conductive traces of antennas, such as those used for near-field communication (NFC), leading to yield or fracture and affecting their electromagnetic stability. Serpentine interconnects have been proposed as a geometric alternative to in-plane circular or rectangular spiral antenna designs to improve the elastic stretchability of the metallic traces in NFC antennas and prevent mechanical fractures. Despite the use of serpentine interconnects within the physiologically relevant strain range for skin (<20 %), the electromagnetic stability of the antennas decreases. This instability, reflected by shifts in resonance frequency and scattering parameters due to inductance changes, reduces the antennas' wireless power transfer efficiency and readout range. Therefore, maintaining the electromagnetic stability of antennas, specifically NFC antennas, under various mechanical deformations has become a critical challenge in practical wireless skin-integrated applications, such as sensing and physiological monitoring. Here, we establish a new mechanics and electromagnetic scaling law that quantifies the inductance changes under strain in a rectangular-loop serpentine structure typically used for NFC wireless communication in stretchable electronics. We present a systematic analysis of the antenna's geometric parameters, material properties of the antenna and substrate, and the applied strain on the inductance change. Our findings demonstrate that the relative change of inductance is solely influenced by the serpentine structure's width-radius ratio, arc angle, aspect ratio of the NFC antennas, and the applied strain. Additionally, under physiological strain conditions for the skin, the relative change of inductance can be minimized to preserve the NFC antenna's performance and prevent mechanical fracture and electromagnetic stability loss.

A recent report discusses research conducted at the Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology in Patiala, India, on the use of microwave imaging (MI) for detecting skin cancer. MI is a noninvasive and nonionizing procedure that uses radiofrequency and microwaves to detect cancerous cells in healthy body tissues. The researchers designed, developed, and tested a low-profile Ultra Wide Band (UWB) Archimedean spiral microstrip-patch antenna (ASMA) for this purpose. In silico, in vitro, and in vivo testing of the ASMA showed promising results, with reconstructed images being 97%-98% accurate. The researchers also found that the ASMA sensor is safe for human exposure, complying with safety guidelines for minimizing potential health risks associated with RF and microwave radiation.

• Homoclinic chaos in a Lorenz-like laser model is studied using symbolic dynamics and parameter continuation. • The recently developed technique for symbolic dynamics called Deterministic Chaos Prospector is employed using GPU parallelization. • Multiplicity and self-similarity of homoclinic and heteroclinic bifurcation structures in the 2D and 3D parameter spaces are revealed. • Bykov T-point spirals, inclination flips, parametric saddles, isolated closed curves (isolas) and bifurcation surfaces in 3D parameter space are presented in detail. • Specific codimension-two bifurcations patterning regions of chaotic and simple dynamics are described. We present a case study elaborating on the multiplicity and self-similarity of homoclinic and heteroclinic bifurcation structures in the 2D and 3D parameter spaces of a nonlinear laser model with a Lorenz-like chaotic attractor. In a symbiotic approach combining the traditional parameter continuation methods using MatCont and a newly developed technique called the Deterministic Chaos Prospector (DCP) utilizing symbolic dynamics on fast parallel computing hardware with graphics processing units (GPUs), we exhibit how specific codimension-two bifurcations originate and pattern regions of chaotic and simple dynamics in this classical model. We show detailed computational reconstructions of key bifurcation structures such as Bykov T-point spirals and inclination flips in 2D parameter space, as well as the spatial organization and 3D embedding of bifurcation surfaces, parametric saddles, and isolated closed curves (isolas).

• Synchronization of spatiotemporal patterns in a multiplex network of van der Pol oscillators is studied. • The synchronization features for both the inertial and dissipative inter-layer coupling are discovered. • A phenomenon of the "desynchronization window" for the case of inertial inter-layer coupling have been explained. We analyse the synchronization of spatiotemporal patterns based on spiral and target waves, which are realized in a multiplex network consisting of two nonidentical 2D lattices of the nonlocally coupled van der Pol oscillators. We study the syncronization and its features for two types of the inter-layer unidirectional coupling, namely dissipative and inertial. We show that the synchronization features for these cases are significantly different. When the inter-layer coupling is dissipative the synchronization between the layers is observed only for the strong inter-layer coupling or is even impossible. For the case of inertial interaction the layers are synchronized at sufficiently weak coupling strength. At the same time, there are "desynchronization windows", in which the layer regimes are no longer synchronized. We explain these phenomena by a noticeably different influence of the inter-layer coupling on the dynamics of individual oscillators in the cases of dissipative and inertial interaction of the layers.
