Uncovering vein patterns from color skin images for personal identification in forensic investigation by Tang, Chaoying

“…Using these images as evidence in legal cases (e.g. child sexual abuse, child pornography and masked gunmen) can be very challenging, because the faces of criminals or victims are not visible. Although large skin marks and tattoos have been used, they are ineffective in some legal cases, because the skin exposed in evidence images have neither unique tattoos nor enough skin marks for identification. …”

Development of pigmented human skin constructs via 3D drop-on-demand bioprinting by Ng, Wei Long

“…The 3D hierarchical porous collagen-fibroblast matrices serve as the dermal skin constructs for patterning of EMUs. Lastly, the feasibility of fabricating pigmented human skin constructs with uniform skin pigmentation (using 3 different skin cells from 3 different skin donors) is demonstrated. …”

Vitrimer-like shape memory polymers : characterization and applications in reshaping and manufacturing by Wang, Tao Xi, Chen, Hong Mei, Salvekar, Abhijit Vijay, Lim, Junyi, Chen, Yahui, Xiao, Rui, Huang, Wei Min

“…Vitrimer, which is between thermoset and thermo-plastic, is featured by the reversible cross-linking. Vitrimer-like shape memory polymers (SMPs) combine the vitrimer-like behavior (associated with dissociative covalent adaptable networks) and SME, and can be utilized to achieve many novel functions that are difficult to be realized by conventional polymers. …”
