Abstract
Piezoelectric biomaterials have demonstrated significant potential in the past few decades to heal damaged tissue and restore cellular functionalities. Herein, we discuss the role of bioelectricity in tissue remodeling and explore ways to mimic such tissue-like properties in synthetic biomaterials. In the past decade, biomedical engineers have adopted emerging functional biomaterials-based tissue engineering approaches using innovative bioelectronic stimulation protocols based on dynamic stimuli to direct cellular activation, proliferation, and differentiation on engineered biomaterial constructs. The primary focus of this review is to discuss the concepts of piezoelectric energy harvesting, piezoelectric materials, and their application in soft (skin and neural) and hard (dental and bone) tissue regeneration. While discussing the prospective applications as an engineered tissue, an important distinction has been made between piezoceramics, piezopolymers, and their composites. The superiority of piezopolymers over piezoceramics to circumvent issues such as stiffness mismatch, biocompatibility, and biodegradability are highlighted. We aim to provide a comprehensive review of the field and identify opportunities for the future to develop clinically relevant and state-of-the-art biomaterials for personalized and remote health care.

Abstract
The spectral properties of gap electroacoustic waves in aPT-symmetric structure of piezoelectrics of symmetry class 6mm separated by a gap are theoretically investigated. The spectra were calculated for lead germanate (non-zero transverse piezoactivity) and barium titanate (symmetry class 4mm - zero transverse piezoactivity). It has been established that at a certain level of losses and gain in piezoelectrics, the symmetric and antisymmetric modes intersect. The intersection point determines the singular point of thePT-symmetric structure. Beyond this point, there is a violation of the symmetric and antisymmetric distribution of electric fields in the gap of the slotted structure of two identical piezoelectrics, which is confirmed by the calculation of the electric field profiles. It is shown that the dependence of the amplitude on the frequency at an exceptional point has an extremely narrow resonance peak, which opens up the possibility of creating supersensitive sensors based onPT-symmetric physical structures.

Abstract
We present experimental demonstration of specific resonance mode enhancement and suppression in circular and rectangular piezoelectric wafers with engineered non-uniform polarization profiles. The polarization profiles are designed based on the electromechanical impedance response of non-uniformly polarized wafers as obtained from the theory. The circular wafers are fabricated with non-uniform polarization profiles that involve a central polarized region surrounded by an unpolarized region. The radius of the polarization zone is designed based on the condition for specific mode enhancement obtained from the electromechanical impedance response of non-uniformly polarized wafers. We actually show how the condition can not only be used to enhance but also to suppress electromechanical resonances. Two kinds of wafers are designed and fabricated to specifically suppress second and third radial modes respectively. Similarly, rectangular wafers are designed with two different kinds of non-uniform polarization profiles - the first of which enhances the second in-plane extensional mode in the impedance spectrum and the second polarization profile suppresses all the electromechanical resonances pertaining to the in-plane extensional modes and selectively excites only the in-plane bending modes. The proposed approach of using non-uniformly polarized wafers finds application in designing multi-frequency sensors/transducers, frequency-tuned receivers, acoustic beamforming, and other non-traditional applications such as information storage.

Abstract
Electrical stimulation for delivery of biochemical agents such as genes, proteins and RNA molecules amongst others, holds great potential for controlled therapeutic delivery and in promoting tissue regeneration. Electroactive biomaterials have the capability of delivering these agents in a localized, controlled, responsive and efficient manner. These systems have also been combined for the delivery of both physical and biochemical cues and can be programmed to achieve enhanced effects on healing by establishing control over the microenvironment. This review focuses on current state-of-the-art research in electroactive-based materials towards the delivery of drugs and other therapeutic signalling agents for wound care treatment. Future directions and current challenges for developing effective electroactive approach based therapies for wound care are discussed.

Abstract
Molecular modeling of ferroelectric composites containing polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and either graphene (G) or graphene oxide (GO) were performed using the semi-empirical quantum approximation PM3 in HyperChem. The piezo properties of the composites were analyzed and compared with experimental data obtained for P(VDF-TrFE)-GO films. Qualitative agreement was obtained between the results of the modeling and the experimental results in terms of the properties of the measured effective piezoelectric coefficient d 33eff and its decrease in the presence of G/GO in comparison with the average computed piezoelectric coefficient <d 33>. When models incorporating one or several G layers with 54 carbon atoms were investigated, the average piezoelectric coefficient <d 33> was found to decrease to -9.8 pm/V for the one-sided model PVDF/G and to -18.98 pm/V for the sandwich model G/PVDF/G as compared with the calculated piezoelectric coefficient for pure PVDF (<d 33> = -42.2 pm/V computed in present work, and <d33> = -38.5 pm/V, obtained from J Mol Model 35 (2013) 19:3591-3602). When models incorporating one or several GO layers with 98 carbon atoms were considered, the piezoelectric coefficient was found to decrease to -14.6 pm/V for the one-sided PVDF/GO model and to -29.8 pm/V for the sandwich GO/PVDF/GO model as compared with the same calculated piezoelectric coefficient for pure PVDF.

Independent optical control of microfluidic valves formed from optomechanically responsive nanocomposite hydrogels is achieved using strongly absorbing Au nanoparticles or nanoshells embedded within a thermally responsive polymer. Valves formed from composites with different nanoparticles could be independently controlled by changing the illumination wavelength.
