Machine Learning Driven Inverse Design of Broadband Acoustic Superscattering

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Multilayer acoustic superscatterers are designed using machine learning to achieve broadband superscattering and strong sound insulation. By incorporating a weighted mean absolute error into the loss function, the forward and inverse neural networks accurately map structural parameters to spectral responses.

Explaining the Origin of Negative Poisson's Ratio in Amorphous Networks With Machine Learning

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This review summarizes how machine learning (ML) breaks the “vicious cycle” in designing auxetic amorphous networks. By transitioning from traditional “black‐box” optimization to an interpretable “AI‐Physics” closed‐loop paradigm, ML is shown to not only discover highly optimized structures—such as all‐convex polygon networks—but also unveil hidden ...

Stimulated Forward Brillouin Scattering in Subwavelength Grating Silicon Membranes

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This work proposes a novel strategy to achieve large Brillouin scattering with independent control of the optical and mechanical modes using subwavelength silicon membranes. We experimentally demonstrate remarkably high Brillouin gain, resulting in an on/off Stokes gain of 3 dB and anti‐Stokes loss of 4 dB in a 6 mm‐long waveguide with 35 mW of on‐chip

Properties of Liquid Crystalline Elastomer Foams

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Controlled foaming of liquid crystalline elastomers (LCE) with expandable microspheres creates particle‐centred mesogenic interphases that enhance viscoelastic dissipation at low bubble fractions. Under impact, optimal damping shifts to moderate porosity, balancing interphase loss, bubble compression, compliance, and integrity.
