Breaking the Surface: Buoyant Metal–Polymer Open–Cell Hybrid Lattice Metamaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Open‐cell metal–polymer lattice metamaterials that defy sinking. (a) Injection process of the polyurethane (PU) foam into the titanium (Ti‐6Al‐4V) hollow‐strut lattice creating the open‐cell Ti‐6Al‐4V+PU hybrid lattice, (b) flotation test of a hybrid lattice specimen, and (c) a digital representation and experimental validation of a marine buoy ...

TESCLA: A Fully Soft Electromagnetic Linear Actuator With Continuous Bending Enabled by Liquid‐Metal Solenoids

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
TESCLA (tubular electromagnetic soft conformal linear actuator) combines liquid‐metal solenoids and compliant magnetic composites to achieve large‐stroke bidirectional actuation with continuous bending. Integrated inductance‐based self‐sensing enables proprioceptive position estimation without external sensors, providing a versatile platform for soft ...

Nuclear Pore Mechanotransduction in Oncology: A Structural Axis of Vulnerability for Targeted Intervention

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Cancer‐associated NPC remodeling creates a high‐flux, low‐stringency nuclear state that supports malignant adaptation but increases mechanical fragility. Targeting the FG‐barrier or NPC scaffold may drive mechanostat failure, envelope rupture, DNA damage, and loss of nuclear integrity.

Interfacial Failure and Self‐Healing in Solid‐State Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Dynamic interfacial self‐healing offers an adaptive route to mitigate coupled mechanical, chemical, and electrochemical degradation in solid‐state batteries. This review connects evolving interfacial failure mechanisms with physical‐flow, chemical‐restoration, stimuli‐responsive, and electric‐field‐assisted repair strategies, highlighting targeted self‐

Study on aggregate interlock behavior of pre-cracked recycled aggregate concrete without stirrups

Journal of Building Engineering, 2021
Abstract In this study, experiments on pre-cracked push-off specimens without stirrups were conducted to analyze the aggregate interlock behavior of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). The major variables considered in this study were the surface roughness, recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) replacement ratio, concrete strength, aggregate particle size ...

Nonlinear aggregate interlock model for concrete pavements

International Journal of Pavement Engineering, 2006
The objective of the study was to develop a constitutive model that captures the nonlinear behavior of shear load transfer through aggregate interlock. A stepwise linear model was proposed. The model parameters were determined by optimizing numerically predicted to experimentally measured slab deflection basins.

Effect of particle interlock on flow of aggregate through opening

Powder Technology, 2014
Abstract Blockage of concrete flow through opening or gap often occurs during placement of self-consolidating concrete due to particle interlock of coarse aggregate particles. Suggestions to reduce the coarse aggregate content in order to minimize such particle interlock have been made by some researchers.

Fracture analysis of aggregate interlock jointed slabs-on-grade

Construction and Building Materials, 2015
Abstract This paper discusses finite element analysis of crack propagation in pavement slabs-on-grade with aggregate interlock joints, using the finite element package ABAQUS ®6.9-2. The fracture process is idealized using nonlinear fracture mechanics approach implemented through cohesive elements. Load transfer at the joint is achieved by aggregate

Geogrid-Aggregate Interlock Mechanism Investigated through Aggregate Imaging-Based Discrete Element Modeling Approach

International Journal of Geomechanics, 2012
Geogrids are commonly used in road construction for stabilization and reinforcement purposes. Factors affecting the interaction or interlock mechanisms between geogrids and aggregates may include, but are not limited to, aggregate size and shape and geogrid types and properties.

Aggregate interlock in fractured concrete mesoscale models: a novel finite element modelling approach

open access: yesArchives of Civil and Mechanical Engineering, 2022
Aggregate interlock is a stress transfer mechanism in cracked concrete. After concrete cracks under tensile loading, crack interfaces can experience significant slip deformation due to the applied crack kinematics. Upon rising slip along crack interfaces,
