Bio‐Inspired Magnetically Tunable Structural Colors from Elliptical Self‐Assembled Block Copolymer Microparticles

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cephalopod‐inspired photonic microparticles with dynamic structural coloration are fabricated via confined self‐assembly of linear block copolymers into ellipsoids containing stacked lamellae. Embedded superparamagnetic nanoparticles enable rapid magnetic alignment, restoring vivid, angle‐dependent color.

Disegno del desiderio

open access: yesAnd, 2022
Le arti figurative del Cinquecento italiano sono ricche di richiami simbolici, più o meno espliciti, all’erotismo. Se nei soggetti ripresi in scene di sacralità l’autocensura si fa manifesta nell’evocare la parvenza di una controllata allusione all ...

From Clinic to Computation: Multiscale Bioengineering Strategies for Durable Biological Aortic Valve Replacements

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioprosthetic aortic valves have revolutionized the treatment of aortic stenosis, but their durability is limited by structural valve deterioration (SVD). This review focuses on the pericardial tissue at the heart of these valves, examining how its mechanical properties and calcification drive fatigue and failure.

Eterodossia del modello geometrico borrominiano

open access: yesAnd, 2022
“Ed io stimo che meno male sia essere un cattivo cattolico che un buon eretico”. Con queste parole Gian Lorenzo Bernini pone in maniera antitetica la sua produzione architettonica con quella di Francesco Borromini che, nel rinnovamento dei caratteri ed ...

Thermo‐Mechanically Recyclable Smart Textiles from Circularly Knitted Liquid Crystal Elastomer Fibers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Reprogrammable multi‐material smart textiles knitted from liquid crystal elastomer fibers undergo 2D and 3D deformation under thermal and photo stimuli. Circularly knitted tubular structures reversibly contract in radial and axial directions, enabling autonomous climbing, liquid release, and micro pumping.
