A new auxetic structure with significantly reduced stress concentration effects
Auxetic structures exhibit certain abnormal mechanical responses such as negative Poisson's ratios, mainly through the intertwined deformation attributes of inter-connected members of macro structural forms.

Actuation of Cell Layers in Three Dimensions
ABSTRACT The alignment of fibers and cells in living tissues affect their mechanical properties and functionality. In this context, one can draw an analogy between tissues and nematic liquid crystal elastomers. We explore this analogy by growing fibroblasts on 2D‐patterned substrates and observing the contraction of cell sheets upon detachment from the

Recent developments of auxetic metamaterials
Auxetic metamaterials, characterized by their negative Poisson’s ratio, exhibit unconventional mechanical behaviors such as lateral expansion when stretched and lateral contraction when compressed.

Thermal Conductivity and Tunable Thermal Anisotropy of Magnetic CrSBr Monolayer
Top (left) and side view of single‐layer CrSBr (right). Phonon transport is strongly anisotropic, with a lattice thermal conductivity along the a‐lattice vector which is almost twice the one along the b‐vector (κxx$\kappa _{xx}$ = 1.8 κyy$\kappa _{yy}$). ABSTRACT We present first‐principles calculations of the thermal conductivity, κ${\bm \kappa }$, of

Self‐Expanding Cardiovascular Stents: Potentials and Challenges of Shape Memory Biomaterials
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular diseases affect a large portion of the global population and remain leading causes of morbidity and mortality. Endovascular stenting, a minimally invasive procedure, enables the insertion and deployment of stents to restore arterial patency without open surgery.

An optical method is used for measurements of mechanical properties of foams. The method is based on analysis of diffraction pattern and does not require calibration. The measurements of the stiffness were performed for the conventional and auxetic foams.

ABSTRACT Triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS) constitute a prominent class of cellular structures and have gained considerable attention in current research. These structures are genus‐infinite surfaces with zero mean curvature, which prevents self‐intersection. They also exhibit periodicity in all three spatial directions and exhibit enhanced multi‐
