Architected Load Paths Enable Stiffening and Motion Programming in Soft Pneumatic Actuators

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A single MARS template introduces an architected reinforcement strategy for programmable soft pneumatic actuators through internal structural organization and selective beam removal. This monolithic architecture enables deformation reconfiguration from continuous bending to joint‐like articulation and torsional motion, allowing one compliant platform ...

Q‐LEAP: Millisecond Hyperdimensional Optimization for Full‐Spectrum Optical Metamaterials

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Q‐LEAP integrates physics‐informed residual machine learning with factorization‐machine‐encoded quantum annealing to design full‐spectrum optical metamaterials. It explores a 2108 design space and, in a single 2.56 ms annealing step, reaches 85.83% of the theoretical FoM limit, enabling selective 5‐8 µm emission with 3–5 and 8–14 µm suppression and ∼40×

Nonlinear Ion‐Specific Control of Underwater Adhesion by Bottlebrush Polymer Interfaces

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The efficiency of underwater adhesion is modulated by ion‐specific effects. Strongly hydrated Na+ remains separated from the mica surface by its hydration shell, preserving access to binding sites, whereas weakly hydrated K+ can partially dehydrate and occupy ditrigonal cavities.

Damage Assessment of RC Beam–Column Joints via Digital Image Correlation and Fractal Dimension Analysis

Buildings
Beam–column joints are critical elements in reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures. They are subjected to complicated load mechanisms in the event of earthquakes, which often leads to non-ductile damage in the form of shear cracking failure and ...
