Mathematical modeling of the radial profile of basilar membrane vibrations in the inner ear [PDF]
Motivated by recent experimental results we seek an explanation of asymmetry in the radial profile of basilar membrane vibrations in the inner ear. We study a sequence of one-dimensional beam models which take into account variations in the bending ...

This study reports lightweight polyetherimide triply periodic minimal surfaces lattices coated with carbon nanotube‐reinforced epoxy that combine mechanical robustness with self‐sensing. The conformal coating enhances stiffness, strength and energy absorption while enabling reliable strain monitoring.

Effect of Chain Stiffness on the Structure of Single-Chain Polymer Nanoparticles [PDF]
Polymeric single-chain nanoparticles (SCNPs) are soft nano-objects synthesized by purely intramolecular cross-linking of single polymer chains. By means of computer simulations, we investigate the conformational properties of SCNPs as a function of the ...

King post truss as a motif for internal structure of (meta)material with controlled elastic properties [PDF]
One of the most interesting challenges in the modern theory of materials consists in the determination of those microstructures which produce, at the macro-level, a class of metamaterials whose elastic range is many orders of magnitude wider than the one

Bioinspired Shape‐Memory Hook Fasteners With Programmable Interlocking and Silent Release
Bioinspired hook fasteners made from epoxy shape‐memory polymers are shown to switch between strong, secure attachment and gentle, silent release when heated. By combining programmable geometry and material response, these adaptive fasteners outperform commercial systems in strength and noise control, enabling new solutions for robotics, medical ...

Effects of antibodies against dynein and tubulin on the stiffness of flagellar axonemes [PDF]
Antidynein antibodies, previously shown to inhibit flagellar oscillation and active sliding of axonemal microtubules, increase the bending resistance of axonemes measured under relaxing conditions, but not the bending resistance of axonemes measured ...
