Steel Construction, EarlyView.Abstract Castellated steel beams, characterised by their unique perforated web design, have gained significant popularity in the construction of medium‐span structures, like industrial and office buildings. These beams offer an economical solution due to their increased bending moment capacity about the major axis with relatively low weight and ...

Compression capacity of closely spaced double‐angle beam‐columns – Impact of joint stiffness
Steel Construction, EarlyView.Abstract Usually, pinned ends are assumed to calculate the compression capacity of closely spaced double‐angle members. In reality, the joints used in practice provide additional rotational restraint at the member's ends, which significantly influence the compression member capacity of such built‐up sections.

Bio‐Inspired Micro‐Fin‐Assisted Multi‐Modal Vascular Intervention
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.A magnetic guidewire with a micro‐fin–integrated tip is introduced for multimodal cardiovascular navigation. The micro‐fins exploit fluid drag to augment magnetic torque, enabling bifurcation traversal at 15 mT, tolerating 45° misalignment, bidirectional crawling, and buckle self‐correction.

Entangled Multistable Origami with Reprogrammable Stiffness Amplification and Damping
Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 5, 15 January 2026.This study introduces a class of origami‐inspired metamaterials that overcome the limitations of existing multistable metamaterials by eliminating the need for rigid lateral confinements. Panel entanglement, snap‐through interactions, and instabilities synergy enable them to achieve extensive shape‐shifting, enhanced stiffness, and remarkable energy ...
