A water‐activated phospholipid phase‐separation gel is repurposed as a drug‐free surgical barrier for postoperative adhesion prevention. Propylene glycol promotes rapid lamellar gel reinforcement, prolonged local retention, and tissue coverage, while phosphatidylcholine‐mediated immunomodulation suppresses inflammatory and fibrotic responses. This dual‐

A Geometrically Transient Platform for Bioelectronic Implants
Minimally invasive bioelectronic implants often compromise performance for smaller sizes. To resolve this optimization dilemma, a wireless bioelectronic implant with a transient geometry is introduced (MiFi). The origami‐inspired device miniaturizes up to sixfold for syringe insertion and autonomously unfolds post‐implantation.

Nano‐Architected Metallic Metamaterial With Enhanced Fatigue Resistance via Dislocation Starvation
Nanoscale Ni single crystals exhibit remarkable fatigue resistance over an order of magnitude higher than that of bulk single crystals through dislocation starvation. By translating this mechanism into geometric nano‐architecture, nano‐architected Ni single‐crystal metamaterials achieve about twice the fatigue resistance of the bulk, despite their ...

A Subspace Method for Modal Identification of Bladed Assemblies Using Blade Tip-Timing Data
Unknown excitation forces are applied to bladed disk assemblies, such as turbines blades, leading to forced vibration responses. Non contact measurement of such vibrations using blade tip-timing data has become an industrial standard procedure and current research focuses on analysis methods for interpretation of measured vibrations.

Turbomachinery blade vibration amplitude measurement through tip timing with capacitance tip clearance probes [PDF]
Turbomachinery blade vibrations can cause High Cycle Fatigue, which reduces blade life. In order to observe this vibration a nonintrusive monitoring system is sought. The vibration can be detected by measuring blade tip timing since in the presence of
