Dual‐Array Nano Configuration for High‐Performance Metastable β Titanium Alloys
This work resolves a fundamental paradox in metastable alloys by establishing a novel dislocation‐phase coupling mechanism, enabling dynamic microstructure control for simultaneous thermal stability and deformability. Geometrically ordered α‐nanograins achieve unprecedented 500°C strength‐ductility synergy (863 MPa UTS, 78.3% elongation).

Ecosystem‐Centered Robot Design: Toward Ecoresorbable Sustainability Robots (ESRs)
Robots exploring natural ecosystems can support monitoring and conservation, but must adopt ecosystem‐centered design to avoid pollution, waste, and damage. This review proposes guidelines for co‐designing ecoresorbable sustainability robots (ESRs), uniting materials, robotics, and ecological contexts in a single framework.
