Electro‐Thermally Controlled Active Mechanical Metamaterials with Programmable Stiffness and Nonreciprocity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Actively programmable mechanical metamaterial, featuring smart conductive polymers, designed instabilities, and compliant mechanisms. Capable of stiffness switching, local surface pressure modulation, and nonreciprocal shear relationships that allow local shielding from surface traction. Potential applications in soft robotic grippers and smart medical

Mechanotransduction in Shaping Immunity: Pathways, Crosstalk, and Pathophysiological Relevance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review comprehensively summarizes the role of mechanotransduction in shaping immunity. It details how immune cells respond to biomechanical cues via mechanotransduction cascades and emphasizes the mechanical crosstalks within the immune microenvironment. The emerging significance of mechanoimmunology in both health and diseases is also highlighted.

Foldable Soft Leg‐Assisted Wheel Robot

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Recently, soft robots garner attention for designing the robotic legs of mobile robots due to their characteristic lightness, tunability, and simple control. Here, a novel soft foldable leg capable of high stiffness and deformability is identified as an assistant for enhancing the locomotion capabilities of a wheel mobile robot.

Pre‐Torsion Tubular Metamaterials: Multi‐Effect Integration for Advanced Functional Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Through a pre‐torsion design paradigm, the authors design and fabricate a class of multi‐effect mechanical metamaterial that synergistically integrates compression‐torsion and auxetic behaviors over an extensive strain range, and their formation mechanisms are quantitatively analyzed and elucidated via experiments and finite element methods.
