Beyond Conventional Cooling: Advanced Micro/Nanostructures for Managing Extreme Heat Flux

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines the design, application, and manufacturing of biomimetic or engineered micro/nanostructures for managing high heat‐flux in multi‐level electronics by enhancing conductive, convective, phase‐changing, and radiative heat transfer mechanisms, highlighting their potential for efficient, targeted thermal management, and future prospects.

The effect of ring distortions on buckling of blunt conical shells [PDF]

open access: yes
A rigorous analytical study of cones stiffened by many thin-gage, open-section rings is presented. The results are compared with data previously obtained from uniform pressure tests of the Viking mission flight aeroshell and of the Viking structural ...

Microbubble Shell Stiffness Engineering Enhances Ultrasound Imaging, Drug Delivery, and Sonoporation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
 Shell‐engineered poly(alkyl cyanoacrylate) microbubbles with tunable stiffness improve ultrasound imaging and therapy. Adjusting the length of the alkyl chain and the glass transition temperature maintains a narrow microbubble size distribution while enhancing drug loading, sonoporation and the acoustic response.

Critical Thickness Ratio for Buckled and Wrinkled Fruits and Vegetables

open access: yes, 2013
Fruits and vegetables are usually composed of exocarp and sarcocarp and they take a variety of shapes when they are ripe. Buckled and wrinkled fruits and vegetables are often observed. This work aims at establishing the geometrical constraint for buckled

Cell‐Stress‐Free Percutaneous Bioelectrodes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A structurally adaptive soft microneedle bioelectrode is developed with an effervescent sacrificial core that dissolves after insertion, leaving an ultrathin and highly compliant electrode integrated with skin. This design enables ultra‐flexible, cell‐stress‐free, stable, and high‐fidelity electrophysiological monitoring under dynamic conditions such ...

Dynamic buckling and fragmentation in brittle rods

open access: yes, 2004
We present experiments on the dynamic buckling and fragmentation of slender rods axially impacted by a projectile. By combining the results of Saint-Venant and elastic beam theory, we derive a preferred wavelength lambda for the buckling instability, and

Remorphable Architectures: Reprogramming Global Bistability through Locally Bistable Metamaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Local bistable reconfiguration in mechanical metamaterials is leveraged in globally bistable architectures to enable in situ reprogrammable transition pathways through state flip of individual building blocks. The local‐to‐global correspondence of instabilities empowers soft robotic systems with on‐demand morphing traits, as well as aerospace ...

Buckling modes and failure of test specimens from fiber-reinforced composites with a [0∘]s layup under axial compression. Theory and experiment

open access: yesУчёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Физико-математические науки
The analytical solutions for the problems of macroscale flexural-shear and purely transverse-shear buckling modes of test specimens made of fiber-reinforced composites with a [0∘]s layup (s denoting the number of laminas) were analyzed, as well as the ...

Physical Intelligence in Small‐Scale Robots and Machines

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
“Physical intelligence” (PI) empowers biological organisms and artificial machines, especially at the small scales, to perceive, adapt, and even reshape their complex, dynamic, and unstructured operation environments. This review summarizes recent milestones and future directions of PI in small‐scale robots and machines.
