Torque‐Transmitting Architected Metamaterials for Flexible and Extendable Tubular Robotics

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Soft and continuum robots commonly rely on fluid, tendon, or rod‐based power transmissions, to control robotic form and actuation. This study presents an architected structure, based on patterned straight‐line mechanisms, that enables simultaneous bending, extending, and torsionally rigid (BETR) transmission.

AI‐Driven Predictive Design and Functionalization of Three Dimensional‐Printed PEEK Implants with Tryptophan‐Enriched Alginate Hydrogel for Enhanced Biomimetic Surface Performance

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study introduces an AI‐guided strategy to design 3D‐printed PEEK implants functionalized with a tryptophan‐enriched alginate hydrogel (TRYALPEEK). The modification improves hydrophilicity, reduces surface roughness, enhances cytocompatibility, and optimizes stress distribution. The platform offers a promising route for personalized implant design,

A Dual‐Ion Multiphysics Model for Smart and Sustainable Sensors Based on Bacterial Cellulose

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Bacterial cellulose (BC), functionalized with ionic liquids (ILs) and conductive polymers, offers promise for sustainable sensor applications. To enable real‐world integration, this work presents the first dual‐carrier, multiphysics white‐box model of mechanoelectric transduction in BC–IL sensors, combining mechanical deformation and ion transport ...

Soft Artificial Ciliary Brush with Integrated Haptic Feedback for Efficient Airway Mucus Cleaning

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A fundamental mucus cleaning mechanism is reported, which utilizes both artificial cilia mechanical sweeping and suction‐based mucus cleaning. A novel haptic feedback interface for the artificial cilia provides touch feedback on tissue contact, enhancing operator control and safety.

An Exploratory Study on Graphene‐Based Hybrid Epoxy Coatings for Corrosion Resistance and Self‐Healing

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Corrosion of metallic process equipment in chemical, marine, and offshore industries leads to significant maintenance costs and safety concerns. Conventional epoxy coatings, though widely applied, often deteriorate under harsh conditions due to microcracking, moisture ingress and lack of self‐healing capability.

In‐vitro puncture experiment using alligator teeth tracks the formation of dental microwear and its association with hardness of the diet

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract With the development of dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA), there has been an increasing application of DMTA for dietary estimation in extant and fossil reptiles, including dinosaurs. While numerous feeding experiments exist for herbivorous mammals, knowledge remains limited for carnivorous reptiles. This study aimed to qualitatively and
