Coordinated Architectural and Chemical Reinforcement in the Crushing Mandible of a Soldier Termite

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The crushing mandible of a soldier termite withstands substantial biting loads despite lacking mineral. Its cuticle is partitioned: convex teeth pair hardness and zinc enrichment with aligned chitin fibers for contact durability, while stiffer concave regions between teeth carry bending loads.

Representations for the Procedural Content Generation of Puzzle Game Instances: A Systematic Literature Review

open access: yesIEEE Access
Procedural Content Generation (PCG) is the use of automatic techniques to create content for games, varying from the generation of fundamental units such as textures or sound to complex environments and entire games.

Analog Classification of Human Hand Gestures Exploiting Dendritic Integration With an Organic Artificial Soma

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An organic neuromorphic architecture for the classification of human motor behavior is presented and validated. It performs somatic integration by linearly combining the activity from three muscles. An investigation of synaptic weights is presented and discussed in relationship with the classification performance.

Hydrogel‐Based Method for High‐Resolution Measurements of Contact Mechanics in Rapid Biological Adhesives: A Case Study in Cuttlefish Tentacle Strikes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cuttlefish and squid can catch their prey within milliseconds using specialized tentacles and suckers. The physics of how the suckers can attach so quickly has remained a mystery given the technical challenges of studying them in vivo. In this publication, we develop a hydrogel that retains imprints of the suckers in order to estimate the forces they ...

Anti‐Inflammatory and Neuroactive Effects of Polymer‐Coated Iron Oxide Nanoparticles Functionalized With Interleukin 4 for Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Polymer‐coated IONPs functionalized with IL‐4 display respective neuroactive and anti‐inflammatory actions on neural progenitor cells and macrophages/microglia in vitro. When examined chronically in a rat experimental model of spinal cord injury, rGO scaffolds carrying these nanosystems adequately integrate into the lesion, significantly reduce ...

Artemisinin‐Loaded Core‐Shell Microspheres Modulate Histone Lactylation to Remodel the Microenvironment for Cartilage Protection in Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
ART@PLGA@GH‐A microspheres are developed via microfluidic technology for intra‐articular delivery of artemisinin. The system remodels rheumatoid arthritis microenvironments by regulating metabolic and inflammatory disorders, reducing lactate‐driven histone lactylation and cellular senescence, while restoring cartilage homeostasis and protecting joint ...

Using Effective State Representations and Search to Identify Interesting Safari Rush Hour Puzzle Instances

open access: yesIEEE Access
Players find solving puzzle game instances engaging, but have no incentive to replay them once they are solved. Additionally, puzzle games often present vast search spaces that are impractical to explore exhaustively.

Descriptor‐Informed Screening of Interface‐Active Molecules for Efficient Magnesium Metal Anodes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A descriptor‐informed molecular screening strategy identifies 4‐bromo‐N, N‐dimethylaniline (BrNNA) as an interface‐active electrolyte component that enables fast Mg stripping/plating in Mg(TFSI)2‐based electrolytes. By simultaneously regulating Mg2+ solvation and interphase formation, the BrNNA‐containing electrolyte delivers activation‐free Mg ...
