Negative‐gauge‐factor materials reverse the usual rule of piezoresistive sensing: their resistance falls, rather than rises, under deformation. This review organizes such behavior into four mechanistic classes spanning intrinsic semiconductors, composites, conducting polymers, and engineered architectures.

Hierarchical Organization of Biomaterials in the Formation of Photonic Nanostructures
Natural organisms create vibrant structural colors through precisely organized nanostructures formed under mild biological conditions. This review explores how cellulose, chitin, corneous beta‐protein, and melanin form complex nanostructures across molecular, mesoscale, and tissue levels.

Updatable Closed‐Form Evaluation of Arbitrarily Complex Multiport Network Connections
The inverse design of electrically large wave devices often uses reduced‐order multiport models with discrete optimization, requiring many evaluations of complex interconnections between subsystems that differ only in a few blocks. This paper introduces a closed‐form framework enabling efficient Woodbury low‐rank updates of related, previous ...

Nonlinear Dynamics and Invariants of Motion in ReRAM Cells
A second‐order cell, hosting one capacitor and two back‐to‐back ReRAMs, admits Invariants of Motion: its states lie on one‐dimensional manifolds at all times. The cell shows quiescent monostability or bistability, depending on the manifold index. At equilibrium, the capacitor voltage vanishes.

Lumped modeling of bubbling fluidized beds for high‐temperature processes
Abstract Bubbling fluidized beds (BFBs) have been a source of study for multiple decades. Among other applications, they can be used as scalable reactors for the conversion of biomass and waste resources to fuels. Several experimental and computational studies have been devoted to correlating the interplay of hydrodynamics and heat and mass transfer in

Experimental and numerical study of liquid–liquid systems using the Euler–Lagrange/VOF approach
Abstract Achieving stable liquid–liquid dispersions with controlled droplet size remains a challenge due to the complex interplay of dispersed phase viscosity, hydrodynamic conditions and interfacial interactions. This work presents a validated computational framework for droplet breakage and coalescence in liquid–liquid dispersions with variable ...
