Thermally Responsive Architected Actuators with Programmable Shape Morphing and Tunable Stiffness

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A tunable‐stiffness architected morphing structure enables programmable shape transformation and load‐bearing functionality through thermal activation. By tessellating rigid particles with shape memory alloy‐based soft connectors, the system achieves simultaneous morphing and stiffness modulation.

Symmetry Breaking Metamaterial Sleeve Actuators

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Metamaterial sleeves are designed to impart to a soft inflatable structure, nonlinear characteristics within the pressure–volume domain. By tuning the unit cells of the metamaterial sleeve, symmetry breaking is achieved during the inflation–deflation cycle.

Supramolecular Chalcogen‐Bonded Shape Memory Actuators

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Supramolecular chalcogen‐bonded liquid crystal elastomers incorporating Se⋯N interactions exhibit distinct shape memory and actuation properties. Stronger Se⋯N ChBs enable programmable one‐way and two‐way SME, while weaker S⋯N ChBs fail to induce actuation.
