State of the Art in Multi-Stage Energy-Dissipating Dampers and Their Seismic Performance

Buildings
Dampers are key energy-dissipating components in structural seismic systems. They can effectively dissipate seismic energy, control structural dynamic responses, and mitigate damage to primary structural members.

Functional Blood‐Brain Barrier Crossing by Biomimetic M13 Phage Vectors for Targeted Neuronal Delivery

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the M13 bacteriophage as a biomimetic nanovector capable of crossing in vitro models of the blood–brain barrier. By exploiting peculiar transcellular pathways, M13 avoids lysosomal degradation and preserves its structural integrity and functionality.

Immunoinflammatory Mechanisms and Biocompatibility of Bioactive Dental Biomaterials: From Fundamental Insights to Clinical Translation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Surface‐host dialogue at the implant interface governs biological fate and osseointegration. Surface physicochemical properties of titanium (Ti) dental implants, including microgrooves, nanopatterns, nanotopography, roughness, and wettability, modulate the initial adsorption of proteins and the formation of a dynamic biointerface.

Modelling and design of a dual channel magnetorheological damper [PDF]

, 2013
© Cranfield UniversityA limitation with the current analytical models for predicting the performance of a magnetorheological (MR) damper is that they fail to capture the hysteretic variation of force versus velocity variation correctly.

Microsphere‐Templated Conductive Syntactic Foams for Recyclable and Additively Manufactured Soft Electronics

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a microsphere‐templated strategy to fabricate reprocessable PEDOT:PSS syntactic foams with tunable porosity, stable conductivity, and 3D printability. In situ PEDOT:PSS coatings create a conductive network that maintains electrical performance at high void fractions.

Nonlinear inertial amplifier liquid column dampers [PDF]

Conventional Tuned Liquid Column Dampers effectively mitigate structural vibrations; however, their efficacy is limited by the need for supplementary static mass, which escalates costs and complicates adaptability.

Cellular Responses to Mechanical Cues Across Scales: From Fundamental Insights to Translational Potential

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines how cellular behavior is regulated by mechanical cues transmitted through soft biomaterials, from single‐cell mechanosensing to tissue‐level adaptation. It highlights why physiological relevance, rather than model complexity alone, is critical for translational mechanobiology and introduces a scoring framework linking material ...

Applications of vertical steel pipe dampers for seismic response reduction of steel moment frames

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
A newly developed vertical steel pipe damper is introduced to improve the seismic performance of steel moment frames. The damper exhibits large lateral stiffness and excellent capability to dissipate energy due to earthquakes.
