A Recursive, Distributed Minimum Spanning Tree Algorithm for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks [PDF]

, 2014
We introduce a recursive (“anytime”) distributed algorithm that iteratively restructures any initial spanning tree of a weighted graph towards a minimum spanning tree while guaranteeing at each successive step a spanning tree shared by all nodes that is ...

Active Learning‐Driven Discovery of Sub‐2 Nm High‐Entropy Nanocatalysts for Alkaline Water Splitting

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
High‐entropy nanoparticles (HENPs) hold great promise for electrocatalysis, yet optimizing their compositions remains challenging. This study employs active learning and Bayesian Optimization to accelerate the discovery of octonary HENPs for hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions.

Conformally Perforated Shellular Metamaterials with Tunable Thermomechanical and Acoustic Properties

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces Conformally Perforated Shellular Metamaterials (CPSMs), which overcome TPMS design limitations by mapping 2D cellular layouts onto 3D surfaces. CPSMs exhibit enhanced elastic stiffness, thermal conductivity, and acoustic performance compared to intact P‐type shellulars, demonstrating their potential as multifunctional ...

Unlock the Walnut: How a Pectin‐Rich Suture Tissue and Moisture‐Driven Crack Formation Induce Shell Splitting and Facilitate Seed Germination

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Walnut seeds are enclosed in a remarkably strong shell made of sclerenchyma, separated by a pectin‐rich suture tissue. Different cell shapes and chemical composition of this tissue point to an opening mechanism, which is triggered by cyclic humidity changes.

Distributed Control Algorithms for Nonholonomic Mobile Robots With Time-Varying Position Constraints and Event-Triggered Communication

IEEE Access
In this paper, the consensus problem of multiple nonholonomic mobile robots is addressed under event-triggered communication. It is assumed that the position of each robot is subject to generic time-varying constraints, and that the communication graph ...

Vorticity‐Facilitated Platelet Aggregation: a High Expansion‐Ratio Stenotic Microfluidic Platform Unravels the Role of Complex Flow Dynamics in Arterial Thrombosis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study reveals how vorticity—a swirling flow pattern—enhances platelet aggregation and thrombus formation in high‐shear conditions. Using a custom microfluidic model, it is shows that vorticity promotes vWF–GPIbα interactions and calcium signaling, providing new insights into thrombosis mechanobiology and informing safer blood‐contacting medical ...
