An Investigation into the Grade Dynamics of Drainage Implements [PDF]
, 1985 The use of the trenchless plough drainage implement has increased in the past few years due to its efficiency and cost advantages over other methods. However, the performance of these machines when working in fields with irregular soil conditions is ...

Electrocapillary Modulated Interfacial Tension Amplifies Liquid Metal Transduction
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study presented an electrocapillary‐enhanced magnetohydrodynamic pumping strategy that harnesses the Lorentz force and interfacial tension modulation of liquid metal droplets to achieve amplified fluidic power. The system enabled low‐voltage, self‐oscillating fluidic transduction with enhanced pressure and flow generation, supporting compact ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.The repair and regeneration of brain tissue faces both biological and technical challenges. Injectable bioscaffolds offer new opportunities to stimulate tissue regrowth in the brain by recruiting neural stem cells. Here, the translational issues are reviewed that need to be address to advance this promising new therapeutic approach from the bench to ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A thermo‐responsive poly(2‐oxazoline)‐based injectable formulation is developed to modulate intraocular pressure (IOP) in both normal and hypotonic eyes. By adjusting the PEG content, the aggregation behavior is finely tuned, enabling IOP elevation without long‐term deposition.
