Functional and Network PHAs via Stereoselective Polymerization and Tailored Post‐Transformation
Catalyst‐controlled stereoselective (co)polymerization of functionalized lactones produces vinyl‐, allyl‐, and propargyl‐functionalized PHAs with high syndiotacticity and a broad applicable temperature window, which can be further transformed into crosslinked PHA thermosets, elastic supramolecular networks, and functional grafts.

Natural Aging of Biomaterials in Ambient and Physiological Environments
Biomaterials used in biomedical applications can change their physical properties over time, even under ambient and physiological conditions. This review highlights key studies on the natural aging of materials ranging from soft hydrogels to metals and ceramics, emphasizing how time‐dependent changes influence function and performance.

Creep: time‐dependent brittle deformation in rocks
The characterization of time‐dependent brittle rock deformation is fundamental to understanding the long‐term evolution and dynamics of the Earth’s crust. The chemical influence of pore water promotes time‐dependent deformation through stress corrosion

Transition of ductile and brittle fracture during DWTT by FEM
Globally, steel pipelines are widely used to transport energy in the form of liquid petroleum and natural gas. The steel used in the manufacture of these pipelines must have high strength and toughness, and high resistance to fracture.
