Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Membrane vesicles derived from the probiotic Lacticaseibacillus casei BL23 demonstrate antimicrobial properties against Escherichia coli and a potential biological effect in improving the overall survival of C. elegans infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. These vesicles stimulated immune responses in primary cells without causing toxicity. Our results

Skid resistance demands of asphalt pavement during the braking process of autonomous vehicles [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2019 As the main operationality of AVs, the braking property is directly related to traffic safety. Major traffic accidents are often related to the braking distance, the side slip and hydroplaning during the emergency braking, which depends on the pavement ...

Are You Used To It Yet? Braking Performance and Adaptation in a Fixed-base Driving Simulator. [PDF]
, 2003 During braking-to-stop manoeuvres in a fixed-base driving simulator, the paucity of visual and vestibular cues can lead to driver misperception and produce different patterns of braking response between real and simulated driving.

A disaster risk assessment model for the conservation of cultural heritage sites in Melaka Malaysia [PDF]
, 2017 There exist ongoing efforts to reduce the exposure of Cultural Heritage Sites (CHSs) to Disaster Risk (DR). However, a complicated issue these efforts face is that of ‘estimation’ whereby no standardised unit exist for assessing the effects of Cultural ...

Adaptive Twisting Metamaterials
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This work introduces torque‐controlled twisting metamaterials as a transformative platform for adaptive crashworthiness. By combining multiscale predictive modeling with experimental validation on additively manufactured gyroids, it demonstrates tunable stiffness, collapse stress, and energy absorption.

Matrix Stiffness Governs Fibroblasts’ Regulation of Gingival Immune Homeostasis
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This study identifies a “mechano‐epigenetic” checkpoint in which matrix stiffness governs the immune responses of gingival fibroblasts. Using biomimetic hydrogels and human gingival explants, the studies revealed that restoring extracellular matrix stiffness actively suppresses inflammation via non‐canonical NF‐κB signaling and DNA methylation ...

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This study introduces a hybrid robot that integrates mechanical assistance by musculoskeletons (i.e., soft pneumatic muscle with rigid exoskeletal extensions), neuromuscular electrical stimulation, and vibrotactile feedback in a lightweight wearable mechatronic complex applicable to the paretic ankle–foot poststroke for gait restoration. The system can
