Elastic Membranes Induce Macrophage-Mediated Pmscs Activation For Bone Regeneration

open access: yesInternational Dental Journal
Aim or purpose: Traditional collagen membranes used in guided bone regeneration (GBR) act only as passive barriers, lacking active bone-regenerative properties.

Ionic Control of Microstructure and Lubrication in Charged, Physically Cross‐Linked Hydrogels

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, charged, physically cross‐linked poly(methacrylamide‐co‐methacrylic acid) hydrogels stabilized by a short‐range attractive, long‐range repulsive potential is investigated. This work uncovers how salt addition alters not only swelling, but also the microstructure and dynamics, near‐surface stiffness and charge, and ultimately, its lubricity. Salts

Proposal of Design Formulae for Equivalent Elasticity of Masonry Structures Made with Bricks of Low Modulus

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2017
Bricks of low elastic modulus are occasionally used in some developing countries, such as Indonesia and India. Most of the previous research efforts focused on masonry structures built with bricks of considerably high elastic modulus.

Biomimetic Iridescent Skin: Robust Prototissues Spontaneously Assembled from Photonic Protocells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Uniform nanoparticles are induced to form arrays (photonic crystals) in the cores of biopolymer capsules, endowing these ‘protocells’ with structural color. These protocells are then assembled into large self‐standing objects, i.e., prototissues, with robust mechanical properties as well as iridescent optical properties.

Deformation behaviour of strain-softening rock mass in tunnels considering deterioration model of elastic modulus

open access: yesGeomechanics and Geophysics for Geo-Energy and Geo-Resources
By analyzing the composite effects of the plastic shear strain and confining stress according to the laboratory test results, a model adopting a deteriorating elastic modulus for the intact rock is proposed.

Anisotropic Shear Properties of Organic Interfaces in Bio‐composite Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A novel cantilever design enables direct probing of shear properties at single organic interfaces within biocomposite prismatic ultrastructures. By decoupling lateral and torsional shear responses, the method reveals isotropic behavior in Atrina vexillum and pronounced anisotropy in Unio pictorum.

Encapsulating Zinc Powder in MXene/Silk Scaffolds with Zincophilic‐Hydrophobic Polymer for Flexible Zinc‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work develops flexible zinc‐ion batteries (FZIBs) using a zincophilic/hydrophobic polymer (thermoplastic polycarbonate‐based polyurethane, TPCU) to protect Zn powder anodes and MXene/Silk (MXS) as flexible current collectors. The designed TPCU‐ZnP@MXS structure enables uniform Zn deposition, yielding dendrite‐free anodes with stable cycling ...

Anisotropy in elastic modulus of fault materials: Insights from the discrete element method

open access: yesAIP Advances
The potential for earthquakes triggered by modulus softening in fault cores has been extensively documented, with a particular emphasis on calculating and characterizing the modulus within fault gouges. Traditionally, the modulus is treated as an average

Mechanical Properties of Architected Polymer Lattice Materials: A Comparative Study of Additive Manufacturing and CAD Using FEM and µ‐CT

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study examines how pore shape and manufacturing‐induced deviations affect the mechanical properties of 3D‐printed lattice materials with constant porosity. Combining µ‐CT analysis, FEM, and compression testing, the authors show that structural imperfections reduce stiffness and strength, while bulk material inhomogeneities probably enhance ...
