Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 16, 19 August 2026.A flexure‐based variable stiffness structure is developed by integrating phase‐change modulation and adhesive interfacial locking of gallium. The design enables a wide stiffness variability, transitioning from soft, flexible behavior to rigid, load‐supporting performance.

Blow-up phenomena for a damped wave equation with logarithmic source term and variable-exponents [PDF]
Theoretical and Applied MechanicsThis paper investigates the wave equation with variable-exponent nonlinearity and logarithmic source term, given by the following: utt − Δu + $ aut|ut|^{m(・)−2} $ = $ bu|u|^{p(・)−2} $ ln |u|, where a and b are positive constants, and the functions m(・)

Possible Mechanisms of String Formation in Complex Plasmas at Elevated Pressures
Molecules, 2021 Possible mechanisms of particle attraction providing formation of the field aligned microparticle strings in complex plasmas at elevated gas pressures are theoretically investigated in the light of the Plasmakristall-4 (PK-4) experiment on board the ...

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 44, 7 August 2026.Magnetic particles are organized into layered architectures by combining shear flow and magnetic fields, with the resulting structures governed by appropriate Mason numbers. The programmed assemblies provide spatial guidance for cell placement, linking field‐controlled self‐assembly, flow‐induced structuring and biological organization.

A systematic study of the dynamics of chain formation in electrorheological fluids
AIP Advances, 2021 We report a systematic study of the dynamics of chain formation in electrorheological fluids using Brownian dynamics simulations. The parameters of the system such as applied electric field, polarizability, dipole moment, friction coefficient, and number

Continuum modelling of electrorheological fluids
Electrorheological Fluids and Magnetorheological Suspensions, 2002 A thermodynamical continuum modelling is proposed for electrorheological fluids. This theormodynamical approach tries to describe the response of an electrorheological fluid in the solid phase (which means with an applied adequate electric field) under mechanical solicitations. Thermodynamic formulations distinguish the contributions due to reversible

Microfluidic Valve‐Integrated Garment for Smooth Sequential Gradient Mechanotherapy
Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.We present a soft wearable sleeve that delivers smooth, gap‐free compression using overlapping air‐filled actuators and tiny microfluidic valves. The system reduces bulk, lowers power needs, and uses a smartphone‐sized control box. It can provide sequential gradient compression, gradient pressure holding, and fast deflation, supporting more portable ...

Self‐improving property for certain degenerate functionals with generalized Orlicz growth
Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract We investigate a self‐improving property of variational integrals in a weighted framework under generalized Orlicz growth conditions. Assuming that the weight belongs to an appropriate Muckenhoupt class and the growth function satisfies standard structural conditions, we prove that the gradient of any local quasi‐minimizer has local higher ...
