Photoswitchable Conductive Metal–Organic Frameworks
A conductive material where the conductivity can be modulated remotely by irradiation with light is presented. It is based on films of conductive metal–organic framework type Cu3(HHTP)2 with embedded photochromic molecules such as azobenzene, diarylethene, spiropyran, and hexaarylbiimidazole in the pores.

Morphy: A Compliant and Morphologically Aware Flying Robot
This study presents Morphy, a 25.2 cm‐wide, 260 g aerial robot with flexible, sensorized joints that enable it to withstand high‐speed collisions and squeeze through narrow spaces. Powered by an adaptive control scheme exploiting real‐time morphology feedback, Morphy demonstrates resilience in trajectory tracking, collision, and impact recovery and ...

4D Printing of Composite Thermoplastic Elastomers for Super‐Stretchable Soft Artificial Muscles
ABSTRACT This study explores the development of soft, super‐stretchable artificial muscles by 4D printing of composite thermoplastic elastomers. A propylene‐based elastomer, combined with carbon black (CB) nanoparticles, is utilized to develop nanocomposite elastomers with enhanced mechanical properties.

Dynamics of pyroclastic density currents : : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Earth Sciences at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Listed in 2016 Dean's List of Exceptional ThesesPyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are the most dangerous mass flows on Earth. Yet they remain poorly understood because internal measurements and observations are hitherto non-existent.
