Development of Heat Engines Powered by Twisted and Coiled Polymer Fiber Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Continuously rotating engines driven by thermally responsive actuating materials can turn waste heat into useful energy. For the first time heat engines operated by twisted and coiled polymer fiber actuators are demonstrated with engine design guided by two simple analytical models.

Lefschetz formula for nonlocal elliptic problems associated with fibration

open access: yesСовременная математика: Фундаментальные направления
Elliptic operator complexes associated with fibration are considered. The Atiyah-Bott-Lefschetz formula for endomorphisms of such complexes is given. The proof is based on the stationary phase method.

3D‐Printed Dynamic Heart Model With Left‐Side Anatomy and Integrated Sensor for Edge‐to‐Edge Repair and Regurgitation Reduction

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This work presents a fully synthetic, 3D‐printed dynamic heart model with left‐side anatomy featuring sutured mitral valve chordae tendineae analogs, embedded actuators for physiologic wall contraction, and customized flexible pressure sensors for the left ventricle.

Semistable degenerations of Calabi–Yau manifolds and mirror P=W conjectures

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma
Mirror symmetry for a semistable degeneration of a Calabi–Yau manifold was first investigated by Doran–Harder–Thompson when the degenerate fiber is a union of two quasi-Fano manifolds.

Beyond Brown: Lignin's Emerging Role in Structural Color

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Lignin, long regarded as a brown industrial byproduct, is emerging as a sustainable platform for structural color. This Perspective highlights how lignin's refractive index, intrinsic absorption, and nanoscale assembly enable tunable photonic responses in colloidal and thin‐film architectures, and outlines design strategies to advance scalable, bio ...

UTact: Underwater Vision‐Based Tactile Sensor with Geometry Reconstruction and Contact Force Estimation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Embedded flexible sensing technologies advance underwater soft robotics, yet most systems still suffer from hysteresis and limited perceptiveness. Instead, vision‐based tactile sensors provide reliable and rapid feedback essential for complex underwater tasks.

A Multidirectional Textile Interface for Remote Control Using Dynamic Area‐Based Capacitance Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Here, we present a textile, wearable capacitive interface enabling multidirectional remote control by dynamically modulating electrode overlap and spacing via a freely gliding upper electrode. A forearm‐mounted prototype drives robotic and media tasks with 12–15 ms latency, maintains < 0.8% drift after 500 cycles, and remains stably functional at 90 ...

F-theory with hyperelliptic fibrations

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We discuss the role of hyperelliptic fibrations in F-theory. For each even integer n we give a noncompact Calabi-Yau threefold X containing a hyperelliptically fibered surface Y, such that X and Y are homotopy equivalent and c 2(X) = n.
