Adaptable Tile‐Based Pneumatic Origami through Structurally Coupled Localized Actuation

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 5, 4 March 2026.
This article presents tile‐based pneumatic origami structures with rigid tiles and flexible fabric creases, achieving adaptable properties including morphing shape, selective multistability, and tunable stiffness. Independently pressurized folding bladders at each crease enable structurally coupled localized actuation of origami structures.

Wearable Metamaterials with Embodied Intelligence for Programmable Control of Human Limbs Tremor

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
Resulting from alternating muscle contractions, tremors can severely limit human ability to perform everyday tasks like walking or talking, due to their disruptive nature. Medication and surgery may not always effectively address tremor control. A wearable device embodying programmable smart metamaterials with adaptable intelligence to meet the demand ...

Self‐Lubricating and Surface‐State‐Modulated p‐p Heterojunction for Robust In Situ Sensing and Deep Learning‐Enabled Condition Identification

SmartSys, Volume 2, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The rapid expansion of Internet of things (IoT) and cyber‐physical systems presents a formidable challenge for sustainably powering massive numbers of distributed sensors. Friction, a ubiquitous phenomenon typically viewed as a source of energy dissipation, offers a novel avenue for energy harvesting and in situ sensing.
