Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This paper introduces an origami‐inspired, lightweight, reconfigurable instrument for robot‐assisted minimally invasive surgery. Its foldable design enables tiny access, tunable compliance, and multifunctionality, serving as a tool introducer or deformable grasper that safely manipulates delicate bowel tissue.

The effect of temperature changes on to quasi-static tensile and flexural performance of glass fibre reinforced PA66 composites [PDF]
, 2013 A significant method of reducing CO2 emissions in road vehicles is to reduce the vehicle mass. One means in which this can be achieved is to adopt lightweight materials such as thermoplastic composites.

Nanoclay‐Engineered Scaffolds for the Controlled Delivery of Biomolecules in Regenerative Medicine
Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Regenerative medicine combines biomaterials, cells, scaffolds, and bioactive agents via modern technologies to aid in the reconstruction and repair of damaged tissues. Among these, nanoclay scaffolds have demonstrated unique advantages in facilitating the delivery of therapeutic agents.

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.Surface functionalization of polypropylene macrofibers to enhance fiber‐matrix interfacial bonding. ABSTRACT Concrete is the most used higher compressive strength‐building material, albeit brittle to tensile, and flexural loads. Polypropylene (PP) synthetic polymeric macrofibres are commonly employed as reinforcement material to prevent this situation ...

Helmeted hornbill cranial kinesis: Balancing mobility and stability in a high‐impact joint
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Prokinesis—in which a craniofacial joint allows the rostrum to move relative to the braincase—is thought to confer diverse advantages in birds, mostly for feeding. A craniofacial joint would, however, be a weak link if cranial stability is important. Paradoxically, we have identified a craniofacial joint in helmeted hornbills (Rhinoplax vigil),

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.An expandable‐thickness graphene block (GPB) with high thermal conductivity synthesized through multiscale blending and multistage pressure induction (MBP) achieves a record thickness of 12.1 mm, which is more than 10 times that of existing graphene materials. The maximum thermal diffusion ability of GPB‐MBP reaches 6.3 W/K, which offers a new approach

Effect of the additive concentration on the modification of petroleum coke and anode quality
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract Calcined petroleum coke is one of the major raw materials for anode manufacturing, which is used as the carbon source in electrolytic cells for primary aluminium production. It constitutes around 65%–70% of the anode recipe. Therefore, the quality of calcined coke has an important impact on anode quality, which affects the cost, energy ...
