Liquid Crystalline Elastomers in Soft Robotics: Assessing Promise and Limitations

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) are programmable soft materials that undergo large, anisotropic deformation in response to external stimuli. Their molecular alignment encodes directional actuation in a monolithic structure, making them long‐standing candidates for soft robotic systems.

Time‐Dependent Therapeutic Effect of S‐Ketamine on PTSD Mediated by VTA‐OFC Dopaminergic Neurocircuit

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that early rather than late administration of S‐ketamine can ameliorate PTSD symptoms. This phenomenon is attributed to reversing the progressive inhibition of VTADA neurons and the function of VTADA‐OFC circuit following stress. Targeted stimulation of the OFC by TI‐NIBS to enhance DA release effectively extends the therapeutic time

Bioinspired Twisted Artificial Muscles with Enhanced Performance for Underwater Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A climbing plant‐inspired twisted artificial muscle (TAM) with a braided configuration and seal‐inspired thermal insulation enables high‐performance underwater actuation. Enhanced deformation, reduced heat dissipation, and rapid motion are validated through a bionic ray that exhibits straight and turning motions.

Vinyl Acetate‐Enhanced Polyvinyl Chloride Gel with High Electroadhesion and Self‐Heating‐Tunability for Soft Robots in Freezing Environments

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a vinyl acetate‐enhanced electroactive polyvinyl chloride gel with low‐voltage deformation, strong electro‐adhesion, and controlled heating. Leveraging these synergistic properties, this work develops soft robots capable of fast locomotion, swarm reconfiguration, and low‐temperature operation (‐50°C).

Mechanism‐Aware Digital Twin for High‐Temperature Creep Prediction in Mo–Re Alloys

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A digital twin framework enables real‐time monitoring of creep in refractory alloys and reveals dislocation‐drag‐induced Re segregation to grain boundaries. Inspired by this, La2O3 dispersion is introduced to suppress dislocation motion — concurrently mitigating Re segregation and enhancing creep resistance.
