eEF1G Orchestrates Translation to Ensure Meiotic Progression in Transcriptionally Quiescent Spermatocytes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
eEF1G supports translation elongation of meiotic mRNAs in transcriptionally quiescent leptotene and zygotene spermatocytes. Its depletion in germ cells causes meiotic arrest at the zygotene stage, with defective homologous synapsis and unstable recombination intermediates.

Bioinspired Passive Flow Routing to Mitigate Thrombosis in Prosthetic Heart Valves and Cardiovascular Devices

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bioinspired passive flow routing mitigates thrombosis in cardiovascular devices by redirecting a small fraction of forward flow into stagnation‐prone regions. Inspired by avian alula and aircraft slat mechanisms, strategically placed routing channels restore washout around mechanical heart valves, reducing low‐shear exposure by four orders of magnitude

Effect of fuel injection rate shapes on mixture formation and combustion characteristic in a free-piston diesel engine generator

Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2018
The free-piston engine generator is a new power machinery, which removes the crank-shaft mechanism. This article aims to study the impact of different injection rate shapes (left triangle, rectangle, and right triangle) on the free-piston engine ...

Kresling Origami‐Based Metamaterial Robot for Dynamic Electromagnetic Control

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A reconfigurable metamaterial system integrates deformable origami units with high‐permittivity ceramic plates. Pneumatic switching between structural states alters local resonance conditions, enabling dynamic radar stealth and adaptive microwave reflection for mobile communication.

Absorption of Broadband Low‐Frequency Sound Beyond the Thermodynamics Limit: An Acoustic Resonator With Magnetic Bearing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a magnetic‐bearing acoustic resonator that overcomes the thermodynamics limit of sound absorption. By introducing tunable negative stiffness, it achieves broadband low‐frequency absorption within a compact cavity, far exceeding the performance achievable by classic mass‐tuned designs.

Improved Direct Ink Writing of Liquid Metal Foams via Liquid Additives

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
The ability to pattern liquid metal is useful for making soft electrical and thermal devices. Dispensing liquid metal from a nozzle naturally results in the formation of spheroidal droplets, making direct‐write printing challenging. Liquid metal foams containing pockets of air can extrude as filaments, albeit inconsistently.

Resonant Combustion Start Considering Potential Energy of Free-Piston Engine Generator

Energies, 2020
Free-piston engine generators without a crank mechanism are expected to be used in series hybrid vehicles because of their lower losses. The series hybrid system requires a low starting thrust because the engine frequently starts depending on the battery
