Breaking the Surface: Buoyant Metal–Polymer Open–Cell Hybrid Lattice Metamaterials
Open‐cell metal–polymer lattice metamaterials that defy sinking. (a) Injection process of the polyurethane (PU) foam into the titanium (Ti‐6Al‐4V) hollow‐strut lattice creating the open‐cell Ti‐6Al‐4V+PU hybrid lattice, (b) flotation test of a hybrid lattice specimen, and (c) a digital representation and experimental validation of a marine buoy ...

Subsurface melting of nylon by friction-induced vibrations [PDF]
Dry sliding of nylon on steel may lead to subsurface recrystallization of the polymer. This phenomenon is described and explained by subsurface melting due to internal heating as a result of the dissipation of frictioninduced vibrations at frequencies above 10 kHz.

This study demonstrates the combination of magnetic nanoparticles and functional blowing agents into supraparticles. Upon induction heating, they actuate via rapid gas generation or extensive volume expansion. These supraparticles lift up to 25 000 times their own mass and rapidly open cured epoxy resins, providing a versatile strategy for fast micron ...

Strongly adhered cells align with concentric circular ridges and exhibit predominantly tangential motion, whereas weakly adhered cells fail to follow topographical guidance and display enhanced radial inward motion. ABSTRACT Living cells establish long‐range orientational order through collective alignment, giving rise to topological defects whose ...
