Synergistic Microcrack Engineering and Auxetic Metamaterials for Enhanced Sensitivity in Stretchable Strain Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A highly sensitive crack‐based piezoresistive strain sensor is developed using a biaxially pre‐stretched multi‐walled carbon nanotubes/Ecoflex composite and integrated with auxetic metamaterials. Biaxial pre‐stretching improves the sensitivity by 56% compared to the uniaxially pre‐stretched strain sensor.

A Proof‐of‐Concept Assessment of a Novel Wearable Eyelid Muscle Device: A Pre‐Clinical Animal Cadaver Study for Eyelid Closure Restoration

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article introduces a soft wearable eyelid sling device incorporating a hydraulic soft artificial muscle (SAM) for achieving complete closure of an eyelid. The SAM is driven by a cam mechanism that provides a displacement profile closely matched with those of a healthy eyelid.

Genomic Variation Underpins Genetic Divergence and Differing Salt Resilience in Sesbania bispinosa

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sesbania, a leguminous halophyte, thrives in saline soils. Comparative genomics reveals key genomic variations—particularly chromosomal inversions—are identified as contributors to population differentiation and salt resilience. These findings advance the understanding of genomic variation driving evolution and phenotypic differentiation and offer ...
