Bone‐Inspired Recyclable Composites for Damage‐Tolerant Circular Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bone‐inspired architected composites are developed by combining osteon‐like reinforcements with a recyclable Elium thermoplastic matrix. The hierarchical architecture redirects cracks and promotes energy dissipation, while enabling recovery of intact, aligned, load‐bearing reinforcement units that retain their original stiffness, revealing a route ...

A four-dimensional Kerdock set over GF(3)

Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series A, 1976
AbstractIf m is an even integer and K = GF(q) is a field of characteristic 2, then there exists a set of qm−1 alternating bilinear forms of degree m over K such that the difference of any two of the forms is nonsingular. Do such sets exist over fields of odd characteristic? This note constructs such a set in the smallest nontrivial case, namely, m = 4,

Kinetics‐Controlled Architecture of Binder‐Free Organic Electrodes for Enhanced Ion Transport

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Pulse reverse electrodeposition controls nucleation and growth to create hierarchically porous Py‐derived oligomeric electrodes with enhanced ionic accessibility and reduced transport resistance. The resulting binder‐free architectures translate these transport advantages into practical sodium‐storage functionality.
