Active Oscillations of Elastic Membranes Arising from the Coupling with a Catalytic Reaction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Coupling an elastic membrane to a catalytic reaction produces active oscillations that self‐sustain for hours: the membrane cyclically inflates and deflates as the reaction spontaneously activates and deactivates, without external power. Energy release is directly embodied in the oscillation dynamics, opening elasto‐chemical strategies for the physical

Vine‐Inspired Soft Robotics: Materials, Actuations, and Emerging Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Vine‐inspired robots grow from the tip, enabling navigation through confined spaces with minimal disturbance. This Review summarizes material and actuation strategies for vine‐inspired growth, key functions including steering, retraction, attachment, branching, and variable stiffness, and emerging applications spanning medical intervention, confined ...

H4K12 Lactylation Regulates NDUFS7 to Drive Microglia Reverse Electron Transport in Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Lactate accumulation after SCI promotes H4K12la lactylation, which upregulates NDUFS7, triggering mitochondrial RET and ROS, enforcing pro‐inflammatory microglial polarization. MM@mPTC, a biomimetic nanotherapeutic, degrades LDHA in activated microglia, reducing H4K12la lactylation and blocking RET, thus curbing ROS, fostering a reparative phenotype ...

On the Emergence of Time in Quantum Gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We discuss from a philosophical perspective the way in which the normal concept of time might be said to `emerge' in a quantum theory of gravity. After an introduction, we briefly discuss the notion of emergence, without regard to time (Section 2).

Enhanced Acoustic Adhesion Enabling Agile and Small Wall‐Climbing Robot Design With Anisotropic Origami Structure

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This 28 g robot incorporates innovative ring structures and anisotropic origami springs to achieve high speeds and exceptional load capacity. It successfully carries a 100 g payload while ascending walls or ceilings at speeds of up to 8 and 20 cm/s, demonstrating enhanced adhesion and maneuverability over current climbing robots.

Nonlinear gravity-wave interactions in stratified turbulence

open access: yes, 2014
To investigate the dynamics of gravity waves in stratified Boussinesq flows, a model is derived that consists of all three-gravity-wave-mode interactions (the GGG model), excluding interactions involving the vortical mode.
