Adaptable Tile‐Based Pneumatic Origami through Structurally Coupled Localized Actuation
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This article presents tile‐based pneumatic origami structures with rigid tiles and flexible fabric creases, achieving adaptable properties including morphing shape, selective multistability, and tunable stiffness. Independently pressurized folding bladders at each crease enable structurally coupled localized actuation of origami structures.

Hard cases make bad law? [PDF]
Journal of Medical Ethics, 1997 Not all that long ago, the law played only a minor role in the dramas enacted when medicine and morals collided. Today all is changed; law takes a starring role. Judges find themselves "on call", required, like doctors, to make decisions on birth and death, sometimes at unsocial hours.

What Do Large Language Models Know About Materials?
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.If large language models (LLMs) are to be used inside the material discovery and engineering process, they must be benchmarked for the accurateness of intrinsic material knowledge. The current work introduces 1) a reasoning process through the processing–structure–property–performance chain and 2) a tool for benchmarking knowledge of LLMs concerning ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Curvature‐tuned auxetic lattices are designed, fabricated, and mechanically characterized to reveal how geometric curvature governs stretchability, stress redistribution, and Poisson's ratio evolution. Photoelastic experiments visualize stress pathways, while hyperelastic simulations quantify deformation mechanics.

Variable-Frequency QPOs from the Galactic Microquasar GRS 1915+105 [PDF]
, 1998 We show that the galactic microquasar GRS 1915+105 exhibits quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) whose frequency varies continuously from 1-15 Hz, during spectrally hard dips when the source is in a flaring state.
