Building like a Coral—Parallelized, Multiscale Biofabrication

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Corals build stiff, strong, and inherently circular skeletal materials under resource‐ and energy‐limited conditions—offering blueprints for transformative materials. We synthesize the current understanding of coral biomineralization and reframe coral growth as a multiscale, parallelized biofabrication process.

High Strength, High Density Concrete

open access: yesACI Journal Proceedings, 1965
Abstract : Although high-density concrete found limited use as a shielding material against X-rays before the large-scale development of nuclear reactors and similar devices, the latter have been almost entirely responsible for the research and development that have been done on the production and use of high-density concrete as a shielding material ...

Mechanical properties of jute fiber‐reinforced high‐strength concrete

open access: yesStructural Concrete, 2019
High‐strength concrete often suffers from brittleness, so the addition of fibers is an effective way to improve its performance. In this study, jute plant fiber was added to high‐strength concrete, and the application method, content, and influence on ...

Liquids as Reinforcements for Anisotropic and Tough Soft Matter Composites

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Liquid metal droplets are shaped and oriented within soft elastomers to create all‐soft matter composites with programmable mechanical anisotropy. These liquid inclusions act as fiber‐like reinforcements, enabling directional stiffness, enhanced toughness, and controlled crack steering under extreme deformation, offering new routes to resilient soft ...

Anti‐Slip Material‐Based Strategies and Approaches

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This review highlights the principle mechanisms of slipping at the microscale, linking contact mechanics with a friction behavior model for surface interfaces. Main strategies to develop anti‐slip properties to the surfaces are discussed alongside standardized testing approaches.
