Topological Point Defects in SmC* Liquid Crystals Under Mechanical Disturbance
Tangetial air jet shear inducess island formation and nucleates topological point defects in uniform SmC films. Island bounded by edge dislocation loops shrink and transform into isolated point defects under continued shear. Mechanical perturbatio provides a controllable route for defect engineering in smectric liquid crystal thin films.

Optimization design of radial meshing nutation magnetic gear system based on D-APSO algorithm
To combine the high transmission ratio of nutation drives with the non-contact power transfer of permanent-magnet gears, this paper proposes a novel radial meshing nutation magnetic drive system (RMNMD) and investigates its magnetic coupling mechanism ...

Pattern Formation in Non‐Equilibrium Architected Materials
This article demonstrates an artificial mechanical system ‐ a robotic metamaterial ‐ as an accessible and versatile platform within which to explore and prescribe the reaction‐diffusion driven pattern formation hitherto associated with comparatively less accessible and versatile non‐equilibrium biological and chemical systems.

Advanced Design for Weakly Coupled Resonators by Automatic Active Optimization
An Automatic Active Optimization (AAO) strategy integrates machine learning predictors and genetic algorithms in a closed‐loop workflow. By iteratively expanding its dataset with new discoveries, AAO overcomes the limits of conventional methods. This approach finds superior microstructural designs beyond the initial sample space. We demonstrate this on

Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...

Design and analysis of high torque density machines for aerospace applications
Owing to the growing demands for low carbon emissions and the soaring concerns over the energy crisis, the more electric aircraft (MEA), which is regarded as the most desirable substitute for conventional aircraft, has drawn increasing interest. As the key components of the propulsion system, the electric motors directly affect the performance of MEA ...
