Geckos and anoline iguanid lizards are well‐known for their possession of adhesive toepads, which are generally regarded as being convergent structures. We show that the anatomical configuration of the foot in these two lineages differs markedly and that these differences likely relate to the contrasing ways they deploy their adhesive systems and ...

This study investigates the morphology and osteo‐histology of the wing skeleton of the world's first gliding reptiles, showing how it differs from those of extant gliding lizards, yet is also convergently similar. These findings pave the way for future biomechanical studies on the gliding locomotion of these emblematic fossil animals. Abstract The Late

Evaluation of Creep Life and Damage for AISI 304 Under Combined Tension/Torsion Multiaxial Loading
ABSTRACT In the present study, to investigate the effects of temperature and principal stress ratio on the multiaxial creep rupture time of AISI 304 stainless steel, creep tests were conducted under various principal stress ratios at 650°C and 700°C.

Application of Discontinuity Layout Optimization to Metal Shells and Assemblies
ABSTRACT Discontinuity Layout Optimization (DLO) provides a computationally efficient means of determining collapse loads and associated failure mechanisms across a wide spectrum of plasticity problems. The classical DLO method has focused separately on in‐plane and out‐of‐plane plasticity.

Thermomechanics of Picoliter Liquids Encapsulated in Metal Microarchitectures
Picoliter‐scale water is encapsulated inside hollow copper microcylinders through a single‐step localized electrodeposition process. Mechanical testing at room and cryogenic temperatures reveals that incompressible liquid and load‐bearing microscale ice enhance the strength and deformation behavior of the composite structure.

Dead Matter, Living Machines: Repurposing Crustaceans' Abdomen Exoskeleton for Bio‐Hybrid Robots
Crustacean exoskeletons, repurposed from food waste, are engineered into sustainable bending actuators combining biotic structure with synthetic control. The augmented exoskeletons achieve rapid and robust motion with lightweight body and can be used as part of robotic manipulators, grippers and swimmers.
