The Structural Refinement of Commercial‐Purity Copper Processed by Equal Channel Angular Pressing with Low Strain Amplitude

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Equal channel angular pressing of commercial pure copper under low strain amplitude (≈0.48) induces concurrent continuous and localized discontinuous dynamic recrystallization, forming a duplex structure influenced by strain heterogeneity and recovery. Moderate hardening after 4–12 passes results from progressive high‐angle grain boundary formation via

Soft Beats: A Dielectric Elastomer‐Based Ventricular Assist Device for Next‐Gen Heart Failure Management

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The dielectric elastomer‐based electropneumatic device (DE‐EPD) is a vacuum‐assisted ventricular assist device (VAD) that delivers high performance (85 mmHg, 6.8 L min−1) with low power consumption. Unlike traditional motor‐driven VADs, it is lightweight, quiet, energy‐efficient, and provides pulsatile flow. Validated in a simulated circulation system,
