Bioinspired Hierarchical Architecture with Water Transport Channels for Strong Adhesion at the Sweating Interface

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 28, 18 May 2026.
To address adhesion failure in sweaty epidermal electronics, this study proposes a cross‐species, multi‐scale biomimetic interface. By modeling staged wet adhesion, it integrates self‐regulating liquid bridges with directional drainage. This design ensures stable, high‐performance flexible sensing in complex physiological environments, offering a ...

Mechanotransduction in the Brain: Soliton Theory, Piezo Receptors and MR Elastography in Headache Pathophysiology

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose This narrative review aims to explore how incorporating mechanical and thermal dimensions can complement and extend the classical Hodgkin‐Huxley (HH) model to enrich the understanding of headache and pain pathophysiology. Method This review examines the integration of three distinct concepts with the HH model.

The performance and application of high speed long life LH2 hybrid bearings for reusable rocket engine turbomachinery [PDF]

open access: yes
Data are presented for two different experimental programs which were conducted to investigate the characteristics of a hybrid (hydrostatic/ball) bearing operating in liquid hydrogen. The same bearing design was used in both programs.

Multiple Longitudinal Tracts in the Cephalopod Arm Sensorimotor System

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 5, May 2026.
Octopuses have a rich behavioral repertoire, coordinating complex movements along the length of an arm. The neural circuits controlling these behaviors are poorly understood. We employ tract‐tracing to investigate longitudinal tracts in the octopus arm.

Influence of Inherited Rifted Margin Architecture on Continental Collision Dynamics

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Continental collision is a key process in lithospheric evolution, driving mountain building, crustal thickening, and supercontinent assembly. Within the Wilson cycle, collision marks the final stage following rifting, ocean spreading, and subduction.

Evaluation of a hybrid hydrostatic bearing for cryogenic turbopump application [PDF]

open access: yes
A hybrid hydrostatic bearing was designed to operate in liquid hydrogen at speeds to 80,000 rpm and radial loads to 440 n (100 lbf). The bearing assembly consisted of a pair of 20-mm angular-contact ball bearings encased in a journal, which was in turn ...

Assessing Deposit‐Derived Pyroclastic Flow Hazard at Stromboli (Italy): 1. Reconstruction of the Dynamics of the 11 September 1930 Event

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Stromboli volcano (Italy) is known for its persistent explosive activity punctuated by more energetic explosions called paroxysms. During paroxysms, pyroclastic density currents, triggered by the gravitational instability of hot pyroclastic deposits, can occur.

Design and evaluation of a 3 million DN series-hybrid thrust bearing [PDF]

open access: yes
The bearing, consisting of a 150-mm ball bearing and a centrifugally actuated, conical, fluid-film bearing, was fatigue tested. Test conditions were representative of a mainshaft ball bearing in a gas turbine engine operating at maximum thrust load to ...

Transport of Water in a Transient, Impact‐Generated Atmosphere on Mercury

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Mercury's polar cold traps host water ice deposits that are likely populated with impact‐delivered water via Mercury's exosphere. However, Mercury's near‐sun location experiences an extremely high photodestruction rate that rapidly destroys water with a timescale of only ∼3.5 hr.
