Visualizing and Quantifying Impact with Mechanochromic Sensing Paints Based on Self‐Assembled Polydiacetylene‐Silk Core‐Shell Vesicles

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tracking physical impacts is important in many fields. Self‐assembled microparticles made from polydiacetylene and silk fibroin that change color from blue to red when hit can provide an alternative approach to traditional mechanical transducers, quantitatively visualizing impact with responses ranging from <100 to 770 N.

Knitted Pneumatic Fabrics for Dynamic Pressure Modulation in Personalized Healthcare Wearables

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A pneumatic pressure‐regulating knitted fabric (PPKF) is developed, in which knitted pneumatic circuit enables the seamless integration of ultralow radial expansion pneumatic fiber into dual‐channel textile structure. By strategically modulating channel spacing, delivering adjustable dynamic pressures and clinically relevant gradient compression ratios.

A Strain Decoupling Packaging Strategy for High‐Fidelity Ultrathin Silicon Shape Sensors for Soft Medical Robotics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Reliable soft sensors are essential for precise control in soft medical robots such as endoscopes. We developed ultrathin silicon piezoresistive sensors and their oil‐lubricated slidable packaging, which enables high‐fidelity shape sensing of silicon gauges by mechanically isolating the sensing element within a dual‐layer film.

Deformation Driven Suction Cups: A Mechanics‐Based Approach to Wearable Electronics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Deformation‐driven suction cups enable robust, reversible adhesion of wearable electronics to human skin spanning wide mechanical compliance, without adhesives or tight straps. By integrating mechanics modeling, experiments, and contact mechanics theory, this work reveals how cup geometry, substrate compliance, and interfacial adhesion govern suction ...

Selectivity Filter Dynamics Define Ion Conductance and Selectivity Differences in CNG and HCN Channels

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cyclic nucleotide‐gated (CNG) and hyperpolarization‐activated cyclic nucleotide‐gated (HCN) channels share substantial sequence and structural similarity but differ markedly in ion conductance and K+ selectivity. Microsecond‐scale atomistic MD simulations qualitatively reproduced the conductance differences observed in single‐channel recordings and ...

Hierarchical Artificial Muscle with Nonlinear Elasticity for Antagonistic and Cyclic Robotics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We construct hierarchical muscles by plying nylon fibers around a heating wire. The hierarchical muscle shows a J‐shaped passive curve, which shows benefit in antagonistic muscle pair and work accumulation mechanism. We also develop a computational, first‐principle model to understand the physics of both active actuation stroke and passive J‐curve ...

An ATP‐Mediated Antibiotic β‐Peptide Nanofiber That Kills Multidrug‐Resistant Bacteria via a Multistage Mechanism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The 3K‐AP system forms infinite supramolecular fibrils that undergo controlled degradation into shorter fragments upon enzymatic hydrolysis. Multitechnique imaging reveals a stepwise bacteriolytic mechanism involving bacterial entrapment, disassembly into lethal constructs, and associated extracellular vesicle release, highlighting the dynamic ...

Bioinspired Microphase‐Engineered Binders for Silicon Anodes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the tough exoskeleton of Phloeodes diabolicus, a bio‐based binder featuring LRA–click chemistry and hierarchical crosslinking forms well‐defined microphase‐separated structures that enable robust silicon anodes. This system promotes the formation of a LiF–rich, ultrathin SEI (∼17 nm) with high modulus and ionic conductivity, ensuring long ...
