Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The work demonstrates that strategic wall‐thickness grading in diamond triply periodic minimal surface lattices enables precise tuning of deformation and failure behavior under compression. Different gradation patterns guide how and where the structure collapses, improving energy absorption or promoting controlled brittle failure.

Fractional Skyrmion Tubes in Chiral‐Interfaced 3D Magnetic Nanowires
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.In chiral 3D helical magnetic nanowires, the coupling between the geometric and magnetic chirality provides a way to create topological spin states like vortex tubes. Here, it is demonstrated how the breaking of this coupling in interfaced 3D nanowires of opposite chirality leads to even more complex topological spin states, such as fractional ...

Improving Global Financial Stability [PDF]
, 2000 This report concludes that the failure of developing country governments and international financial institutions to adapt to changing markets helped trigger some of the world's financial crises. Arguing that global finance is "more susceptible to crisis
