Piezo‐Coupling Effects in Smart Polymers: Toward Ultrasensitive Sensing and Biomedical Applications
Piezo‐coupling effects are the foundational factors for the development of multifunctional and self‐powered platforms. Central to this advancement is the use of stimuli‐responsive smart polymers, which offer mechanical flexibility, biocompatibility, and simplified structural complexity with improved sensitivity and energy efficiency.

Given that PEEK chest wall implants induce shear force at the soft tissue‐implant interface due to respiratory motion in the early in vivo post‐implantation stage. We confirmed that this mechanical stimulus triggers the PIEZO1/ITGB1/YAP1 signalling axis in L929 and the STAT6/p‐STAT6 pathway in RAW264.7, which in turn mediates adhesion and migration of ...

Origami has inspired numerous soft deployable mechanisms for safe human‐robot interaction, while its intrinsic kinematic instability at arbitrary configurations limited their practical robotic application. This work presents a 3D printed meter‐scale origami robotic actuator capable of load‐bearing deformation through creaseline stiffness modulation.
