Mechanical Properties and Testing Strategies for Two‐Photon Lithography: A Review of Current Practices and Emerging Challenges

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Two‐photon lithography enables the fabrication of complex 3D microstructures with tunable mechanical properties spanning from soft hydrogels to rigid hybrid networks. This review summarizes how material composition, printing parameters, and post‐processing govern stiffness and viscoelasticity, highlighting advanced characterization methods and emerging

EFFECTS OF PRE-BUCKLING DEFLECTIONS ON LOCAL, DISTORTIONAL AND LATERAL-TORSIONAL BUCKLING OF I-BEAMS

Doboku Gakkai Ronbunshu, 1985
The displacement and strain distributions for a plate segment comprising open cross section are derived considering the pre-buckling deflection of beam axis. Applying the higher order theory obtained to I-beams bent about their major axes by equal end moments, the effects of pre-buckling deflections on local, distortional and lateral-torsional buckling

Properties of Liquid Crystalline Elastomer Foams

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Controlled foaming of liquid crystalline elastomers (LCE) with expandable microspheres creates particle‐centred mesogenic interphases that enhance viscoelastic dissipation at low bubble fractions. Under impact, optimal damping shifts to moderate porosity, balancing interphase loss, bubble compression, compliance, and integrity.

Spatially Resolved Strain Mapping In Flexible Oxide Membranes

Small, EarlyView.
High‐resolution synchrotron x‐ray diffraction reveals how strain transfers and distributes within crystalline oriented oxide membranes (10–100 nm thick) on flexible substrates that are subjected to stretching and bending. The study uncovers local strain heterogeneities that deviate from macroscopic averages, providing a crucial framework when ...

Anatomical Study of Lateral Compression II Screw Path and Entry Parameters Based on Three‐Dimensional CT Image Reconstruction Techniques

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1454-1463, May 2025.
This graphical abstract illustrates a study where 43 adult patients (21 males, 22 females) underwent CT scans to reconstruct 3D pelvic models using Mimics and 3‐Matic software. The analysis measured the Lateral Compression II (LC‐II) screw path, revealing sex‐based anatomical differences that could improve the precision and safety of percutaneous LC‐II

A New Paradigm for Understanding the Rheology and Processability of Poly(p‐Phenylene Terephthalamide) Liquid‐Crystalline Solutions

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 34, September 10, 2026.
Kevlar is traditionally modeled as a rigid‐rod polymer, yet rheological behavior deviates from this assumption. The review introduces a novel “twist‐tie” entanglement theory for aramid polymer chains in the nematic liquid crystal state, providing a molecular explanation for deviations from rigid‐rod models. Understanding twist‐tie entanglement dynamics

Distortional lateral torsional buckling for simply supported beams with web cleats [PDF]

Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 2015
Critical moment expressions for steel beams based on elastic lateral torsional buckling as given in classical solutions and present standard provisions are based on assumed fully restrained support conditions and simplifying kinematic assumptions that neglect distortional effects.
