Micropatterned Surfaces with Unidirectional Wetting Properties for Liquid Transport
Small Structures, EarlyView.Micropatterned surfaces that guide droplets in a single direction are gaining attention for their role in liquid transport. This review explores how surface designs enable such behavior, from gravity‐driven flow to stimulus‐responsive movement. It also discusses fabrication techniques, design challenges, and emerging strategies to advance directional ...

Thermoresistance and giant magnetoresistance of magnetorheological elastomers [PDF]
Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics, 2009 A new magnetorheological elastomer composite (MRE) was developed with a resistance which is strongly sensitive both to temperature and pressure. The electrical resistance of this MRE was investigated versus pressure and temperature. The resistance of the composite was recorded versus pressure for seven different values of the temperature. The mechanism
