Adaptive 4D‐Printed Vascular Stents With Low‐Temperature‐Activated and Intelligent Deployment

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Microarchitected coronary artery stents were fabricated using a polycaprolactone (PCL)‐based shape memory polymer (SMP) composite via projection micro‐stereolithography (PµSL) 4D printing. By incorporating diethyl phthalate (DEP) as a plasticizer, the thermal transition temperature (Ttran) was modulated to about 37°C, enabling rapid and autonomous ...

Secular change in dental development in New Mexican females

Dental Anthropology, 2013
Recent research has indicated a dramatic acceleration of dental development in 20th century European Americans in Tennessee and Arizona, resulting in developmental stages being reached at earlier calendar ages.

Unsteady flow of a Maxwell nanofluid over a stretching surface in the presence of magnetohydrodynamic and thermal radiation effects

, 2017
The problem of unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow of a non-Newtonian Maxwell nanofluid over a stretching surface with thermal radiation is considered. The Maxwell model is used to characterize the non-Newtonian fluid behaviour.

Controlling 3D Contractility via Engineered Fibrous Hydrogel Composites

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A tunable composite contractile assembly (CCA) is developed that can permit or resist contraction without changing cell‐adhesion and density, unlike collagen whose inherent coupling of these ECM cues limits its use as a platform in contractility studies.

Using a community-based cultural approach to promote life skills and leadership for social determinants of health in adolescents from disadvantaged communities in Casablanca, Morocco: a Sidi Moumen community case study

BMC Public Health
Background Although interventions addressing social determinants of health have been effective in improving life skills and leadership among the adolescents in the high-income countries, little is known about the experience of using experiential cultural

Twinlike Models for Self-Dual Maxwell-Higgs Theories

, 2012
In this work we present a theoretical framework that allows for the existence of coherent twinlike models in the context of self-dual Maxwell-Higgs theories.

Surface Diffusion in SnTe‐PbTe Monolayer Lateral Heterostructures

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The lateral heterostructures between 2D materials often suffer from the interdiffusion at the interfaces. Here, a surface diffusion mechanism is found to be dominating at the interfaces between semiconducting SnTe and PbTe monolayers. Atomically sharp interfaces can be achieved by suppressing this diffusion process. ABSTRACT The construction of complex

Domain Wall Rebounds Driven by Competing Entropic and Spin‐Transfer Torques in Cylindrical Nanowires

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Domain‐wall motion in cylindrical magnetic nanowires driven by nanosecond current pulses. Low current densities efficiently displace domain walls, whereas higher currents cause rebound at the wire ends. The effect results from the interplay between spin‐transfer torque and thermally induced processes, highlighting the role of thermal gradients in ...
