GeoMamba: Geometric-Prior-Infused Multi-Scale Deformable Visual Mamba for Crack Semantic Segmentation

Remote Sensing
Accurate pavement crack segmentation is critical for road infrastructure assessment, yet it remains challenging due to complex background noise and highly variable crack topologies.

Intrinsic Interfacial Energy Alignment Enables ETL‐Free Organic Solar Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Molecular orientation of the small‐molecule donor BTR‐Cl induces a vacuum‐level shift that pins the Fermi level at ∼4.4 eV at the active layer/Ag interface, enabling Ohmic contact formation without an electron transport layer. This strategy is extended to ternary PM6:Y6:BTR‐Cl devices, achieving an ETL‐free efficiency of 18.6% with enhanced operational

Using artificial neural networks to predict the compressive strength of cement and sawdust ash-treated lateritic soil [PDF]

Engineering and Technology Journal
Sawdust industrial residue could be hazardous to the environment, but it becomes pozzolanic when incinerated. Thus, harnessing sawdust ash (SDA) and lateritic soil as road construction materials for low-cost roads is apt. However, modeling and prediction

Electrostatic Superlattices Beyond 1:1 Stoichiometry

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Polymer‐mediated charge regulation drives two hierarchical routes to higher‐stoichiometry nanoparticle superlattices. Tuning the polymer's molecular weight promotes progressive interstitial filling, transforming ZnS into the fully occupied CaF2${\rm CaF}_2$ lattice. Exchanging polymer assignment between large and small nanoparticles instead breaks CsCl

Influence of suction stress on the resilient modulus model for unsaturated aggregate base

Transportation Engineering
The resilient modulus of the aggregate base material is crucial in mechanical pavement design. The resilient modulus is affected not only by the stress state but also by the moisture state, which must be considered during modeling to properly estimate ...

Tailored Diketopyrrolopyrrole Derivatives for Efficient Deep‐Red Organic Lasers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Tailored diketopyrrolopyrrole derivatives exhibit high stable amplified spontaneous emission with single or dual bands. Incorporated into distributed‐feedback lasers based on one‐ and two‐dimensional dichromated‐gelatin diffractive gratings, these materials provide a robust, flexible platform for integrated organic deep‐red light sources. ABSTRACT Deep‐

Atomically Dispersed Ni Site Catalysts Accelerating Sluggish Sulfur Redox Kinetics in Nonaqueous Zn‐S Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An atomically dispersed Ni catalyst featuring Ni‐N4 coordination is developed as a sulfur host for nonaqueous Zn─S batteries. This configuration modulates the electronic structure to lower activation barriers during rate‐limiting steps and promotes a robust ZnF2‐rich cathode‐electrolyte interphase, thereby accelerating sulfur redox kinetics ...

Mathematical modeling of the occurrence of thermomechanical effects in reinforced road structures, due to thermoelastic incompatibility of pavement and reinforcement materials

Дороги і мости
Introduction. In regions with sharp temperature fluctuations during their seasonal and daily changes, the phenomenon of local defects and cracks forming in the asphalt concrete pavements of roads and bridges is very often observed. This is largely due to

Design and Characterization of a Two‐Dimensional Soft Array Based on Cooperative Dielectric Elastomer Actuators

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A fully polymeric two‐dimensional array of Dielectric Elastomers enables self‐sensing, cooperative actuation, and large‐stroke operation in a DE‐based autonomous conveyor. Based only on voltage and current measurements at actuator level, the system detects the presence of a ball and subsequently drives it toward a target position.
