From Cytoskeletal Remodeling to Oocyte Quality: The Emerging Role of Mechanics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechanical properties of the oocyte are increasingly recognized as critical determinants of meiotic success and developmental potential. How actomyosin remodeling controls oocyte mechanics, how these properties are altered in pathological conditions, and how they could serve as markers in reproductive medicine are examined.

Intrinsic Mechanical Parameters and their Characterization in Solid‐State Lithium Batteries

Advanced Energy Materials, Volume 15, Issue 11, March 18, 2025.
This review focuses on the intrinsic mechanical parameters and their associated characterization in solid‐state batteries. The physical significance of mechanics parameters is introduced with exhaustive classifications by elastic, plastic deformations and fracture in bulk, adhesion, friction at interfaces, and mechanical fatigue in cells ...

Safety of Sodium‐Ion Batteries: Evaluation and Perspective from Component Materials to Cells, Modules, and Packs

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This review provides a bottom‐up evaluation of sodium‐ion battery safety, linking material degradation mechanisms, cell engineering parameters, and module/pack assembly. It emphasizes that understanding intrinsic material stability and establishing coordinated engineering control across hierarchical levels are vital for preventing degradation coupling ...

Assessing Mesoscale Heterogeneities in Hard Carbon Electrodes Through Deep Learning‐Assisted FIB‐SEM Characterization, Manufacturing and Electrochemical Modeling

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
A combination of discrete and finite element method models for the current collector deformation and electrochemical performance analysis, respectively. The models are calibrated and validated with electrochemical and imaging data of hard carbon electrodes. These electrodes were manufactured with different parameters (slurry solid contents of 35 and 40

High‐Performance Elastomeric Lithium Metal Anodes Enabled by a Lithiophilic Monolayer‐Assembled Nano‐Crumpled Micro‐Concave Architecture

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
We report an elastomeric lithium metal anode integrating hierarchical nano–micro architectures with uniformly assembled lithiophilic amine functionalities. This design enables synergistic stress and interfacial regulation, effectively suppresses dendritic growth, and ensures stable cycling, highlighting elastomeric anodes as a promising platform for ...

Biomimetic 3D Tactile Sensor System With Neuromorphic Encoding for Fascicle‐Level Feedback

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A 3D biomimetic tactile sensor system converts skin‐like mechanical interactions into neural stimulation‐ready spike patterns. Embedded slow‐ and fast‐adapting sensors distinguish sustained pressure from transient touch, while neuromorphic encoding preserves their temporal signatures.

Additives Enhancing Biodegradability in Plastics and Potential Implications for Textiles: A Mechanistic Review

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Mechanistic insights from additive‐assisted plastic degradation guide the design of environmentally adaptive textile fibers. Functional additives enhance oxidative, hydrolytic, enzymatic, and microbial degradation pathways. Translating these strategies requires control of fiber architecture, additive distribution, and environmental interactions ...

Finite element analysis of feeding in red and gray squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris and Sciurus carolinensis)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Invasive gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) have replaced the native red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) across much of Great Britain over the last century. Several factors have been proposed to underlie this replacement, but here we investigated the potential for dietary competition in which gray squirrels have better feeding performance than ...
