3D Printed Meter‐Scale Soft Origami Robots Capable of Load‐Bearing Actuation Via Crease Stiffness Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Origami has inspired numerous soft deployable mechanisms for safe human‐robot interaction, while its intrinsic kinematic instability at arbitrary configurations limited their practical robotic application. This work presents a 3D printed meter‐scale origami robotic actuator capable of load‐bearing deformation through creaseline stiffness modulation.

Surface Neuronal‐Like Structuring of High‐Strength CFRP for Enhanced Electromagnetic Interference Shielding

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study elucidates the microstructural evolution at the material interface of Ni‐plated plain‐weave carbon fiber fabric following vacuum heat treatment at 500°C–900°C under different current densities, as well as the mechanism underlying the synergistic enhancement of electromagnetic shielding and ductility.

ZrCo3B2 and HfCo3B2 Electrodes Go on Stage for Oxygen Evolution Reaction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The intermetallic compounds ZrCo3B2 and HfCo3B2 with distinctive chemical bonding features are excellent OER precursors, restructuring into OER‐active electrocatalysts delivering significantly high OER activities compared to the elemental Co, which is obvious from their lower onset potentials and increased obtained current densities.

Precise Control of Charge–Structure Coupling in Polyamide Membranes for Mono‐ and Divalent Ion Separation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A zwitterionic copolymer, Poly(2‐methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine‐co‐2‐aminoethyl methacrylate hydrochloride) (P(MPC‐co‐AEMA)) copolymers, with tunable MPC/AEMA ratios, is grafted onto the polyamide (PA) selective layer via secondary interfacial polymerization. Balancing reactive anchoring segments (AEMA) and zwitterionic segments (MPC) regulated

EXAMPLE OF TENSION FABRIC STRUCTURE ANALYSIS

open access: yesTASK Quarterly, 2010
The aim of this work is to examine two variants of non-linear strain-stress relations accepted for a description of the architectural fabric. A discussion on the fundamental equations of the dense net model used in the description of the coated woven ...

Bridging Horizontal to Vertical Radiative Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Radiative cooling materials are mature but only work facing the sky, confining them to rooftops. Instead of developing new ones, this system bridges existing horizontal coolers to vertical windows using blades outside the glass. On an occupied urban building, windows stay up to 1.4°C below air temperature while preserving daylight, outward views, and ...
