2D Skeletal Muscle Thin Film Actuators Enhance Efficiency of Biohybrid Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
2D skeletal muscle thin film actuators generate millinewton‐scale forces and millimeter‐scale strokes while remaining functional for over 30 days. Their force density is 20‐fold higher than 3D skeletal muscle actuators, enabling multi‐fin robots with tunable speed and multidirectional steering.

Intracrystalline Void‐Mediated Toughening of Brittle Crystals in Quail Eggshells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In quail eggshells, the high density and disordered arrangement of intracrystalline voids inhibit lattice cleavage, suppress long‐range crack propagation, and promote deformation twinning and quasi‐plasticity, serving as an essential toughening motif. We show that these voids remain within a narrow subcritical size range and therefore predominantly do ...

Function theory, geometry, and circular numerical ranges

open access: yesConcrete Operators
We introduce the reader to partial isometries and their properties. In particular, we consider the Gau-Wang-Wu conjecture from 2016: When is the numerical range of a partial isometry circular?

On the monoid of cofinite partial isometries of $\qq{N}^n$ with the usual metric

open access: yesPracì Mìžnarodnogo Geometričnogo Centru, 2019
In this paper we study the structure of the monoid Iℕn ∞ of  cofinite partial isometries of the n-th power of the set of positive integers ℕ with the usual metric for a positive integer n > 2.

Approximate unitary equivalence of power partial isometries

open access: yes, 1984
Every power partial isometry (p.p.i.) in the Calkin algebra lifts to a p.p.i. in B ( H ) B\left ( \mathcal {H} \right ) .

Nonplanar Bouligand Architectures for Enhanced Mechanical Performance in Cementitious Composites

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by the impact region of the Mantis shrimp dactyl club, nonplanar additive manufacturing translates sinusoidal Bouligand architectures into cementitious composites. Printing‐induced anisotropy and architected interfaces promote distributed damage and arrest crack propagation, enhancing strength and energy absorption.

On the Ideals of C∗-Algebra Generated by a Family of Partial Isometries and Multipliers [PDF]

open access: yesУчёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Физико-математические науки, 2015
C∗-subalgebra of the algebra of all bounded operators on the Hilbert space l2 generated by the multiplier algebra and a family of partial isometries satisfying some relations is covered in the paper.

Programmable Microgel Degradation in Dynamic Granular Hydrogels Guides Extracellular Matrix Assembly During Tissue Repair

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports on the chemical modification of hyaluronic acid to create hydrogels with hydrolytic degradability ranging from 2–28 days. Granular hydrogels that undergo timed degradation to increase porosity enhance cell invasion and provisional ECM remodeling in a muscle injury model, leading to reduced fibrosis and improved regeneration ...

The Gau-Wang-Wu conjecture on partial isometries holds in the 5-by-5 case [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Gau, Wang and Wu in their LAMA'2016 paper conjectured (and proved for $n\leq 4$) that an $n$-by-$n$ partial isometry cannot have a circular numerical range with a non-zero center. We prove that this statement holds for $n=5$
