On‐Demand Activation of Thin Alginate Shell Encapsulated Volatile Liquid for Untethered Pneumatic Soft Actuation

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Phase‐changing liquids enable untethered pneumatic actuation in soft robotics but suffer from volatility and storage challenges. This work reports a simple method to encapsulate Novec 7000 within micron‐thin alginate shells via in situ injection and ionic crosslinking.

Ideal Molecular Sieving with a Dense MOF for Helium Upgrading with Highly Diffusion Selective Mixed Matrix Membranes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The separation of Helium gas from natural gas is challenging but highly important. MIL‐116(Ga), a “non‐porous” metal–organic framework is used as a molecular sieve to separate He from CH4. Druse‐like MIL‐116(Ga) particles are integrated into polysulfone mixed matrix membranes.

Next-generation Improvements in Giant-exoplanet Evolutionary and Structural Models

The Astrophysical Journal
Many evolutionary models of giant exoplanets still rely on simplifying assumptions that are no longer adequate, given detailed constraints from Jupiter, Saturn, and modern exoplanet observations.

A Termite‐Inspired Alternative to Cement

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A termite‐inspired composite of clay, cellulose, and lignin forms a dense fibrous network with concrete‐like strength (32 MPa) and superior elasticity, processed at ambient temperature. Abstract Clay combined with organic materials is used by termites as a strong and durable construction material for their mounds with minimal environmental impact. Here,

New Method for Isomorphism Identification of Planetary Gear Trains based on Traversing Loop

Jixie chuandong, 2020
Isomorphism identification is one of the indispensable processes in structure synthesis of planetary gear trains. It is of great significance for the creation of novel planetary gear train with excellent transmission characteristics.

Acoustic signal analysis of the resonance frequency region for planetary gearbox fault diagnosis based on high-order synchrosqueezing transform

工程科学学报, 2020
Planetary gearboxes have one or several planet gears rotating around the sun gear while revolving along their axle. This unique gear structure results in the simultaneous meshing of the planet gear with both sun and ring gears.

‘Oxygen Bound to Magnesium’ as High Voltage Redox Center Causes Sloping of the Potential Profile in Mg‐Doped Layered Oxides for Na‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Na‐ion batteries ‐ Impact of doping on the oxygen redox: The sloping potential of NaMg0.1Ni0.4Mn0.5O2 above 4.0 V is caused by a new redox center (arising from the ‘O bound to Mg’), having a higher potential but being more irreversible compared to the ‘O bound to Ni’.

The Uncertainty in Water Mass Fraction of Wet Planets

The Astrophysical Journal
Planets with masses between Earth and Neptune often have radii that imply the presence of volatiles, suggesting that water may be abundant in their interiors.

A structural law of planetary systems [PDF]

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2008
The present article gives a detailed analysis of a little known phenomenological structural formula of the Solar system proposed by Kirill Butusov. It is demonstrated that this structural law may also exist in an extra-solar system – 55 Cancri.
