Beyond Presumptions: Toward Mechanistic Clarity in Metal‐Free Carbon Catalysts for Electrochemical H2O2 Production via Data Science

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Metal‐free carbon catalysts enable the sustainable synthesis of hydrogen peroxide via two‐electron oxygen reduction; however, active site complexity continues to hinder reliable interpretation. This review critiques correlation‐based approaches and highlights the importance of orthogonal experimental designs, standardized catalyst passports ...

On the volume functional of compact manifolds with boundary with constant scalar curvature

open access: yes, 2008
We study the volume functional on the space of constant scalar curvature metrics with a prescribed boundary metric. We derive a sufficient and necessary condition for a metric to be a critical point, and show that the only domains in space forms, on ...

Adaptive Twisting Metamaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces torque‐controlled twisting metamaterials as a transformative platform for adaptive crashworthiness. By combining multiscale predictive modeling with experimental validation on additively manufactured gyroids, it demonstrates tunable stiffness, collapse stress, and energy absorption.

Printability Metrics in Direct Ink Writing: Critical Review of the Literature and Novel Perspective Based on Dimensional Analysis

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The impossibility of defining universal printability criteria for Direct Ink Writing (DIW) requires “unpacking” the process into printing subfunctions. Each of these is rationalized by identifying dimensionless groups, allowing effective comparison between the various material‐ and process‐related parameters for printability purposes.

Prescribing Scalar Curvature on Sn and Related Problems, Part I

open access: yesJournal of Differential Equations, 1995
AbstractLet (Sn, g0) be the standard n-sphere. The following question was raised by L. Nirenberg. Which function K(x) on S2 is the Gauss curvature of a metric g on S2 conformally equivalent to g0? Naturally one may ask a similar question in higher dimensional case, namely, which function K(x) on Sn is the scalar curvature of a metric g on Sn ...

Cloaking and Antennas: From Theoretical Paradigms to Next‐Generation Intelligent Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
The inception of electromagnetic cloaking sparked an immediate question: Can antennas be made invisible? Two decades later, this review charts the intertwined progress of major cloaking strategies (from transformation optics to scattering cancellation), metasurface technology, and their application to antennas, revealing how AI‐enabled devices are ...

Prescribing integral curvature equation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper we formulate new curvature functions on $\mathbb{S}^n$ via integral operators. For certain even orders, these curvature functions are equivalent to the classic curvature functions defined via differential operators, but not for all even ...

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.
