Validity of the Cauchy-Born rule applied to discrete cellular-scale models of biological tissues. [PDF]

, 2013
The development of new models of biological tissues that consider cells in a discrete manner is becoming increasingly popular as an alternative to continuum methods based on partial differential equations, although formal relationships between the ...

Pellet Printing for Soft Robotic Devices

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fused Granulate Fabrication (FGF) is established here as a reliable method for fabricating soft, airtight robotic devices. Through coordinated optimization of hardware, material selection, and process parameters, this approach enables high‐speed printing of thermoplastic elastomers with silicone‐like softness and modulus.

Sono‐Mechanogenetics: Linking Ultrasound Physics With Cellular Mechanobiology

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sono‐mechanogenetics links ultrasound physics with cellular mechanotransduction to enable noninvasive control of engineered biological systems. Acoustic forces generate distinct deformation modes that activate intracellular signaling pathways, which can be coupled to synthetic gene circuits to regulate diverse cellular functions, including gene ...

Paternal Caffeine Exposure Programs Offspring Stress Vulnerability via Sperm Dlk1‐Dio3 Imprinting‐Directed Remodeling of a Novel Neural Circuit

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study elucidates that paternal preconception stress can drive offspring hyperresponsivity of the stress system via hypomethylation of a specific DNA region in sperm. This key link is confirmed in a cohort of prospective fathers: the epigenetic alteration is associated with elevated stress hormone levels.

Flexural behavior of two-span continuous prestressed concrete girders with highly eccentric external tendors [PDF]

, 2005
[Abstract]: It is generally known that the flexural strength of beams prestressed with external tendons is comparatively lower than that of members with internal bonded tendons.

Equilibrium Propagation for Dissipative Dynamics

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work develops local learning rules for damped linear dynamical systems, including mechanical structures and resistor‐inductor‐capacitor (RLC) circuits, by leveraging an effective action formulation. It demonstrates how physical systems can autonomously compute gradients and learn temporal patterns, enabling applications such as sound ...

Construction Technology for Ultra-Long Composite Girders of Shenzhen Museum Using Bonded Post-Tensioning Prestressing Approach

Buildings
Long-span prestressed structures present distinct challenges during tensioning. Their considerable length inherently induces significant tendon friction, resulting in substantial prestress loss. Additionally, prestressing operations within buildings will
