Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Coarse‐grained (left) and atomistic (right) models of the shape memory polymer ESTANE ETE 75DT3 are shown schematically. The two representations bridge molecular detail and mesoscopic description. Both models capture shape memory behavior, linking segmental mobility and conformational relaxation of anisotropic chains to macroscopic recovery, and ...

A Dislocation Perspective on Strength and Toughness in Ceramics
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Dislocations in ceramics enjoy a long but yet under‐appreciated history. The three research waves for dislocations in ceramics highlight the topic evolution over the last 90 years. This review focuses on the impact of dislocation on strength and toughness in ceramics.

Design and Analysis of Compression–Torsion Coupling Metamaterials Using the Golden Section Method
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A novel compression–torsion metamaterial is engineered using inclined rods and symmetry breaking. To optimize its torsional performance, the golden section method is employed. The mechanical response of the metamaterial is validated through both numerical analysis and experimental validation.

A near term pole-sitter using hybrid solar sail propulsion [PDF]
, 2010 In this paper we investigate optimal pole-sitter orbits using hybrid solar sail and solar electric propulsion(SEP). A pole-sitter is a spacecraft that is constantly above one of the Earth's poles. Optimal orbits, that minimize propellant mass consumption,

Novel pole-sitter mission concepts for continuous polar remote sensing [PDF]
, 2012 The pole-sitter concept is a solution to the poor temporal resolution of polar observations from highly inclined, low Earth orbits and the poor high latitude coverage from geostationary orbit.

Bio-inspired nano rotor investigation based on UVLM
Biosurface and Biotribology, 2019 Nano rotor is of great value in military and civilian applications. Due to its nano size, it works at an ultra-low Reynolds number and aerodynamic performance deteriorates dramatically.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Edible electronics needs integrated logic circuits for computation and control. This work presents a potentially edible printed chitosan‐gated transistor with a design optimized for integration in circuits. Its implementation in integrated logic gates and circuits operating at low voltage (0.7 V) is demonstrated, as well as the compatibility with an ...
