Reversible Self-Actuated Thermo-Responsive Pore Membrane. [PDF]
Smart membranes, which can selectively control the transfer of light, air, humidity and temperature, are important to achieve indoor climate regulation. Even though reversible self-actuation of smart membranes is desirable in large-scale, reversible self-

Strongly nonlinear waves in a chain of Teflon beads [PDF]
One dimensional "sonic vacuum" type phononic crystals were assembled from a chain of Teflon spheres with different diameters in a Teflon holder. It was demonstrated for the first time that this polymer-based "sonic vacuum", with exceptionally low elastic
