Preparing for the Next Transformation in Pavement Management
, 2015 Since the initial development of a systems approach for managing pavements in the late 1970's and early 1980's, there have been tremendous changes in the way transportation agencies have designed, constructed, and managed their pavement networks. In just

Strengthening Constitutive Motifs in Isotropic Fibrous Hydrogel for Exceptional Damage Resistance
Advanced Science, EarlyView.An orientation‐free strategy is reported for fabricating damage‐resistant hydrogels by strengthening constitutive motifs in isotropic fibrous (IF) networks. Through nonsolvent quenching followed by salting‐out, IF networks are generated and their multiscale constituents are subsequently reinforced, yielding dense and crystalline isotropic nanofiber ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A rational, solvent‐free synthesis utilizing 2,6‐diaminonaphthalene produces ultrabright green‐emissive carbon dots. Regulated by a self‐limiting oxidative capping mechanism, excitons undergo ultrafast intra‐particle funneling from the nitrogen‐doped carbon core to emissive surface traps.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Inspired by the insect campaniform sensillum, a heterogeneous bilayer strain sensor is developed based on a unique impedance mismatch and three‐dimensional structural dynamic percolation strategy. The sensor enables real‐time multi‐joint teleoperation of three joints and the gripper using a six‐degree‐of‐freedom robotic‐arm platform.

Freestanding PZT Films for Integrated Wearable Sensing and Intelligent Acoustic Recognition
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A freestanding epitaxial PZT/LaNiO3/Pt heterostructure is achieved via water‐assisted delamination from mica, effectively eliminating substrate‐induced clamping and releasing intrinsic ferroelectricity. The released film exhibits substantially enhanced remanent polarization and piezoelectric response, delivering excellent mechanical flexibility and ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Mechanical cues, including ECM stiffness, stretch, compression, shear stress, and traction forces, remodel trafficking across the secretory pathway, from the ER and Golgi to endolysosomal compartments and the plasma membrane. The resulting secretome reshapes ECM composition and tissue mechanics, establishing feedback loops that support homeostasis or ...

An Engineered Supramolecular Pathway for Enhanced Electrochemiluminescence
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A supramolecular electrochemiluminescent (ECL) system is presented in which cucurbit[7]uril (CB7) is covalently linked to [Ru(bpy)3]2+, forming a recognition‐responsive emitter. Host‒guest preorganization of tri‐n‐propylamine enables intramolecular ECL, boosting intensity by 162% compared to the standard system.
