Box2Rip: Instance Segmentation of Amorphous Rip Currents via Box-Supervised Learning

open access: yesIEEE Access
Rip currents are hazardous offshore water flows that significantly threaten swimmers and bathers, pulling them away from the shore at velocities up to $2.4\ ms^{-1}$ .

Elastomeric Micro‐Balloons for Remote Control of Cerebral Blood Flow and Real‐Time In vivo Imaging of Rodent Brain Response to Hypoperfusion

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports the fabrication of MRI‐compatible elastomeric micro‐balloons via a multi‐step bubble casting process, where the monolithic elastomeric wall is selectively stiffened for reversible and controlled inflation and elasticity, depending on the target vessels for graded occlusion of cerebral arteries.

A Deep Learning-Based Pipeline for Detecting Rip Currents from Satellite Imagery

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Detecting rip currents from satellite imagery offers valuable information for the characterization and assessment of this coastal hazard. While recent advances in deep learning have enabled automatic detection from close-view beach images, the broader ...

Actuation of Cell Layers in Three Dimensions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The alignment of fibers and cells in living tissues affect their mechanical properties and functionality. In this context, one can draw an analogy between tissues and nematic liquid crystal elastomers. We explore this analogy by growing fibroblasts on 2D‐patterned substrates and observing the contraction of cell sheets upon detachment from the

Development and evaluation of a rip current forecasting system for channel-type rip currents on a low-energy headland beach

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk
A 34-day field observation was conducted on a headland beach in South China with a typical channel rip current system. The Delft3D model was applied to reproduce hydrodynamic conditions and extract rip currents, while a Generalized Additive Model (GAM ...

Multiple $\Lambda$CDM cosmology with string landscape features and future singularities

open access: yes, 2012
Multiple $\Lambda$CDM cosmology is studied in a way that is formally a classical analog of the Casimir effect. Such cosmology corresponds to a time-dependent dark fluid model or, alternatively, to its scalar field presentation, and it motivated by the ...

Assessing Rip Current Occurrences at Featureless Beaches Using Boussinesq Modeling

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Rip currents at featureless beaches (i.e., beaches lacking sandbars or channels) are often hydrodynamically controlled, exhibiting intermittent and unpredictable behaviors that pose significant risks to recreational beach users.

AI–Guided 4D Printing of Carnivorous Plants–Inspired Microneedles for Accelerated Wound Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents an artificial intelligence (AI)‐guided 4D‐printed microneedle platform inspired by carnivorous plants for wound healing. A thermo‐responsive shape memory polymer enables body temperature–triggered self‐coiling for autonomous wound closure.
