Two‐Way Shape Memory Polymer Composite Gripper for Adaptive Robotic Applications
A two‐way shape memory polymer (SMP) composite is developed with intrinsic shape‐changing capability driven solely by temperature, eliminating external actuation loads. Embedding the SMP in a low‐stiffness elastomeric matrix enabled reversible transformations during heating and cooling cycles.

Vulnerability of the rip current phenomenon in marine environments using machine learning models
Hidden and perilous rip currents are one of the primary factors leading to drownings of beach swimmers. By identifying the coastal areas with the highest likelihood of generating rip currents, it becomes possible to prevent fatalities and mitigate ...

Rip-Current and Coastal Topography
At the 1974 Conference on Coastal Engineering (Copenhagen), the -writer proposed a new theory on the mechanism of generation of ripcurrent and cuspidal coast that the alongshore homogeneous structure of wave field and movable sedimental bottom (that is two-dimensional wave setup and bottom topography) is unstable to a small perturbation, the motive ...

Hydrogel Confinement Strategies for 3D Cell Culture in Microfluidic Systems
Hydrogel confinement structures are key to organizing 3D cell cultures in microfluidic devices. This review classifies five structural strategies (micropillar, phaseguide, porous membrane, stepped‐height, and support‐free) and examines their trade‐offs alongside fabrication methods.
