Sacrificial Ionic Bonds Need To Be Randomly Distributed To Provide Shear Deformability [PDF]
Multivalent ions are known to allow for reversible cross-linking in soft biological materials, providing stiffness and extensibility via sacrificial bonds. We present a simple model where stiff nanoscale elements carrying negative charges are coupled in shear by divalent mobile cations in aqueous media.

Sacrificial bonds heal bone [PDF]
The toughness of bone is usually attributed to its collagen, but how does it work? New evidence shows that molecular bonds can temporarily sacrifice themselves to absorb impacts.

We propose a new concept that utilizes the difference in Poisson's ratio between component materials as a strengthening mechanism that increases the effectiveness of the sacrificial bond toughening mechanism in macroscale double-network (Macro-DN ...

Influence of sacrificial bonds on the mechanical behaviour of polymer chains [PDF]
A growing focus in modern materials science is the attempt to transfer principles found in nature into new technological concepts with the goal of producing novel materials with tailored mechanical properties. One of these principles used in nature is the concept of sacrificial bonding (i.e.

Modular Design of Programmable Mechanofluorescent DNA Hydrogels
Mechanosensitive materials typically lack complex response patterns due to difficult synthetic methods. Here, the authors introduce FRET-based DNA tension probes into macroscopic 3D DNA hydrogels to prepare mechanofluorescent materials with programmable ...

Sacrificial wafer bonding for planarization after very deep etching [PDF]
A technique is presented that provides planarization after a very deep etching step in silicon. This offers the possibility for not only resist spinning and layer patterning but also for realization of bridges and cantilevers across deep grooves or holes.

The Religious World of guthis: Three facets of Newār civilization, Nepal
Despite the impact of Hinduism and Tantric Buddhism, the religion of Jyāpu ‘farmers’ of the Newār ethnic group still presents features that do not fit in with these two ‘high religions’.
