Pose‐Independent Soft Haptic Ring for Joint‐Centered Directional Guidance via Multichannel Shape Memory Alloy Actuators

open access: yesSmall Structures, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
The Pose‐Independent Haptic Ring (PIHR) delivers four‐directional, joint‐referenced haptic cues using a compact multichannel serpentine SMA array embedded in a soft elastomer. By mapping circumferential normal indentation to a metacarpophalangeal (MCP)‐centered spherical coordinate system, the PIHR preserves consistent spatial meaning under arbitrary ...

Electrocatalytic Reduction of CO2 to Ethylene: Catalyst Design and Synchrotron‐Based Characterizations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 35, 30 April 2026.
This review evaluates strategies for electrochemical CO2 reduction to ethylene, focusing on copper‐based catalyst design and microenvironment modulation to achieve industrial‐grade performance. By leveraging operando synchrotron‐based characterizations, we provide a multiscale understanding of dynamic structural transformations and key reaction ...

Simulation‐Based Assessment of Second‐Order Residual Stress Fields on the Fatigue Performance of Silicon‐Strengthened Ferritic Ductile Irons

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 6, 18 March 2026.
This work presents a simulation‐based framework based on representative volume elements (RVEs) that explicitly incorporates process‐induced second‐order residual stresses into the fatigue strength assessment of ductile cast iron (DCI). For the first time, this approach enables a direct evaluation of the influence of second‐order residual stress fields ...

A Shakedown Strength Based Parametric Optimization Technique and Its Application on an Airtight Module

open access: yesChinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2022
In aerospace engineering, design and optimization of mechanical structures are usually performed with respect to elastic limit. Besides causing insufficient use of the material, such design concept fails to meet the ever growing needs of the light weight
