Microengineered Gradient Hydrogels for Mechanobiology
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Gradient hydrogels are used to mimic the mechanical heterogeneity in native tissues, offering powerful in vitro platforms to study cell‐material interactions in diverse pathophysiological contexts. Here, we present a comprehensive review of the design and experimental considerations for stiffness gradient hydrogels, discussing exemplary achievements ...

A new collective mode in the fractional quantum Hall liquid [PDF]
, 2006 We apply the methods of continuum mechanics to the study of the collective modes of the fractional quantum Hall liquid. Our main result is that at long wavelength there are {\it two} distinct modes of oscillations, while previous theories predicted only {

Topological Point Defects in SmC* Liquid Crystals Under Mechanical Disturbance
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Tangetial air jet shear inducess island formation and nucleates topological point defects in uniform SmC films. Island bounded by edge dislocation loops shrink and transform into isolated point defects under continued shear. Mechanical perturbatio provides a controllable route for defect engineering in smectric liquid crystal thin films.

Changes in seismic anisotropy at Ontake volcano: a tale of two eruptions
SeismicaThe interaction of faults, fractures, and hydromagmatic systems of volcanoes can lead to complicated stress patterns that vary over short spatial and temporal scales.

A new interpretation of dielectric data in molecular glass formers [PDF]
, 2006 Literature dielectric data of glycerol, propylene carbonate and ortho-terphenyl (OTP) show that the measured dielectric relaxation is a decade faster than the Debye expectation, but still a decade slower than the breakdown of the shear modulus.
