Coordinated Architectural and Chemical Reinforcement in the Crushing Mandible of a Soldier Termite

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The crushing mandible of a soldier termite withstands substantial biting loads despite lacking mineral. Its cuticle is partitioned: convex teeth pair hardness and zinc enrichment with aligned chitin fibers for contact durability, while stiffer concave regions between teeth carry bending loads.

Dynamically Actuated Reconfigurable Topographical Surface Enables Active Control of Implant‐Associated Infections

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A dynamically actuated reconfigurable topographical surface (DARTS) integrates contact‐mediated bactericidal nanotopography with programmable mechanical actuation to actively disrupt bacterial biofilms. Dynamic surface reconfiguration enhances bacterial killing and suppresses implant‐associated infections in vivo, providing a new strategy for active ...

Evolution law of the soil shear band in a triaxial test based on photogrammetry technology

open access: yes工程科学学报
A triaxial test is a common method for studying the shear strength of soil. This test simulates actual engineering conditions; therefore, the evolution law of the shear band is universal.

Gradient‐Conductivity Architecture Enables Synchronous Enhancement of Sensitivity and Detection Range in Multifunctional All‐Paper Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A gradient‐engineered all‐paper sensor is fabricated by integrating MXene and in situ grown AgNPs within hierarchical cellulose networks. The device breaks the sensitivity–detection range trade‐off through cascaded conductive pathways, enabling ultrahigh pressure sensitivity, humidity–pressure decoupled dual‐mode sensing, and outstanding EMI shielding,

Experimental Study of Shear Creep Characteristic of Moraine Soil in Dadu River Bridge in Luding

open access: yes工程科学与技术, 2019
The sediment of the Kangding Bank of Luding Dadu River Bridge of Sichuan–Tibet Expressway mostly consists of very thick moraine soli. In order to study the shear creep characteristic of moraine soil and the long-term deformation of bridge gravity anchor,

Dynamic shear failure strength of loess under complex stress

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao
The undisturbed loess is significantly vulnerable to structural and dynamic damages. The earthquake-induced dynamic shear can destroy the original structure of the loess, causing soil particles to rearrange and compact, which macroscopically appears as ...
