Bio‐Inspired Artificial Ionic Mechanoreceptor
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A skin‐inspired artificial mechanoreceptor based on ionic interactions is presented for biomimetic tactile sensing. Pressure‐driven ionic redistribution within microfluidic channels generates a self‐powered electrical signal without external bias. The generated waveform exhibits mechanoreceptor‐like temporal features, including overshoot and undershoot,

Load Distributing Metamaterials Via Discrete Optimization
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Mechanical metamaterials are computationally optimized to homogenize transmitted forces by minimizing the spread of reaction forces. The resulting architectures transform localized loading into broader, more uniform force distributions and experimentally demonstrate robust load spreading under quasi‐static and impact loading.

THE SHEAR BEHAVIOUR OF THE REINFORCED CONCRETE FOUR-PILE CAPS
, 2009 There has been a consistent discrepancy between UK design standards BS5400 and BS8110 in the prediction of the shear capacity of 2-way spanning reinforced concrete pile caps from bending theory-based empirical design formulae.

Determining the effect of strain rate on the fracture of sheet steel [PDF]
A key challenge for the automotive industry is to reduce vehicle mass without compromising on crash safety. To achieve this, it is necessary to model local failure in a material rather than design to the overly conservative criteria of total elongation

Study on the Rheology of Corn Oil Subjected to Forced Oxidation
The Annals of “Dunarea de Jos” University of Galati. Fascicle IX, Metallurgy and Materials Science, 2014 This paper reflects a study on the rheology of corn oil in unoxidized state, subjected to forced oxidation treatment. Using the Rheotest2 system, the variation of dynamic viscosity with temperature and shear rate, using oxidized and nonoxidized corn oil,

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A sequential dual‐alignment strategy independently programs the orientation of conductive metal‐organic framework (c‐MOF) microrods and liquid crystals within a composite film. This approach creates an asymmetric bilayer structure that enables precise, multi‐responsive actuation.

Preferential Interfacial Engineering of Hydrogels via Interdigitated Nanoparticle Assembly
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Robust surface functionalization of hydrogel surfaces is performed via interdigitated metal nanoparticle assembly, inducing strong affinity with the hydrogel matrix. The partially exposed nanoparticle domains act as interfacial nanobridges that mediate both chemical and physical bonding with diverse materials, including small molecules, fluorous ...
