Arresting Microphase Separation Encodes Material Mechanics by Sculpting Microarchitectures and Local Polymer Enrichment

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Microarchitecture sculpting via phase separation programs hydrogel mechanics by creating globular, inverse globular, and spinodal structures. Spinodal architectures deliver superior toughness and energy dissipation, while ionic modulation through single polymer phase separation offers a simple, scalable route to tune mechanical properties ...

Cold Atmospheric Plasma‐Activated Decellularized Extracellular Matrix Gel as a Tumor‐Infiltrating Immunoactivation Platform for Post‐Surgical Cancer Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An injectable cold atmospheric plasma‐activated decellularized tumor extracellular matrix hydrogel is introduced as a post‐surgical immunoactivation platform. The engineered gel attracts residual tumor cells and induces immunogenic cell death, reshaping the tumor microenvironment and eliciting systemic antitumor immunity. In combination with checkpoint

Literature review on reinforced concrete members strengthened with FRP at room and elevated temperature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In the last 30 years, composite materials have been successfully applied as structural reinforcement to strengthen existing structures. The success of applying FRPs (Fibre Reinforced Polymers) for strengthening is due to their excellent mechanical ...

Hardening mechanism of commercially pure Mg processed by high pressure torsion at room temperature

open access: yes, 2014
Coarse-grained Mg in the as-cast condition and fine-grained Mg in the extruded condition were processed by high pressure torsion (HPT) at room temperature for up to 16 turns. Microstructure observation and texture analysis indicate that to fulfil the Von

Science‐Towards‐Technology Breakthrough in CO2 Electroreduction: Multiphysics, Multiscale, and Artificial Intelligence Insights

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Electrochemical CO2RR is a key technology for converting CO2 into chemicals, but there remains a gap between “laboratory science” and “engineering practice” in current research. This review establishes a multi‐scale research framework, encompassing atomic‐level characterization, microenvironment regulation, external field‐assisted optimization, and AI ...

Rheological aging and rejuvenation in solid friction contacts

open access: yes, 2002
We study the low-velocity (0.1--100 $\mu$m.s$^{-1}$) frictional properties of interfaces between a rough glassy polymers and smooth silanized glass, a configuration which gives direct access to the rheology of the adhesive joints in which shear localizes.

Liquid Metal Microrobots for Magnetically Guided Transvascular Navigation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Liquid metal‐based microrobots combine magnetic steering, intrinsic X‐ray visibility and softness, to navigate blood vessels even against flow. Under clinically relevant magnetic fields, liquid metal microrobots roll along vessel walls, cross endothelial barriers, and accumulate in target tissues.

Shear Strengthening with a Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Matrix of Reinforced Concrete Elements Under Different Levels of Loads: An Experimental Investigation

open access: yesConstruction Materials
This article explores the impact of strengthening reinforced concrete beams under different load levels, focusing on the use of polyphenylene benzobisoxazole (P.B.O.) fibers in a stabilized inorganic matrix to enhance the shear capacity.

Performance of pre-cracked RC beams shear strengthened with NSM CFRP laminates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The strengthening of an existing Reinforced Concrete (RC) structure often involves concrete in a cracked state. To evaluate the effect of existing cracks on the behavior of RC beams shear strengthened according to the Near Surface Mounted (NSM) technique
