Magnetic Textiles: A Review of Materials, Fabrication, Properties, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Magnetic textiles (M‐textiles) are emerging as a programmable materials platform that merges magnetic matter with hierarchical textile structures. This article consolidates magnetic material classes, textile architectures, and fabrication and magnetization strategies, revealing structure–property–function relationships that govern magneto‐mechanical ...

The behaviour of a two-component backfilling grout used in a Tunnel-Boring Machine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The instantaneous filling of the annulus that is created behind the segment lining at the end of the tail during the TBM advance is an operation of paramount importance.

Schottky Barrier Engineering in n‐Type Organic Source‐Gated Transistors Enabling High Conductance

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study introduces a modified source electrode architecture for n‐type organic source‐gated transistors (OSGTs). By integrating Schottky and Ohmic contact regions, the design achieves a thinner depletion envelope, enhancing mobility nearly tenfold and reducing threshold voltage.

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.

Discovery of an Adaptive Neuroimmune Response Driving Itch and Fast Tick Removal with Implications for Preventing Pathogen Transmission

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Itch‐induced tick removal (IITR): An acquired neuroimmune mechanism, itch‐induced tick removal, develops after repeated tick exposure, mobilizing T cells and macrophages at the tick bite site to trigger a rapid scratching response that facilitates timely tick removal within a critical window that precedes the transmission of many tick‐borne pathogens ...

Wind tunnel blockage tests at Mach 5 of vacuum duct models for two sound radiation shields [PDF]

open access: yes
Two sound shield models with dummy vacuum exhaust ducts were tested in a Mach 5 pilot quiet tunnel. The first model simulates a new sound shield of 3 in. (7.62 cm) inside diameter and the second model is a shield of 4 in. (10.16 cm) inside diameter.

Primary thermometry triad at 6 mK in mesoscopic circuits

open access: yes, 2016
Quantum physics emerge and develop as temperature is reduced. Although mesoscopic electrical circuits constitute an outstanding platform to explore quantum behavior, the challenge in cooling the electrons impedes their potential.

Recent Advances in Laser‐Induced Graphene‐Based Gas Sensors: From Sensing Mechanisms to Biomedical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Laser‐induced graphene (LIG) provides a scalable, laser‐direct‐written route to porous graphene architecture with tunable chemistry and defect density. Through heterojunction engineering, catalytic functionalization, and intrinsic self‐heating, LIG achieves highly sensitive and selective detection of NOX, NH3, H2, and humidity, supporting next ...

DEM Investigations on the Mechanism of Earth Pressure Balanced Shielding Through Nonuniform Soils

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering
The increasing scarcity of urban spatial resources has led to the growing development of urban subways. The earth pressure balanced (EPB) shield machine has become one of the main tunnel boring machines in metro tunnel construction due to its economic ...
