Numerical study of the steel plate shear walls with different corrugation shapes inside the sandwich panels under the seismic loading condition [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Advances
Steel plate shear walls are widely employed as lateral force-resisting systems in low- to high-rise buildings. While the infill plate critically influences cyclic performance, conventional flat plates exhibit limited energy dissipation and susceptibility

Internal Structure, Kinematics, and Prehistory of Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A), Brooks Range, Alaska

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page 645-667, October/December 2026.
ABSTRACT Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A)—one of hundreds of FDLs in the Brooks Range of northern Alaska—is a slow‐moving landslide in permafrost that has been the subject of research since 2008 due to its close proximity to the Dalton Highway. Here, we synthesize more than a decade's worth of climate and surface measurements of monitored FDLs, and the ...

Design and Characterization of a Two‐Dimensional Soft Array Based on Cooperative Dielectric Elastomer Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 74, 14 September 2026.
A fully polymeric two‐dimensional array of Dielectric Elastomers enables self‐sensing, cooperative actuation, and large‐stroke operation in a DE‐based autonomous conveyor. Based only on voltage and current measurements at actuator level, the system detects the presence of a ball and subsequently drives it toward a target position.
