Operating a Positive Temperature Coefficient Water Heater Powered by Photovoltaic Panels

open access: yesSolar
Domestic water heaters traditionally use natural gas or electric resistance to heat stored water. A gas water heater relies on a non-renewable resource, while an electric water heater might rely on electricity generated by a non-renewable resource.

Autonomous Folding of Soft Matter From Living Polymers

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Origami structures are endowed with “living” polymer creases that grow, remodel, and stiffen in response to nutrient solutions. This post‐fabrication growth enables autonomous folding, iterative regrowth, and mechanical tuning involving origami assemblies, such as cranes, Miura‐ori tessellations, rigid and non‐rigid square‐twist patterns, establishing ...
