Mechanically Assisted Magnetic Actuation in Ceramic‐Based Microscrolls for Fast and Durable Soft Robotic Systems

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Ceramic‐based V2O5/Fe3O4 hybrid films are shaped into butterfly‐proboscis‐inspired microscroll actuators. Magnetic triggering initiates unrolling, while geometry‐programmed elastic strain energy drives rapid recoil, enabling fast, reversible, durable, and load‐bearing actuation under near‐field magnetic stimulation.

Jean-Marie Souriau’s Symplectic Foliation Model of Sadi Carnot’s Thermodynamics

The explanation of thermodynamics through geometric models was initiated by seminal figures such as Carnot, Gibbs, Duhem, Reeb, and Carathéodory. Only recently, however, has the symplectic foliation model, introduced within the domain of geometric

Review of Inorganic Separator Engineering for Next‐Generation Lithium–Sulfur Batteries: Compromise or Cornerstone?

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Inorganic compound‐modified separators transform lithium–sulfur batteries from passive polysulfide confinement to active reaction‐pathway regulation. A Practical Relevance Index (PRI)‐guided framework bridges interfacial chemistry of inorganic separators with practical constraints, establishing unified design principles for scalable, high‐energy ...

Out of the Crystalline Comfort Zone: Sampling the Initial Oxide Formation At Cu(111)

Advanced Science
Oxidizing transition metal surfaces are generally characterized by an increasing heterogeneity at simultaneous lowering of crystalline order. This complexity eludes present‐day first‐principles descriptions, with predictive‐quality surface phase diagrams

Atomic‐Scale Detection of Néel Vector Switching in the Single‐Layer A‐Type Antiferromagnet Cr2S3‐2D

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Interfacial electron donation from graphene redistributes charge within single‐layer Cr2S3‐2D, preferentially accumulating at the lower Cr/S plane. The resulting minute magnetic imbalance lifts the equivalence of the two magnetic sublayers, enabling atomic‐resolution identification and field‐induced control of Néel‐vector states in a two‐dimensional A ...

Second law of thermodynamics and the failure of rock materials [PDF]

, 2001
The relation of nonequilibrium thermodynamics to some failure and fracture theories of rock mechanics is investigated. The basic concepts are given to connect failure to the properties of material equations describing the elastic properties.

Beyond Nanoporosity: A CO2‐Conditioned Glassy Matrix Contributes to the Brittle‐to‐Ductile Transition of Nanocellular Polyetherimide

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The mechanical performance of nanocellular polyetherimide cannot be explained by nanoporosity alone. It is shown that CO2 saturation and desorption leave a distinct mechanical signature in the glassy matrix before foaming. This matrix contribution provides a new route to understand and optimize the brittle to ductile transition in nanocellular polymers.

Extreme Bond Ionicity in Mg─Te Chalcogenides for Ultrathin Low Voltage Selector‐Only Memory beyond the Leakage Scaling Limit

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Mg─Te chalcogenides address the leakage scaling trade‐off in ultrathin selector‐only memory. Structural partitioning in multiphase Mg─Te, combined with highly ionic Mg─Te bonding and Hf interfacial engineering, supports reliable 5 nm thickness operation at low write voltage with suppressed leakage current, narrow threshold voltage distributions, 10 ns ...
