3D‐Printed Porous Hydroxyapatite Formed via Enzymatic Mineralization
Bone combines lightness, strength, and the ability to heal, inspiring new materials design. This work introduces a room‐temperature, enzyme‐mediated 3D printing method to create porous hydroxyapatite scaffolds. The process avoids energy‐intensive sintering, preserves bioactivity, and allows control over porosity and mineralization.

Bio‐Inspired Molecular Events in Poly(Ionic Liquids)
Originating from dipolar and polar inter‐ and intra‐chain interactions of the building blocks, the topologies and morphologies of poly(ionic liquids) (PIL) govern their nano‐ and micro‐processibility. Modulating the interactions of cation‐anion pairs with aliphatic dipolar components enables the tunability of properties, facilitated by “bottom‐up ...

Novel Functional Materials via 3D Printing by Vat Photopolymerization
This Perspective systematically analyzes strategies for incorporating functionalities into 3D‐printed materials via Vat Photopolymerization (VP). It explores the spectrum of achievable functionalities in recently reported novel materials—such as conductive, energy‐storing, biodegradable, stimuli‐responsive, self‐healing, shape‐memory, biomaterials, and

Numerical study on semi-supported steel composite shear wall at the edges under near and far-fault loading [PDF]
The shear wall is one of the most important systems to resist lateral loads in the building. In addition to controlling the lateral displacement of the structure and dealing with the lateral force, this system significantly increases the stiffness of the

Flow through a nozzle is a common component of most fluid‐based polymer processing techniques such as spray drying, inkjet printing, extrusion. An ultrahigh molecular weight multi‐mechanophore system is used to probe the differences in the distribution of mechanical activation observed between nozzle flow and ultrasonication; the gold standard ...

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THE SEISMIC BEHAVIOR OF A SHEAR WALL WITH CONCRETE-FILLED STEEL TUBULAR FRAMES AND SLITS [PDF]
This paper proposes a new type of composite shear wall with concrete-filled steel tubular frames and artificial vertical slits. The seismic behaviour of this new shear wall is studied by using a cyclic loading test.
