Physical Intelligence in Small‐Scale Robots and Machines
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.“Physical intelligence” (PI) empowers biological organisms and artificial machines, especially at the small scales, to perceive, adapt, and even reshape their complex, dynamic, and unstructured operation environments. This review summarizes recent milestones and future directions of PI in small‐scale robots and machines.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Ordered three‐dimensional anodic aluminum oxide (3D‐AAO) nanoarchitectures with longitudinal and transverse pores enable architecture‐driven metamaterials. The review maps fabrication advances, including hybrid pulse anodization, and shows how 3D‐AAO templates tailor properties across magnetism, energy, catalysis, and sensing.

Rotary 4D Printing of Programmable Metamaterials on Sustainable 4D Mandrel
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.The paper introduces open, rotary 4D printing of programmable tubular metamaterials. It presents an open, non‐planar path‐to‐G‐code pipeline and shape‐changing rotary mandrel that enable support‐free fabrication and multi‐stimuli actuation. Experiments and FEA validate the mentioned features and stress redistribution.
