Patterned Colouring via Variable-Speed Single Stretching
Inventions, 2022 We demonstrate a cost-effective, highly reliable/stable and environmentally friendly approach for the patterned colouring of a commercial transparent polyethylene terephthalate (PET). We show that different colour patterns (transparent, white/translucent,

Electrospun Fiber as a Facile Means of Studying Silver Nanowires under Mechanical Stretching
Small Science, 2023 It is a great challenge to study the mechanical property of nanomaterials because it is difficult to get a hold of them and apply force. A convenient alternative method via electrospun fibers is shown, where silica‐coated fivefold twinned silver ...

Current Biology, 2020 Many of us know about stretch reflexes from the doctor's office, when a physician taps the tendon near our kneecap to elicit a quick knee extension. This procedure is used as a diagnostic tool to determine the integrity of the spinal cord and the extension response it elicits may seem otherwise useless. In fact, the tendon tap taps into one aspect of a
