Mature fault mechanics revealed by the highly efficient 2025 Mandalay earthquake

Nature Communications
Understanding the causes of variability in earthquake rupture characteristics, particularly the distribution of shallow slip and the extent of off-fault deformation, is crucial for refining seismic hazard models and understanding fundamental rupture ...

Intracrystalline Void‐Mediated Toughening of Brittle Crystals in Quail Eggshells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In quail eggshells, the high density and disordered arrangement of intracrystalline voids inhibit lattice cleavage, suppress long‐range crack propagation, and promote deformation twinning and quasi‐plasticity, serving as an essential toughening motif. We show that these voids remain within a narrow subcritical size range and therefore predominantly do ...

Neuromorphic Devices for Extreme Environments: State‐Variable Reliability and Stabilization Strategies

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Neuromorphic devices for extreme environments are interpreted through the physical states that store and process information. Radiation, temperature extremes, and vacuum can perturb vacancies, filaments, trapped charges, polarization, interfaces, and readout signals.

Bistable Isochoric Chiral Metamaterials with Reprogrammable Multiaxial Responses

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An isochoric bistable rotational unit cell enables in situ modification of internal contact conditions post‐fabrication, without altering the global envelope dimensions of the surrounding architecture. By selectively switching between open and closed states, the tessellated chiral metamaterial can reprogram its volumetric response, including bulk ...

In Situ Interfacial Assembly of Dynamic Semi‐Interpenetrating Biopolymer Networks for Robust and Mechanically Adaptive Droplet Interfaces

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A dynamic interfacial semi‐interpenetrating polymer network is constructed by sequential assembly of β‐sheet‐rich SF and CS‐RL. The SF framework provides mechanical strength, while dynamically associated CS‐RL enables local rearrangement, allowing droplets to rapidly reconfigure without loss of interfacial integrity.

Endosomal Escape of siRNA Polyplexes: A Molecular Dynamics Perspective on Underlying Mechanisms

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Molecular dynamics simulations reveal distinct endosomal escape mechanisms of siRNA nanoparticles, ranging from electrostatic membrane attachment to hydrophobic membrane fusion. Hydrophobic residues and anionic endosomal lipids emerge as key determinants of membrane disruption, linking molecular interactions to experimental delivery performance and ...

Ultra‐Thin Tow‐Based Discontinuous Composites—Material Overview and Aspirations

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Tow‐based discontinuous composites made from ultra‐thin tapes offer outstanding in‐plane mechanical properties. This material, inspired by Nacre, has high volume fraction of tapes exceeding 90 % and allows for quasi‐isotropic material plates less than 100 micrometer in thickness.

Heteroengineering‐Induced Electronic Reconstruction for Ammonium‐Ion Energy Storage

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An integrated electronic reconstruction behavior is induced by local heteroengineering on VO2(B) electrode material surface of NH4+ supercapacitor, rationally modulating the electronic structure, enabling enhanced intrinsic conductivity and extra driving force for NH4+ intercalation reaction.
