Machine Learning‐Enhanced Modular Ionic Skin for Broad‐Spectrum Multimodal Discriminability in Bidirectional Human–Robot Interaction

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A machine learning‐enhanced modular ionic skin with broad‐spectrum multimodal sensing is realized through a synergistic material–algorithm optimization strategy. This strategy involves hard‐segment‐modulated 1D/2D/3D‐ionic conductors and a data‐driven decoupling model trained on a curated multi‐stimuli dataset.

Additively Manufacturable High‐Strength Aluminum Alloys with Coarsening‐Resistant Microstructures Achieved via Rapid Solidification

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Rapid solidification in laser additive manufacturing facilitates the precipitation of metastable phases in aluminum alloys. These metastable phases significantly enhance the strength by forming a high‐volume fraction of precipitates with an order of magnitude reduced sizes and smaller interspacing, effectively impeding dislocation motion. Consequestly,
