Exploiting Device Deformability for Fluid and Particle Manipulation
Deformable devices enable fluid and particle manipulation modes that are inaccessible to rigid platforms. This review examines soft materials and architectures that translate controlled deformation into microscale fluid operations such as pumping, valving, mixing, and particle handling.

Low‐Cost Ambient Pressure Drying Approach for Highly Porous Nanomaterial Structures
We propose a simple, low‐cost method to dry highly porous nanomaterial structures at ambient temperature and pressure. Using low surface tension solvents, this technique minimizes capillary forces, preventing pore collapse and material shrinkage. This bypasses the need for expensive and size‐limiting critical point drying, enabling scalable production ...

Alloy Qualification for Producing Quench and Tempered Plate Steels with Extra‐Heavy Gage
This study develops alloy concepts for ultraheavy steel plates (>100 mm) with ≥690 MPa yield strength. Through dilatometry and Jominy testing, the effects of Mo, Ni, and B on hardenability are quantified. A synergy between 0.5% Mo and 0.5%–1.0% Ni ensures core strength at low cooling rates, while boron microalloying suppresses ferrite and promotes ...

Niobium cathodic cage duplex treatment is applied to VP20TS steel to evaluate the influence of surface roughness and temperature on coating performance. Results show that higher temperatures promote thicker nitride layers and increased microhardness, while finer surface preparation enhances adhesion and wear resistance, revealing optimal conditions for
