Membrane‐Mediated Force Transduction Drives Stick‐Slip Motion of Lipid Vesicles

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A rotating magnetic field actuates a ferromagnetic particle inside a lipid vesicle, generating internal flows that induce stick‐slip propulsion near a surface. Membrane properties—elasticity, excess area, and phase behavior—modulate this motion by shaping stress dissipation and force transduction.

Finger pad friction and tactile perception of laser treated, stamped and cold rolled micro-structured stainless steel sheet surfaces

Friction, 2017
Tactile perception is a complex system, which depends on frictional interactions between skin and counter-body. The contact mechanics of tactile friction is governed by many factors such as the state and properties of skin and counter-body.

Visualizing and Quantifying Impact with Mechanochromic Sensing Paints Based on Self‐Assembled Polydiacetylene‐Silk Core‐Shell Vesicles

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tracking physical impacts is important in many fields. Self‐assembled microparticles made from polydiacetylene and silk fibroin that change color from blue to red when hit can provide an alternative approach to traditional mechanical transducers, quantitatively visualizing impact with responses ranging from <100 to 770 N.

High-frequency ultrasonic speckle velocimetry in sheared complex fluids

, 2003
High-frequency ultrasonic pulses at 36 MHz are used to measure velocity profiles in a complex fluid sheared in the Couette geometry. Our technique is based on time-domain cross-correlation of ultrasonic speckle signals backscattered by the moving medium.

Rotary Electromechanical System Integrating Non‐Reciprocal Memory and Combinational Logic

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Rotational bistability, interfaced through a conductive network with switchable contacts, unifies logic operations and mechanical memory within a rotary electromechanical system. The author demonstrates how serially coupled configurations of rotationally bistable modules enable reprogrammable sequential logic governed by mechanical state transition and
