Adaptable Tile‐Based Pneumatic Origami through Structurally Coupled Localized Actuation
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This article presents tile‐based pneumatic origami structures with rigid tiles and flexible fabric creases, achieving adaptable properties including morphing shape, selective multistability, and tunable stiffness. Independently pressurized folding bladders at each crease enable structurally coupled localized actuation of origami structures.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.An idea of designing novel sensors is proposed by creating appropriate Schottky barriers and vacancies between isomorphous Core‐CuOii/ Shell‐CuOi secondary microspheres and enhancing catalytic and spill‐over effects, and electronegativity via spontaneous biphasic separation, self‐assembly, and trace‐Ni‐doping.

Cyclic permutation-time symmetric structure with coupled gain-loss microcavities
, 2015 We study the coupled even number of microcavities with the balanced gain and loss between any pair of their neighboring components. The effective non-Hermitian Hamiltonian for such structure has the cyclic permutation-time symmetry with respect to the ...

Neonatal Noise Exposure and Noise Reduction During Transport
, 2021 Inter-hospital transport of sick neonates for specialist care is often necessary, but older studies suggest it may expose them to high levels of noise that may cause distress, autonomic instability and even noise induced hearing loss (NIHL). There have been advances in transport equipment standards, but little effort to address this issue.
