Exploring the Use and Impact of Composite Materials in Robotics: A Systematic Review

Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 6, Page 4037-4060, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Lightweight and high‐strength materials are important in robotics, as structural design impacts efficiency, payload capacity, and energy consumption. Composite materials, with their superior stiffness‐to‐weight ratios and multifunctional properties, offer clear advantages over conventional metals and polymers.

The Theory of Critical Distances for Predicting the Static Failure of Double‐Lap Bolted Joints With Conventional and Additively Manufactured 316L Stainless Steel Inner Plates

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 3831-3853, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study assesses the accuracy of the theory of critical distances applied in the form of the point method in predicting the static strength of 316L stainless steel double‐lap shear bolted connections under static tensile loading. Single‐ and double‐bolt configurations were tested using inner plates manufactured from conventional material ...

Evolution of P‐wave Anisotropy as an Indicator of Pre‐failure Deformation in Shale

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Understanding the multiscale mechanical behavior of clay‐rich rocks is critical for assessing fault reactivation and the long‐term integrity of underground waste repositories. This study investigates the evolution of microdeformation in Tournemire's shale samples under compressive stress by integrating high‐resolution imaging (from an ...

Engineering Layered Magnetic Hydrogels for Cell Placement via Shear and Magnetic Field‐Induced Assembly

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 44, 7 August 2026.
Magnetic particles are organized into layered architectures by combining shear flow and magnetic fields, with the resulting structures governed by appropriate Mason numbers. The programmed assemblies provide spatial guidance for cell placement, linking field‐controlled self‐assembly, flow‐induced structuring and biological organization.

Evolution law of the soil shear band in a triaxial test based on photogrammetry technology

工程科学学报
A triaxial test is a common method for studying the shear strength of soil. This test simulates actual engineering conditions; therefore, the evolution law of the shear band is universal.
