Development and optimization of a subgrade stiffness monitoring sensor using piezoelectric transducers in a laboratory testbed

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geo-Engineering
Pavement foundations are critical for structural longevity, yet current evaluation methods lack the capability for real-time, continuous monitoring of resilient modulus, particularly in subgrade layers where distress frequently originates.

Recent advances in multifunctional soft robots: A materials–structures–systems co‐design perspective for synergistic integration

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
Abstract Soft robots, engineered from highly compliant materials, offer superior adaptability and safety in unstructured environments compared to their rigid counterparts. Recent advancements, fueled by bio‐inspiration and material programmability, have led to the rapid co‐evolution of their core modules: actuation, sensing, protection, energy, and ...

Materials and Music: Selective Imperfection as a Generative Framework for Analysis, Creativity and Discovery

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.
Vibrations in matter, from spider webs to molecules, water to flames, share a grammar with music. We propose that creativity emerges when constraints force expansion beyond existing possibilities. Selective imperfection restores balance, enabling invention.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

A Comparison of Classical Constitutive Models for High‐Entropy Alloy Behavior: Effects of Medium Strain Rates and Temperature on Plastic Flow

open access: yesMaterials Genome Engineering Advances, EarlyView.
Four constitutive models are evaluated for FeCoNiCr and Al0.6FeCoNiCr HEAs under wide temperature and strain‐rate conditions. The predictive capabilities and limitations of each model are then critically assessed, with particular emphasis on strain rate sensitivity, temperature dependence, and physically unrealistic responses at extreme loading ...
