Material Extrusion‐Enabled Soft Multimodal Pressure Sensors With Fabrication‐Embedded Stretch‐Induced Strain Insensitivity

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Material extrusion‐based additive manufacturing integrates mechanically anisotropic electrospun piezoelectric composite microfibers with stretchable silver electrodes into a three‐dimensional serpentine architecture to realize stretch‐induced strain‐insensitive pressure sensors, maintaining a stable sensing performance under tensile strains up to 30 ...

Simple and detailed modeling of corrosion‐affected slender shear critical RC beams

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The corrosion of steel bars compromises both the safety and the serviceability of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Consequently, reliable tools are required to estimate the detrimental effects of corrosion on the structural response of RC members subjected to transverse loads.

A New Paradigm for Understanding the Rheology and Processability of Poly(p‐Phenylene Terephthalamide) Liquid‐Crystalline Solutions

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 34, September 10, 2026.
Kevlar is traditionally modeled as a rigid‐rod polymer, yet rheological behavior deviates from this assumption. The review introduces a novel “twist‐tie” entanglement theory for aramid polymer chains in the nematic liquid crystal state, providing a molecular explanation for deviations from rigid‐rod models. Understanding twist‐tie entanglement dynamics

Synergistic Effects of Salinization and Artificial Root Exudates on Soil Phosphatase Activity in Coastal Soil

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 9222-9235, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Coastal soil salinization from rising seawater levels has adverse impacts on soil function, seed germination, and plant growth. Root exudates play a key role in supporting microbial activity, nutrient cycling, and plant health, yet little is known about the combined effects of salinization and the addition of artificial root exudates (AREs) on

Liquid Crystal Elastomers Filaments for Adaptive Textiles and Soft Robotics: A Processing‐Centric Review

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, Volume 47, Issue 15, 4 August 2026.
Liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) filaments are fabricated through extrusion with in‐process UV curing, enabling controlled flow alignment and network locking of mesogens. The resulting structure responds to thermal or optical stimuli, inducing molecular reorientation and macroscopic contraction.

Optimization of Arthroscopic All‐Inside Meniscus Repair With a Probe

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Meniscal preservation is essential for knee function and long‐term joint health. All‐inside meniscus repair achieves outcomes comparable to the inside‐out technique, but technical challenges remain, including limited working space, suture cut‐out in degenerative tissue, unfavorable suture angles, and risk of cartilage injury or arthroscope ...
