Spatially Regulated Silicon Clusters in Trimodal Composite Anodes for High‐Energy Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A trimodal anode architecture spatially regulates silicon clusters within confined interstitial environments formed by graphite and contorted hexabenzocoronene. This confinement suppresses silicon aggregation and localized stress while enabling efficient Li‐ion transport, achieving high‐capacity, stable lithium‐ion batteries.

Façade Geometry, Orientation, and Window-to-Wall Ratio: An integrated Energy and Daylight performance study for Kathmandu’s temperate climate

Journal of Daylighting
Window-to-Wall Ratio (WWR) influences building energy and daylight performance, yet its implications depend on both façade orientation and geometry. In rapidly urbanizing regions lacking energy regulations, WWR decisions are often made without systematic

APPLICATION OF DELIGHTING TO OPTIMIZE WINDOW-TO-WALL RATIO (WWR) IN BUILDINGS IN INDIAN CLIMATIC CONDITIONS

Archives for Technical Sciences
This research focuses on the energy performance of buildings with glass windows to allow daylight in three different locations in India. The utilization of glass in modern commercial buildings is rapidly increasing for aesthetic views and daylighting through the glazing. Much research has been conducted on WWR and daylight integration into the building

Acetoacetates Derived From Vegetable Oils: A Platform for Tailor‐Made Vinylogous Urethane Foams

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A renewable vegetable oil is converted into acetoacetate‐functionalized precursors for the preparation of catalyst‐free vinylogous urethane foams. Room‐temperature foaming with n‐pentane generates lightweight cellular materials, while the choice of amine enables control over foam structure and mechanical properties.

Architecture‐Driven Functional Coupling in Vertically Aligned Nanocomposites

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Vertically aligned nanocomposites define a growth‐engineered architecture in which vertical interfaces, strain fields, defect pathways, and phase connectivity are created simultaneously. This review shows how these architectural features couple ferroic, optical, ionic, electrochemical, and device responses, establishing design rules and open challenges

A Magneto‐Mechanically Activated Nerve Guidance Conduit Promotes Peripheral Nerve Regeneration via TIMP1‐Mediated Membrane Tension Transfer

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a magneto‐mechanical strategy that incorporates FP@MSCs into an aligned PCL/GelMA nerve guidance conduit. Magnetic stimulation increases membrane tension in FP@MSCs, triggering cytoskeletal remodeling, Schwann cell‐like differentiation, and TIMP1 secretion. TIMP1 activates ITGB1/CD63–FAK signaling in NE‐4C cells, increasing membrane
