Highly stretchable, elastic, and ionic conductive hydrogel for artificial soft electronics by Zhou, Yang, Wan, Changjin, Yang, Yongsheng, Yang, Hui, Wang, Shancheng, Dai, Zhendong, Ji, Keju, Jiang, Hui, Chen, Xiaodong, Long, Yi

“…The proposed ionic conductive hydrogel is achieved by physically cross-linking the tough biocompatible polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) gel as the matrix and embedding hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) biopolymer fibers inside matrix followed by salt solution soaking. The wrinkle and dense structure induced by salting in PVA matrix provides large stress (1.3 MPa) and strain (975%). …”

Elongated magma plumbing system beneath the Coso volcanic field, California, constrained by seismic reflection tomography by Wang, Dongdong, Wu, Shucheng, Li, Tianjue, Tong, Ping, Gao, Yongxin

“…We find that the upper-middle crustal low-velocity body dips southwards into the lower crust, extending to regions beneath the Indian Wells Valley and the Garlock Fault at depth greater than 20 km. We ascribe the lower crustal low-velocity body (more than 4% Vp reduction) to a basaltic magma reservoir that connects the melts in the uppermost mantle with the eruptible rhyolitic reservoir at shallower depths. …”
