Polyfluorinated crosslinker-based solid polymer electrolytes for long-cycling 4.5 V lithium metal batteries by Tang, Lingfei, Chen, Bowen, Zhang, Zhonghan, Ma, Changqi, Chen, Junchao, Huang, Yage, Zhang, Fengrui, Dong, Qingyu, Xue, Guoyong, Chen, Daiqian, Hu, Chenji, Li, Shuzhou, Liu, Zheng, Shen, Yanbin, Chen, Qi, Chen, Liwei

“…The crosslinked network facilitates transmission of the inductive electron-withdrawing effect of polyfluorinated segments. As a result, polyfluorinated crosslinked SPE exhibits a wide ESW, and the Li|SPE|LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 cell with a cutoff voltage of 4.5 V delivers a high discharge specific capacity of ~164.19 mAh g-1 at 0.5 C and capacity retention of ~90% after 200 cycles. …”

Mechanistic framework for reduced-order models in soft materials: Application to three-dimensional granular intrusion by Agarwal, Shashank, Goldman, Daniel I., Kamrin, Ken

“…Soft materials often display complex behaviors that transition through apparent solid- and fluid-like regimes. While a growing number of microscale simulation methods exist for these materials, reduced-order models that encapsulate the macroscale physics are often desired to predict how external bodies interact with soft media. …”

A length-adjustable vacuum-powered artificial muscle for wearable physiotherapy assistance in infants by Gollob, Samuel Dutra, Mendoza, Mijaíl Jaén, Koo, Bon Ho Brandon, Centeno, Esteban, Vela, Emir A., Roche, Ellen T.

“…This is crucial in applications such as infant physical therapy where the device must adapt to the growth of the patient during a 6-month treatment regime without actuator replacement. The ability to adjust the length of the VPAM on demand offers a significant advantage over traditional fixed-length actuators, making it a promising solution for soft robotics. …”

Inferring electrospray emission characteristics from molecular dynamics and simulated retarding potential analysis by Schroeder, Madeleine, Gallud, Ximo, Petro, Elaine, Jia-Richards, Oliver, Lozano, Paulo C

“…In this work, we present coordinated molecular dynamics, ion cluster acceleration, and retarding potential analysis simulations to determine cluster fragmentation behavior in a realistic emitter geometry for electrosprays operating in the pure ionic regime. Molecular dynamics simulations are used to determine the fragmentation rates of ionic liquid clusters as a function of internal energy, electric field strength, and cluster size. …”

Point defect–dislocation interactions in BEOL-compatible Ge-on-Si epitaxy by Postelnicu, Eveline, Wen, Rui-Tao, Ma, Danhao, Wang, Baoming, Wada, Kazumi, Michel, Jurgen, Kimerling, Lionel C

“…We also observe that 90° sessile dislocations identified via transmission electron microscopy are annihilated in the same temperature regime, which is evidence for point defect-mediated climb. …”

Complexity of High-Dimensional Identity Testing with Coordinate Conditional Sampling by Blanca, Antonio, Chen, Zongchen, Stefankovic, Daniel, Vigoda, Eric

“…We also prove a computational phase transition: for a well-studied class of -dimensional distributions, specifically sparse antiferromagnetic Ising models over {+1, −1} , we show that in the regime where approximate tensorization of entropy fails, there is no efficient identity testing algorithm unless RP = NP. …”

The Matter of the Hold: Housing futures and the paradigm of the ship by Donovan, Inge, Pankhurst, David

“…In light of the increasing shift towards buildings as storehouses of material to be held for future reuse, and as vessels of carbon sequestration, our thesis explores how design for the uneven, yet cyclical ebbs and flows of renewable resources erodes architecture’s traditionally rigid temporal boundaries of planning, construction, and occupancy, and produces temporally dynamic regimes of figure and form. The collection, administration and reconfiguration of waste materials results in the creation of new, regenerative forms of collective living that challenge the boom-and-bust logic of investment in public infrastructures.…”
