Vascular diseases are increasing health problems affecting > 25 million individuals in westernized societies. Such patients could benefit from transplantation of tissue-engineered vascular grafts using autologous cells. One challenge that has limited this development is the need for cell isolation, and risks associate…

We review the scientific history of random close packing (RCP) of equal spheres, advocated by J D Bernal as a more plausible alternative to the non-ideal gas or imperfect crystal as a structural model of simple liquids. After decades of neglect, computer experiments are revealing a central role for RCP in the theory o…

In this work, SMPUs with non-planar ring structures in the hard segments display a low degree of phase separation but excellent shape recoverability (shape recovery rate ∼99% with 500% strain). The accepted wisdom is that there are two criteria for SMPUs possessing good shape recoverability: (i) high degree of phase s…

We present the design, simulation, fabrication, and characterization of an out-of-plane reconfiguration of terahertz (THz) U-shape metamaterial. The U-shape metamaterial is consisted of bilayer cantilevers with different coefficient of thermal expansion. The electromagnetic tunability of U-shape metamaterial is accomp…

Pr x Ce 1– x O 2−δ can potentially serve as both the cathode and anode in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), given that it exhibits significant mixed ionic-electronic conductivity (MIEC) under both cathodic and anodic conditions. While MIEC is strongly dependent on oxygen nonstoichiometry (δ), there have been few ways to…
