Bioactive materials developed through three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting technology
exhibit static nature and don't respond to the dynamic changes occurred in the human body …

Magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) composite actuators are extraordinary since they can
be controlled remotely, move swiftly, adapt to rough surfaces, and engage with humans in a …

Hard-magnetic soft materials (hMSMs) are smart composites that consist of a mechanically
soft polymer matrix impregnated with mechanically hard magnetic filler particles. This dual …

One of the major challenges in modern robotics is controlling micromanipulation by active
and adaptive materials. In the respiratory system, such actuation enables pathogen …

The last decade has witnessed the emergence of magneto-active polymers (MAPs) as one
of the most advanced multi-functional soft composites. Depending on the magnetisation …

Soft magnetic composites are exceptional because they can be controlled remotely, move
quickly, conform to hard things, and interact with people safely. However, even with all these …

Limbless crawling on land requires breaking symmetry of the friction with the ground and
exploiting an actuation mechanism to generate propulsive forces. Here, kirigami cuts are …

Hard‐magnetic soft materials (HMSMs) are particulate composites that particles with high
coercivity are dispersed in a soft matrix. Since applying the magnetic loading induces a body …

Magnetic soft robots are promising for diverse applications, since they can achieve
multimodal locomotion through programming magnetization. However, reprogrammable …

Many biological systems are made to operate more quickly, efficiently, and with more power
by storing elastic energy. This work introduces a straightforward bioinspired design for the …
