The peeling apart of layered materials is common in nature and has been used by humans
in myriad applications since prehistoric times. Over the past century, a wide range of peel …

Interactions between fluid flow and elastic structures are important in many naturally
occurring and engineered systems. This review collects and organizes recent theoretical …

Anthropomorphic robotic manipulators have high grasp mobility and task flexibility but
struggle to match the practical strength of parallel jaw grippers. Gecko-inspired adhesives …

As we enter the age of designer matter—where objects can morph and change shape on
command—what tools do we need to create shape-shifting structures? At the heart of an …

Lizard tail autotomy is an antipredator strategy consisting of sturdy attachment at regular
times but quick detachment during need. We propose a biomimetic fracture model of lizard …

Microfluidic devices manufactured from soft polymeric materials have emerged as a
paradigm for cheap, disposable and easy-to-prototype fluidic platforms for integrating …

This work describes a method in which the digital image correlation (DIC) method and finite
element analysis (FEA) were used to create a quasi-static mixed-mode fracture envelope for …

In this study, the crack lengths in adhesively bonded double cantilever beam (DCB) test
specimens have been determined using the digital image correlation technique in …

Aeroengines in operational service were susceptible to the ingestion of small, hard particles,
resulting in foreign object damage (FOD) on rotating blades. Such particles impacting the …

In this study, we propose a physics-informed neural networks algorithm that integrates a
simplified physical model and neural networks for the settlement analysis and prediction of …
