We propose a new concept of self-healing soft material that does not require external
actuation to heal after rupture. This consists of a sticky and soft elastomeric matrix filled with …

We propose a magnetic field-induced asymmetric mechanical metamaterial. The tunable
metamaterial integrates hard-Magnetic Active Elastomers (hMAEs) into the microstructural …

Pre-existing flaws in highly stretchable elastomers trigger fracture under large deformations.
For multifunctional materials, fracture mechanics may be influenced by additional physical …

This work offers a comprehensive overview of how gravity affects soft materials, with a
particular emphasis on gravity‐induced instability. Soft materials, including biological …

We propose a design of a metamaterial for magnetically tunable propagation of nonlinear
vector solitary waves. The metamaterial consists of a periodic array of units of hard-magnetic …

We study the magneto-mechanical behavior of periodic laminates made of hard-magnetic
active elastomers (HMAEs). We formulate the amended free-energy function for HMAEs, and …

The quantitative characterization of macroscopic properties of 0-3 polymer-based
magnetoelectric (ME) composites is the basis of their application, and the meso-structure is …

Magnetorheological elastomers (MRE) can change their shape and properties when
activated by an external magnetic field. The attractive tunable properties of this stimuli …

Hard-magnetic soft robots can form diverse soft-body deformation modes and safely interact
with their surrounding environment, offering great promise in performing complex functions …

The magnetoelastic primary resonance and bifurcation of an axially moving ferromagnetic
plate under harmonic magnetic force are investigated. In harmonic magnetic field, the …
