Plasma membranes appear as deformable systems wherein molecules are free to move and diffuse giving rise to condensed microdomains (composed of ordered lipids, transmembrane proteins and cholesterol) surrounded by disordered lipid molecules. Such den

Self-locking structures are often studied in macroscopic energy absorbers, but the concept of self-locking can also be effectively applied at the nanoscale. In particular, we can engineer self-locking mechanisms at the molecular level through careful

We report the scientific and technical queries regarding the article reported by Kim et al.1 on the mechanical properties of graphene-poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) composites. Our analysis finds that the current experimental data is insufficient t

Suture joints contribute to the exceptional combination of stiffness, strength, toughness and efficient load bearing and transmission of many biological structures like the cranium or ammonite fossil shells. However, their role in the attenuation of

Large scale elastic metamaterials have recently attracted increasing interest in the scientific community for their potential as passive isolation structures for seismic waves. In particular, so-called “seismic shields” have been proposed for the

Surfaces capable of delaying the frosting passively and facilitating its removal are highly desirable in fields where ice introduces inefficiencies and risks. Coalescence jumping, enabled by highly hydrophobic surfaces, is already exploited to slow d

Multiscale phenomena exhibit complex structure-function relationships, and predicting their macroscopic behavior requires deducing differential equations at different scales. The complexity of these equations and the number of essential parameters ma

Coalescence-jumping of condensation droplets is widely studied for anti-icing, condensation heat transfer, water harvesting and self-cleaning. Another phenomenon that is arousing interest for potential enhancements is the individual droplet self-ejec

When humidified at different moisture conditions, restrained spider silk fibers can exhibit a very high supercontraction phenomenon. The hydration water molecules induce a Hydrogen-bonds disruption process that, due to entropic effects, decreases the

Hydrogel-based soft actuators can operate in sensitive environments, bridging the gap of rigid machines interacting with soft matter. However, while stimuli-responsive hydrogels can undergo extreme reversible volume changes of up to ~90%, water trans
