Deep Learning-Accelerated Designs of Tunable Magneto-Mechanical Metamaterials

Chunping Ma et al.

Summary: This article introduces an inverse design framework for active metamaterials using magneto-mechanical actuation. The framework utilizes a deep residual network to accelerate the design process and achieve predetermined strains in the metamaterials. The designed complex metamaterials are fabricated using a direct-ink-writing printing method of magnetic soft materials. The framework opens avenues for designing active metamaterials with desired mechanical, acoustic, thermal, and electromagnetic properties.

4D printing of shape memory polymer composites: A review on fabrication techniques, applications, and future perspectives

Muhammad Yasir Khalid et al.

Summary: In recent years, there has been increasing interest in additively manufactured shape memory polymers (SMPs) and their multi-functional composites. 4D printing, which utilizes time-responsive programmable materials, has been a fascinating field in additive manufacturing. Stimuli-responsive polymers are capable of retaining their original shapes when exposed to diverse external stimuli. The integration of 4D printing and shape memory polymer composites (SMPCs) has led to rapid technological advancements in smart and multi-functional materials. The use of 4D printing for SMPCs has enabled exploration of various engineering applications.

Magnetic Resonance Guided Navigation of Untethered Microgrippers

Arijit Ghosh et al.

Summary: The study optimized the magnetic dipole moment of untethered thermally responsive grippers for efficient coupling to external magnetic resonance (MR) fields. Gripper encapsulation in a millimeter sized wax pellet reduces friction with surrounding tissue and enables MR Navigation (MRN) of a 700 μm sized microgripper within narrow channels in tissue phantoms and in an ex vivo porcine esophagus. The results provide convincing proof-of-concept evidence that it is possible to sequentially image, move, and guide a submillimeter functional microsurgical tool in tissue conduits using a commercial preclinical MR system, which is an important step towards the clinical translation of untethered microtools in combination with prior demonstrations of physiologically responsive in vivo biopsy.
