Abstract: The ability to actuate liquids remains a fundamental challenge in smart microsystems, such as those for soft robotics, where devices often need to conform to either natural or three-dimensional solid shapes, in various orientations. Here,… read more here.

Abstract: Inspired by the impressive shape reconfigurability in natural systems, stimulus-responsive soft materials have been exploited to enable reconfigurable surface changes, relying on controllable deformations inner soft materials and spatiotemporally varying external stimuli. Among these, light… read more here.
