Enhancing search efficiency in large-scale constrained multi-objective optimization using a decision variable importance matrix

Existing constrained multi-objective evolutionary algorithms (CMOEAs) encounter significant challenges in solving large-scale constrained multi-objective optimization problems (LSCMOPs), as the exponentially increasing search space severely restricts their optimization efficiency...

PRP‐Integrated Conductive Hydrogels With Dynamic Crosslinking for Accelerated Wound Healing and Physiological Monitoring

ABSTRACT The capability to simultaneously promote wound healing and enable real‐time monitoring is critical for effective wound management, especially in dynamic and infection‐prone regions such as joints, yet unmet needs remain in clinical practice. Herein, we present a multifun...

Constructing Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Dendronized π‐Conjugated Polymers for Efficient Non‐Doped Polymer Light‐Emitting Diodes

ABSTRACT Highly efficient non‐doped polymer light‐emitting diodes (PLEDs) are under great challenge due to inherently structural disorder and unsatisfied carrier transporting capability of conventional linear polymeric emitters in aggregated state, severely hampering their applic...

Sulfate Groups Modulate the Protective Effects of Laminaria japonica Fucoidan against High-Fat Diet-Induced Intestinal Mucus Layer Injury via Gut Microbiota Regulation and Metabolic Profiling

Abstract Sulfate groups are key to fucoidan’s protection against intestinal mucus barrier damage, but their exact mechanisms remain unclear. This study compared native fucoidan (Fud, sulfate content 26.6%) and desulfated fucoidan (dsFud, sulfate content 2.2%) in a high-fat diet-i...

A multi-co-chaperone pre-secretion assembly directs type VI secretion system toxin delivery

Bacterial toxins are secreted through cell-envelope apparatuses, but the pre-secretion delivery process to the type VI secretion apparatus for the toxin proteins that are encoded separately in the genome is largely elusive. Here we show that a nuclease toxin in Myxococcus xanthus...

Carbon nanotubes serving as fixed and flowable beds for enhanced methane storage in hydrates

Achieving the rapid formation of methane hydrates together with high density is critical to utilize this hydrate-based energy storage technology. Herein, CNTs were adopted as the media for methane hydrate formation, which were designed as fixed or flowable beds by regulating the...

Polarized light and size control in modulating the photothermal performance of titanium nitride nanobipyramid

Plasmonic nanostructures have received considerable attention for solar photothermal conversion due to their strong light absorption and efficient heat generation. However, conventional noble-metal plasmonic materials suffer from high cost, limited thermal stability, and inadequa...

The PTPN1/N2 Peptide Inhibitor Achieves Potent, Long-Acting Glycemic Control and Weight-Loss Dual Efficacy in Mice

Abstract Type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity are closely linked metabolic disorders driven by insulin and leptin resistance. Current long-acting therapies capable of addressing both conditions are dominated by incretin-based agents, which primarily achieve efficacy through appet...

Recent Advances in Lithium Sulfide Preparation Routes: Thermodynamics, Phase Behavior, and Scale-Up Challenges

Abstract The scalable and low-cost preparation of Li2S with application-appropriate purity and particle characteristics remains a major bottleneck restricting the industrialization of next-generation solid-state and lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries. This paper systematically revie...

Coordinated Control of the Properties of Rubber Composites Using a Dual‐Filler System

ABSTRACT Wet mixing and dry mixing are two entirely different mixing methods. Wet mixing can reduce the particle size of carbon black aggregates, whereas silica incorporated via dry mixing has larger aggregate sizes; through silane coupling agents, it can form a chemically cross‐...

Lattice-Confined Rh Single Atoms in SrTiO3 Enable Leaching-Resistant and Durable Heterogeneous Hydroformylation

Abstract Heterogeneous Rh catalysts hold great promise for olefin hydroformylation by integrating the catalytic efficiency of Rh with facile separation and recycling. However, achieving high catalytic activity together with long-term stability remains a formidable challenge becau...

Few-layered MoS2 nanoflakes confined in N-doped carbon nanocages for high-rate and durable Na storage

Transition metal sulfides are promising anode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) due to their high theoretical capacities and diverse redox reactions. However, their Na storage performances are often limited by poor inherent conductivity and electrochemical instability. He...
