TL;DR: In this paper, single crystal aluminum and copper of (001) and (110) orientation were shock peened using laser beam of 12 micron diameter and observed with X-ray micro-diffraction techniques based on a synchrotron light source.

TL;DR: In this article, a prototype of a microchannel array in the nanocomposite thin film was made using standard microelectromechanical (MEMS) fabrication technology, and the results presented in this paper lay the groundwork for future studies in which the size, volume density, morphology, distribution as well as type of nanoparticle in the nano-composite will be systematically and independently varied in order to optimize mechanical properties.

TL;DR: 3D-printed microneedles can create precise perforations in the HRWM without damaging intracochlear structures, and have many potential applications ranging from aspiration of cochlear fluids using a lumenized needle for diagnosis and creating portals for therapeutic delivery into the inner ear.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of void size and hardening in a hexagonal close-packed single crystal containing a cylindrical void loaded by a far-field equibiaxial tensile stress under plane strain conditions are studied.

TL;DR: It is shown for the first time that that direct‐write e‐beam exposure can significantly alter the rigidity of elastomeric poly(dimethylsiloxane) substrates and a new class of 2D elastomersic substrates with controlled patterned rigidity ranging from the micrometer to the nanoscale is described.
