A bright 53°F morning on the Great Wall — Vicky’s first visit, and mine too. Great conversations and an even better discovery: she’s passionate about buns and dumplings 🥟

Our paper is online! Preserving long chains in natural rubber forms a network with long strands, dense entanglements, and strain-induced crystallization, greatly enhancing crack resistance. https://t.co/rHtwVVcZuw

"Bio-inspired" doesn't always add value to a materials science study. In my latest editorial, I discuss when (and when not) to appropriately use the term...

For those new to high-entropy alloys and interested in Cantor's early work on the topic, his review paper published in Progress in Materials Science is recommended reading.

Congratulations, Yecheng! A great introduction to non-faradaic junction sensors. Looking forward to learning more from your work!
So excited to see our Review online @NatRevMater !! We discuss sensors based on non-faradaic junction. Working with @zhigangsuo , @kun_jia20450 and the journal team has been great. Look forward to new developments in this field. https://t.co/dbfsM2LXPR

I wish I could have been in the lecture - I’ll have to double down on his notes.
The day was warm, reaching 76 F. I had a great time lecturing on Carnot cycle. “That was satisfying,” a student said after the class. It’s deeply satisfying to make a two hundred year old story vivid to a new generation. I walked to @HarvardBooks. Books are there, comforting.

Great steps inspire, great missteps teach. The history of thermodynamics is illuminating and well-documented, full of dramas of triumph and despair. Nature works without science. But humans create science to understand nature. To study science is to study nature and humans.

A graduate student learns to love writing: just like doing research, writing a paper takes some trial and error. https://t.co/SBZa5CQZXW

Interesting! I had a discussion with a colleague about a making metal-based bulletproof composite during a transit at the airport.
A bulletproof glass is a laminate of two types of glasses, such as silica and polycarbonate. https://t.co/uXx02iIJBy

Voids are commonly treated as detrimental defects in materials. In this paper, my next-door colleague, Prof. Hai-Jun Jin, found that dispersed nanoscale voids in gold boosts its strength and ductility, transforming the "flaws" into a lightweight, high-performance advantage.

“I’m going to teach the Arruda-Boyce model this semester in my course on Advanced Elasticity,” I said to Ellen Arruda. She hosted a dinner for my visit I mentioned this 2006 photo with her and Mary Boyce. Ellen remembered this photo and said, “Post it on Facebook.” Here it is.

Affording a Yamaha piano at that time was dream for my family, even an upright model. My father promised if I practice hard he would buy one for me. My mom didn't say anything, and I guess she knows his son is not talented and a Yamaha piano is not necessary.

For my generation, learning piano has becoming popular. My parents married in 1986 and spent all their savings, 3000 RMB, to buy a piano for their future child, be it a son or daughter. The brand of the piano is Happiness (幸福), made in China.
We had an upright piano in Santa Barbara. Denian decided to buy a Yamaha grand piano. I complained. It was expensive, and we didn’t know how much time the boys would spend time with it. Of course Denian ignored me. I’m glad that she did.
