Here, we present a topology optimization approach to design two-dimensional structures for desired uniaxial polynomial nonlinear behavior, wherein we formulate the objective function to match nonlinear coefficient ratios, such that the linear stiffness is decoupled from the desired nonlinearity of the response. We suggest that such linear stiffness decoupling can help aid convergence for problems with fixed, but poorly matched, constituent materials and design volumes. This benefit can be understood by considering, if large absolute force values and stiffnesses are targeted, thicker structures with less open space generally result. Such high volume ratio structures reduce the kinematic freedom (available to, <em>e.g.</em>, long thin structures) which is needed for strong geometrically nonlinear responses.

The Pt-ALD-modified graphene aerogel (GA-ALD) exhibited a 199 % increase in thermal conductivity, significantly surpassing the 113 % enhancement from heat treatment.

Owing to the synergistic effect of enhanced solid-phase thermal conductivity and efficient convective heat transfer through the preserved porous structure, the GA-ALD sample achieved a total thermal resistance comparable to that of an equal-sized aluminum heat sink under identical forced-convection conditions, while weighing only ∼12 % of its aluminum counterpart. Moreover, cyclic compressive tests confirmed GA-ALD durability, retaining 99.5 % height and 94.7 % stress after 1000 cycles.

We introduce a category of high strength, defect-resistant octonary CoNi-based high entropy superalloy (CoNi-HESA), comprising roughly equal parts of Co and Ni, along with Cr, Al, V, Ti, Ta, and W. This alloy exhibits as-printed tensile strength exceeding 1 GPa and tensile ductility exceeding 30 % at room temperature. Furthermore, compression tests demonstrate that the as-printed parts maintain a yield strength of about 1 GPa at room temperature up to 700 °C, which decreases to 0.9 GPa and 0.7 GPa as the test temperature reaches 800 °C and 900 °C, respectively. With a careful combination of laser powder and scan speed, the developed HESA is well-suited for crack-resistant, high-density component production through L-PBF.
