It is our great pleasure to present the seven papers in this special subject of Theoretical & Applied Mechanics Letters (TAML) and introduce the recent progresses on the mechanical behavior of thermal protection materials and structures by the authors.展开更多

However, several big fire accidents in high-rise buildings such as the Beijing Television Cultural Center fire in 2009 and the Shanghai Jing'an District fire in 2010 etc. have claimed people's lives and caused huge amounts of economic and property losses,展开更多

In the last 5 years, the field has seen tremendous progress in the molecular and functional characterization of primary sensory neurons [6, 7], neurocircuits of pain and itch [8-10], immune and glial modulation of pain and itch [11-15], molecular mechanisms of pain [16, 17], and identification of brain signatures of pain [18]. Thus, it is timely to highlight the recent progress in a second special issue. I invited the previous authors and new authors from China, the USA, and Japan, and they have contributed 20 mini-reviews and original articles to this special issue.展开更多
