Dental Microwear Texture Analysis on Radular Teeth
3D microwear textures reveal how gastropod radular teeth respond to controlled abrasive contact. Distinct surface signatures distinguish regular abrasion from fracture‐dominated material removal, showing how mineralized coatings, fibrous cores, and substrate properties jointly shape wear and failure in a biological scraping interface.

A traction steel belt is a key load-bearing and transmission component that replaces traditional steel wire rope to achieve an elevator friction drive. Under actual operating conditions, when an elevator slips due to unexpected factors such as emergency ...

An integrated framework combining fractal geometry, sedimentology and coastal exposure analysis revealed higher coastal vulnerability in Procida than in Mykonos despite the latter's greater shoreline complexity. This approach provides a robust tool for assessing morphodynamics and supporting sustainable management of Mediterranean island coasts ...

Abdominal incisions can heal into mechanically weak, disorganized scars. We developed a 3D‐bioprinted hydrogel patch with cell‐laden filaments oriented perpendicular to the incision, providing a guiding scaffold for local repair cells. This architecture supports organized collagen deposition and improves mechanical restoration of the healing abdominal ...

Abstract Seismogenic faults shape continental landscapes, drive crustal deformation and influence fluid exchange between the lithosphere and atmosphere. Yet, quantitative links between fault activity, exhumation and near‐surface environmental evolution remain poorly understood. Here, structural (meso‐ and micro‐scale) investigations are integrated with

The Anatomy of a Dust Emitting Hot Spot: The White Sands Playa‐Aeolian System, New Mexico, USA
Abstract The White Sands aeolian system is a hot spot of dust emissions and has likely been a persistent dust source since the early to mid‐Holocene, when arid conditions promoted the desiccation and erosion of Pleistocene Lake Otero and the formation of the dune field.

ABSTRACT Sirenians are a lineage of herbivorous marine mammals morphologically specialized for exploiting aquatic vegetation in shallow‐water habitats. In manatees (Trichechus), continuous horizontal tooth replacement may represent a solution for mitigating heavy dental wear incurred by a diet of abrasive plant material.

ABSTRACT Previous studies have documented genetic divergence within the last few million years between northern and southern populations of terrestrial plants and animals along the Baja California peninsula, with many studies hypothesising that the divergence is due to an ancient seaway that crossed the central peninsula and created a physical barrier ...
