Cu and Cu‐30Ni Alloy as Anti‐Viral Materials for High‐Touch Surfaces: Efficacy in a Simulated Public Environment with Frequent Cleaning Practices

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study evaluates the antiviral efficacy and corrosion behavior of pure copper and Cu‐30Ni alloy on high‐touch surfaces under simulated public conditions with periodic cleaning. Copper shows faster virus inactivation due to higher ion release, while Cu‐30Ni offers better aesthetic durability.

Single‐Step Fabrication of Monolithic Flexible Capacitive Pressure Sensors With Enhanced Sensitivity via Femtosecond Laser Direct Writing and Microhole Structuring

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
This study presents a single‐step femtosecond laser‐based approach for fabricating flexible capacitive pressure sensors within a gelatin‐silver nitrate matrix. Sensitivity‐enhancing microholes are first created using an amplified femtosecond laser beam, followed by direct writing of flexible metallic silver electrodes.

Timbral effects on consonance disentangle psychoacoustic mechanisms and suggest perceptual origins for musical scales

Nature Communications
The phenomenon of musical consonance is an essential feature in diverse musical styles. The traditional belief, supported by centuries of Western music theory and psychological studies, is that consonance derives from simple (harmonic) frequency ratios ...

Aesthetics and literature : a problematic relation? [PDF]

, 2007
The paper argues that there is a proper place for literature within aesthetics but that care must be taken in identifying just what the relation is. In characterising aesthetic pleasure associated with literature it is all too easy to fall into reductive
