Long Jute Fiber‐Reinforced Polypropylene Composites for Lightweight Automotive Structures

open access: yesSPE Polymers, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
LFT‐G processing route and the resulting property changes. ABSTRACT This study investigates the effects of long jute (LJ) fiber reinforcement on the mechanical, thermal and sound transmission loss (STL) properties of polypropylene (PP)‐based biocomposites. Long fiber thermoplastics (LFT) are increasingly used in various industries, including automotive

A Subjective Related Measure of Airborne Sound Insulation

open access: yesThe International Journal of Acoustics and Vibration, 2017
In many practical cases, the objective measures of airborne sound insulation using standard procedures do not agree with subjective assessments. This paper describes a calculation scheme based on the loudness level linked to the specific fluctuation strength and yields a weighted normalized loudness level difference.

Observation of Dislocation Bound States and Skin Effects in Non‐Hermitian Chern Insulators

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 13, 3 March 2026.
Experimental observation of the dislocation‐induced bound states and skin effects is demonstrated in a line‐gap non‐Hermitian acoustic lattice. By utilizing active meta‐atoms to measure the full complex spectrum and biorthogonal eigenstates, the study reveals the exceptional‐point‐driven melting of defect modes.

Glacier‐Atmosphere Interactions and Feedbacks in High‐Mountain Regions ‐ A Review

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Mountain glaciers are among the natural systems most vulnerable to climate change. However, their interactions with the atmosphere are complex and not fully understood. These interactions can trigger rapid adjustments and climate feedbacks that either amplify or attenuate atmospheric signals, influencing both glacier response and large‐scale ...

Volumetric mediations: Atmospheres of crisis and unbelonging in humanitarian drone documentaries

open access: yesArea, Volume 58, Issue 1, March 2026.
Short Abstract This paper contributes to scholarship on drones’ more‐than‐military realms as they pertain to the atmospheres they create in visual culture. Focusing on two humanitarian drone documentaries, Ai Weiwei's Human Flow (2017) and Morgan Knibbe's Those Who Feel the Fire Burning (2014), I examine how their drone cinematography visualises the ...
