Pre-failure indicators detected by Acoustic Emission: Alfas stone, cement-mortar and cement-paste specimens under 3-point bending

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2018
Acoustic Emission (AE) is the technique most widely used nowadays for Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). Application of this technique for continuous SHM of restored elements of stone monuments is a challenging task.

Effect of Sequential and Combined Space‐Based Stressors on Perovskite Solar Cell Stability

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
A correlation between loss in performance and mobile ion concentration has been established by sequential stressing of perovskite solar cells under Low Earth Orbit conditions with exposure to protons, light, and thermal cycling. It is shown that the loss in performance increases when ion concentration increases and vice versa.

Nanocubes and Cuboctahedra: Entropic Stabilization Versus Thermal Segregation in Rock Salt‐ and Spinel‐Type Multinary Oxides from Spray‐Flame Synthesis

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Spray‐flame synthesis enables highly flexible and scalable production of multinary and high‐entropy oxide nanoparticles due to high synthesis temperatures with subsequent quenching. Temperature‐dependent in situ diffraction of as‐synthesized materials clearly reveals entropy stabilization in rock salt lattices, while spinels—featuring tetrahedral and ...

Three Birds with One Stone: High‐Performance 2D Lead‐Free Perovskite Solar Cells via Direct In Situ Generation of Organic‐Spacer Precursors

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Adopting a “three birds with one stone” strategy, the in situ generation of organic spacer simultaneously addresses three major challenges limiting 2D tin‐based perovskites: (1) Sn2+ oxidation; (2) rapid crystallization; and (3) uncontrolled 2D phase distribution.

Tuning Cation Disorder in LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 via Room Temperature Continuous‐Flow Co‐Precipitation and Controlled Heat Treatment

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (LNMO) precursors were produced at room temperature by Ambient Continuous Turbulent In‐line Mixing (ACTIM) at rates of up to 0.42 kg h−1. The final heat treatment step at 650, 700, or 750 °C, altered cation disorder and the electrochemical behavior of the LNMO cathodes, while the effect of adding MWCNTs to the electrodes, was also ...

Tailoring MXene Flake Morphology via Aerosol Jet Printing for Biological and Strain Sensor Applications

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Aerosol Jet Printing (AJP), coupled with a novel in situ monitoring method, enabled the controlled fabrication of aligned and crumpled Ti3C2Tx MXenes for diverse applications. Demonstrated across multiple 2D materials, this scalable strategy stablishes flake morphology as a controllable design parameter for engineering application‐specific material ...

A reappraisal of the Middle to Later Stone Age prehistory of Morocco Réévaluer la préhistoire du Maroc, du Middle Stone Age au Later Stone Age

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Over the last 25 years, perceptions of the early prehistory of Northwest Africa have undergone radical changes due to new fieldwork projects and a corresponding growth in scientific interest in the region. Much of this work has been focused in Morocco, known for its extremely rich fossil and archaeological records in caves and rock shelters.

Sharing of 4‐hydroxy‐3‐(methylthio)benzaldehyde as a pollination semiochemical among distantly related sexually deceptive orchids

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that Spiculaea ciliata attracts male Thynnoturneria abspiculus through a single semiochemical, identified as 4‐hydroxy‐3‐(methylthio)benzaldehyde, emitted from its labellum. This compound alone elicited sexual behaviours in male wasps comparable to those elicited by whole floral extracts and attracted wasps when presented on a synthetic ...

Augmenting erythropoiesis using recombinant human erythropoietin at sea level blunts the high altitude induced increase in erythropoiesis

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Pharmacologically augmenting erythropoiesis with rEPO at sea level blunts the high altitude induced erythropoiesis. Abstract Erythropoiesis increases with high altitude (HA) acclimatization. Recombinant human erythropoietin (rEPO) induces erythropoiesis.
