Hydrodynamic Selection of Polymorphic Assembly Pathways in Plant Protein Amyloid Fibrils

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hydrodynamic conditions are revealed to govern polymorphic assembly of soy protein amyloid fibrils. Distinct flow‐induced drafting, kissing, and docking dynamics direct fibril growth into multiple morphologies, linking fluid mechanics with nanoscale assembly and enabling rational design of functional amyloid materials.

Enhancing Surface Icephobic Performance via Spontaneous Fracture Characteristics of Ice Crystals Regulated by Structural Scale Under Shear Flow Conditions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Aerodynamic shear induces spontaneous ice fracture and detachment on hydrophobic surfaces, governed by the interplay between initial ice‐crystal size, growth orientation, and interfacial adhesion. Unexpectedly, microstructural anchoring on superhydrophobic surfaces suppresses ice shedding.

Gradient‐Oxidized Bacterial Cellulose for Self‐Sustained Soil Moisture Sensing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An asymmetric encapsulated bacterial cellulose device integrates a gradient‐oxidized BC framework with a LiCl‐doped Ecoflex hygroscopic layer, enabling self‐powered soil moisture monitoring through directional ion transport. The device sustains stable hydrovoltaic output, supports deep‐learning humidity classification, and fully biodegrades in soil ...

EHD‐LIFT: Electrohydrodynamic Laser Induced Forward Transfer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Electrohydrodynamic laser‐induced forward transfer (EHD‐LIFT) introduces electric field‐assisted control to LIFT. Through laser‐patterning a conductive absorber layer, local curvatures are induced in the donor film, enabling flow‐focusing for transfer of smaller droplets at lower laser energies.

Promoting Healthier Drinking: Evidence From a Vignette Experiment on Contextual and Informational Drivers of Dealcoholized Wine Choices

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Growing demand for healthier beverages is driving innovation in the wine sector, with dealcoholized wine emerging as a promising alternative. However, little is known about the contextual conditions under which consumers would choose dealcoholized wine, particularly in countries with strong wine traditions. To fill this gap, this work examines

Do Politically Motivated Import Bans Leave Lasting Scars? Evidence From Australian–Chinese Beef Trade

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In May 2020, China abruptly suspended imports from several major Australian beef processors, escalating a diplomatic dispute between the two countries. This trade measure disrupted one of the largest beef export relationships in the world almost overnight.

Food Security Strategy, Macroeconomic Dynamics and Food Import Sensitivity in Qatar

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Qatar has limited agricultural land and water resources and therefore remains highly dependent on food imports. This structural dependency makes Qatar vulnerable to external shocks such as the recent Gulf crisis, threatening food security and disrupting global supply chains. In response to previous shocks, Qatar started implementing a National

Experimental and numerical study of liquid–liquid systems using the Euler–Lagrange/VOF approach

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Achieving stable liquid–liquid dispersions with controlled droplet size remains a challenge due to the complex interplay of dispersed phase viscosity, hydrodynamic conditions and interfacial interactions. This work presents a validated computational framework for droplet breakage and coalescence in liquid–liquid dispersions with variable ...

Evolution of Physical Intelligence Across Scales

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
By following the evolution of physical intelligence across scales, this article shows how intelligence arises from materials, structures, physical interactions, and collectives. It establishes physical intelligence as the evolutionary foundation upon which embodied intelligence is built.
