Switchable and reversible wetting properties

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
Reversible and switchable wettability is attainable by integrating stimuli‐responsive materials. This review categorizes different external stimuli capable of modulating wettability. Abstract Controlling surface wettability is essential for various applications such as water harvesting, oil/water separation, and smart skin technologies.

Separation of Magnetic Microparticles With Different Molecular Surface Functionalizations by Close‐to‐Surface Traveling‐Wave Magnetophoresis

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Inducing surface‐near magnetic particle transport inside a static liquid via an engineered, dynamic potential energy landscape, different chemical surface properties of otherwise identical particles can be distinguished using simple optical observation.

Inferring cumulative crack widths in reinforced concrete structures using Coda Wave Interferometry of ultrasound

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Whether concrete structures are cracked, how wide these cracks are, and whether they must be regarded as damaging, is a central issue in structural health monitoring. Ultrasonic measurements evaluated with the sensitive Coda Wave Interferometry (CWI) have the potential to detect cracks early—long before they become visible. This paper presents

Experimental investigation of reinforced concrete members subjected to reversed cyclic axial loading

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents an experimental campaign of five reinforced concrete members subjected to cyclic axial loading alternating between tension and compression. Fiber optical sensors and digital image correlation, in combination with automated crack detection and measurement, were used to investigate, among other aspects, the development of ...

Development and validation of a multimodal model based on histopathological and computed tomography imaging for predicting survival outcomes in stage III colorectal cancer

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Patients with stage III colorectal cancer exhibit substantial heterogeneity in clinical outcomes despite receiving standardized treatments, which complicates accurate risk stratification. In this study, we integrated features derived from routine histopathological slides and preoperative computed tomography scans using machine learning to develop a ...

‘Using anuran community diversity and Pseudacris crucifer to predict landscape quality across a land use gradient'

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
As human‐modified landscape and climate changes proliferate, maintaining biodiversity and understanding the function and quality of available habitat is imperative. As anurans (frogs/toads) such as Pseudacris crucifer, can be an indicator species of habitat quality and ecosystem productivity, studying the anuran community in a mixed‐land use region ...

Enhancing generalized spectral clustering with embedding Laplacian graph regularization

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract An enhanced generalised spectral clustering framework that addresses the limitations of existing methods by incorporating the Laplacian graph and group effect into a regularisation term is presented. By doing so, the framework significantly enhances discrimination power and proves highly effective in handling noisy data.

Failure Probability Evaluation of GIL Tri‐Post Insulators Under Electromechanical Stresses

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Based on the energy theory, this paper proposes an evaluation method for the breakdown failure probability of the tri‐post insulator in a gas‐insulated metal‐enclosed transmission line (GIL). Various internal defects, vector forces and torque forces were considered, along with the application of an AC voltage.
