Relation of Bulk‐to‐Shear Loss Factors in Viscoelastic Auxetic Metamaterials
physica status solidi (b), EarlyView.This article examines the dynamic behavior of isotropic auxetic viscoelastic materials, highlighting how negative Poisson's ratios affect energy dissipation, damping, and the interplay between bulk and shear moduli. By extending established viscoelastic theories to the auxetic range, it defines bound limits and underscores how dynamic Poisson's ratio ...

Freedom of Scientific Inquiry and Democracy. A Systems‐Theoretical Approach
Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The article examines the relationship between democracy and one of its inherent features: freedom of scientific inquiry—a multi‐layered concept closely intertwined with the broader notion of academic freedom—both of which are increasingly under threat worldwide. The paper advocates for the use of Luhmann's theoretical framework to analyse this

Hunting method affects cortisol levels in harvested mountain hares (Lepus timidus)
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.The direct effects of hunting on hunted individuals and populations have been well known for a long time. However, recently there has also been an increased focus on the indirect, non‐lethal effects of hunting. When approached by a possible threat such as a predator, the prey releases various stress hormones into the bloodstream.

Had the planet mars not existed: Kepler's equant model and its physical consequences
, 2009 We examine the equant model for the motion of planets, which has been the starting point of Kepler's investigations before he modified it because of Mars observations.
