Artificial stretchable armor for skin-interfaced wearable devices and soft robotics
Extreme Mechanics Letters, 2021Animals such as the armadillo and pangolin have natural armor as a mechanical form of protection from predators. Among the several types of armor that exist in nature, structures composed of thin elastomeric substrates with overlapping hard scales can ...

Corrosion of copper armor caused by induced current in a 500 kV alternating current submarine cable
, 2021Alternating current (AC) is induced in armor because of electromagnetic induction. The induced AC flowing through the electrolyte–metal interface corrodes the armor, which accelerates submarine cable failure.

The armored carapace of the boxfish
Acta Biomaterialia, 2015The boxfish (Lactoria cornuta) has a carapace consisting of dermal scutes with a highly mineralized surface plate and a compliant collagen base. This carapace must provide effective protection against predators as it comes at the high cost of reduced mobility and speed.

In this article the author discusses how subtle reminders of prejudice against an individual's sex, race, or religion can negatively impact their performance in school, work, and athletics. Topics include a concept, called stereotype threat, which is a fear of failure that reinforces negative stereotypes of an individual's social group, psychology ...

Proceedings of the 1996 workshop on New security paradigms - NSPW '96, 1996
The traditional model of computer security was formulated in the 1970’s, when computers were espensive, solitary, heavy, and rare. It rests on three fundamental foundations: management of security policy describing the set of actions each user is entit.led to perform, integrity of the physical system, its software, and especially its security-enforcing

<i>On Armor</i> tells three important and interconnected stories. The first is a tale of a technology, in particular, the rise and fall of the main battle tank—a type of armored vehicle that came to dominate land warfare in the middle of the 20th century but is now obsolete. The second is a history of ideas.
