Photothermal bubble: Dynamics, manipulation, and applications

open access: yesDroplet, EarlyView.
As a versatile platform for bubble manipulation, photothermal techniques empower diverse operations: planar translation by scanning the laser spot, sustained periodic bouncing from competing thermal and hydrodynamic flows, and even guided 3D trajectories achieved by tailoring the heating configuration.

Non‐monotonic jet pinch‐off induced by droplet impact on immiscible liquids

open access: yesDroplet, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract shows the evolution of the central jet following droplet impact and summarizes the non‐monotonic dependence of the critical Weber number on the dimensionless film thickness and Ohnesorge number. Abstract Droplet impact on immiscible liquids can generate a central jet whose pinch‐off behavior plays a crucial role in many advanced ...

Future warming enhances rates of population increase of arthropod crop pests globally

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Arthropod herbivores cause severe crop yield losses worldwide. Global warming is expected to shift their ranges, phenologies and performances, highlighting the need for improved forecasts of their potential expansion and impacts on food security. After decades of experimental research on thermal biology of arthropod crop pests, available data and tools

Taxon‐dependent multisite species turnover in fragmented habitats: comparing zeta diversity across birds, butterflies, and cursorial hunting spiders

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Habitat fragmentation alters species diversity and reshapes community composition. However, conventional pairwise approaches to compositional variation (i.e. beta diversity metrics) do not explicitly characterize how species sharing or turnover change with the number of habitat patches.

Numerical and Experimental Evaluation of a Simplified Lateral Spring Formulation for Rocking Structures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rocking podium isolation systems have gained significant research interest as a method of limiting seismic demands on superstructures and eliminating residual post‐earthquake drifts through self‐centring behaviour. However, while numerous models of varying complexity, including analytical, phenomenological, and physical formulations, have been
