Subterranean Mine Inspection Using the Prometheus Re‐Configurable Drone

Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 1646-1660, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper describes the design, development, and real‐world testing of an autonomous drone for subterranean exploration, known as “Prometheus.” Driven by requirements from industry that the drone be able to be deployed through areas of restricted access, Prometheus was designed to be directly deployed through a 150 mm aperture.

Filling a Gap in Materials Mechanics: Nanoindentation at High Constant Strain Rates up to 105 s−1

Small, Volume 22, Issue 28, 18 May 2026.
A piezoelectric nanoindentation platform enables constant strain‐rate testing up to 105 s−1, extending experimental capabilities to extreme deformation regimes. Distinct hardness upturns are revealed across crystalline and amorphous materials, verified as intrinsic responses through quasi‐static reloading.

Beyond DPA: An Atomistic Framework for a Quantitative Description of Radiation Damage in YBa2Cu3O7

Small Science, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2026.
To quantify primary radiation damage and describe defect morphology in the high‐temperature superconductor YBa2Cu3O7, an atomistic multiscale framework is proposed. Coupling Molecular Dynamics and Binary Collision Approximation simulations and integrating the atomistic description with Primary Knock‐on Atom spectra from Monte Carlo and transport ...

Assessing Deposit‐Derived Pyroclastic Flow Hazard at Stromboli (Italy): 2. Probabilistic Invasion Maps

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract This study presents a new method to assess the hazard of deposit‐derived pyroclastic density currents (PDC), a critical threat on volcanic islands and on populated slopes of active volcanoes, considering the exemplary case study of Stromboli (Italy).

Modeling the Delivery of Mercury's Polar Ice by a Volatile‐Rich Impact

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Permanently shadowed regions near Mercury's poles are thought to harbor significant deposits of water ice, the origin of which remains to be conclusively determined. One leading hypothesis is that most of the water observed today may have been delivered by a relatively recent, volatile‐rich impact comparable in scale and age to that which ...
