Computational Modeling of Decision Making Enhances the Adversity Researcher's Toolbox

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the past decades, there has been major progress in our understanding of how adversity influences cognitive abilities and strategies. However, most of this research is based on raw performance, such as response times and accuracy. These measures are informative about decision‐making outcomes but tell us little about cognitive processes. In

Isometric training at longer muscle–tendon complex lengths: A potential countermeasure to impaired neuro‐muscle–tendon function during space travel

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Manned space exploration to distant destinations, including Mars, continues to be an aspiration of humankind. Space travel does, however, present many challenges to the body, amongst which adaptation to microgravity is perhaps the largest. For instance, both short and long manned spaceflight missions have shown substantial deleterious effects ...

A New Paradigm for Understanding the Rheology and Processability of Poly(p‐Phenylene Terephthalamide) Liquid‐Crystalline Solutions

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 34, September 10, 2026.
Kevlar is traditionally modeled as a rigid‐rod polymer, yet rheological behavior deviates from this assumption. The review introduces a novel “twist‐tie” entanglement theory for aramid polymer chains in the nematic liquid crystal state, providing a molecular explanation for deviations from rigid‐rod models. Understanding twist‐tie entanglement dynamics

Strategic and Discursive Shifts in Türkiye's Perceptions of NATO, 1952–2020

open access: yesMiddle East Policy, Volume 33, Issue 3, Autumn (Fall) 2026.
Abstract With crises intensifying across the Middle East, the Türkiye‐NATO relationship has become a matter of vital interest for global security. Employing a mixed‐methods approach, this study investigates shifts in Ankara's perceptions of NATO from the year of Türkiye's accession in 1952 through 2020. Officials’ views are examined through an analysis

Comparative Evaluation of Structure–Processing–Property Relationships in Flax, Hemp, and Cattail Discontinuous fiber Thermoset Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 15, Page 13910-13926, 10 August 2026.
Needle punching reorients fibers from in‐plane direction toward z‐direction of the web, resulting in mechanical interlocking of fibers and reduction in the nonwoven mat thickness. ABSTRACT Replacement of glass fiber mats, utilized in large and complex composite parts in the transportation industry, with natural fiber mats requires knowledge of natural ...

Quaternary Climate Oscillations Shape Genetic Diversity and Spatial Structure of Viola hybanthoides (Violaceae) Endemic to Danxia Landscape

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We adopted ddRAD‐seq and chloroplast genome sequencing to explore the genetic characteristics of the danxia‐endemic species Viola hybanthoides. This species exhibits extremely low within‐population genetic diversity and obvious genetic differentiation, which is mainly driven by habitat fragmentation, restricted gene flow and Quaternary climatic changes.

Parametric Study of Phosphogypsum‐Rock Wool‐Phosphogypsum Sandwich Lightweight Partition Wallboards Under Impact Load

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
Based on the validated LS‐DYNA model, this study carried out a series of simulations on Phosphogypsum‐Rock Wool‐Phosphogypsum (P‐RW‐P) sandwich lightweight partition wallboards under impact load. The effects of structural and impact load parameters on their impact performance of P‐RW‐P wallboards were systematically analyzed, providing a basis for the ...

Development of multi-layer ballistic armor panel with simulation and ballistic tests

open access: yes, 2020
Perforated armor plates are in use for many years to improve ballistic protection level of armored vehicles. Theoretically, when bullet impacted side of a hole, bending stress is generated to break incoming projectile core or at least projectile is diverted from its incident trajectory and thus reduce penetration capability.

On the Assembly of Actin Polymerization‐Powered Motors

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, Volume 47, Issue 15, 4 August 2026.
Actin polymerization‐powered motors have the highest speed when the actin recruiting‐polymerizing proteins are immobilized in polymer brushes on their surface. These motors orbit around larger tracer particles at pH above the isoelectric point of ActA but dock onto the tracer particles’ surface at lower pH. ABSTRACT Nano‐ and micromotors are a class of

A physics primer on photon‐counting detectors in CT: Physics, signal formation, and performance

open access: yesMedical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Photon‐counting detector CT (PCD‐CT) is moving from laboratory development to clinical deployment. However, its threshold‐bin data arise from a tightly coupled detector–readout chain that can be difficult to understand as a whole. These data are not a direct readout of photon energy, but the outcome of a sequence of physical and electronic ...
