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

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 9, Page 4041-4053, 1 September 2026.
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 ...

Performance of Glass Fiber Composites With Plastic‐Waste Pyrolysis Char as Filler

open access: yesPolymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 16, Page 14769-14787, 20 August 2026.
Valorisation of mixed plastic waste into carbonaceous char via pyrolysis, its integration as a microfiller in epoxy/E‐glass (GFRP) laminates, and characterisation to assess composite performance as a function of filler loading. ABSTRACT Plastic pyrolysis offers circular solutions for mixed plastic waste but leaves a carbonaceous char that is often ...

A Review of Mechanical Reinforcement and Piezoresistive Self‐Sensing in Carbon Nanotube Fiber Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 16, Page 14313-14338, 20 August 2026.
PSPP‐TRL mapping of CNT‐modified CFRP literature, with four recurring confusions resolved and five scale‐up problems quantified. ABSTRACT Carbon nanotube‐modified fiber composites are often presented as a route to stronger, tougher, and self‐sensing structural materials.

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 ...

BALLISTICS FOR THE NEUROSURGEON

Neurosurgery, 2008
Craniocerebral injuries from ballistic projectiles are qualitatively different from injuries in unconfined soft tissue with similar impact. Penetrating and nonpenetrating ballistic injuries are influenced not only by the physical properties of the projectile, but also by its ballistics. Ballistics provides information on the motion of projectiles while

Observation of ballistic holes

Physical Review Letters, 1988
We report the first direct observation of ballistic hole transport in semiconductors, via energy spectroscopy experiments. Light holes are preselected and injected via tunnelling into 31 nm thick p+ GaAs layers. About 10% of the injected holes have been found to traverse ballistically maintaining distributions ≈ 35 meV wide, with a mean free path of ...

Ballistic Trauma: Overview and Statistics – Wound Ballistics

2016
Wound ballistics is the specialty in ballistics dealing with the interaction of bullet and tissue, resulting in lesions when humans or animals are hit. The lesions depend on the velocity and mass of the bullet as well as its design. Bullets are divided into low- and high-velocity bullets.

Ballistic injury

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1986
Wound profiles made under controlled conditions in the wound ballistics laboratory at the Letterman Army Institute of Research showed the location along their tissue path at which projectiles cause tissue disruption and the type of disruption (crush from direct contact with the projectile or stretch from temporary cavitation).

Ballistic and near ballistic transport in GaAs

IEEE Electron Device Letters, 1980
Calculations which take into account collisions and intervally transfer in GaAs indicate that the electron transport in short GaAs structures is near-ballistic. High drift velocities (in excess of 5-107cm/s) may be achieved leading to potentially superior device performance.
