Plants back: Re‐envisioning botanical garden collections management for indigenous crops
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Botanical gardens and other ex situ collections play a key role in preventing plant extinctions, yet the needs of Indigenous crop cultivars are not being met by conventional botanical collections management practices. Inspired by Indigenous land care restoration movements centering plant–human–society relationships, we propose a path toward reciprocal ...

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Cold weather conditions impose substantial constraints upon the performance and long‐term resilience of concrete materials. Alkali‐activated slag (AAS) presents itself as a promising substitute, exhibiting sustained hydraulic activity even when exposed to ambient conditions characterized by low temperatures.

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract 3D concrete printing (3DCP) is an automated construction technique that uses an extrusion process to fabricate structures efficiently. However, the layer‐by‐layer process can create interlayer weaknesses, and interruptions during printing can result in cold joints, which can negatively affect the structural behavior.

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract The implementation of traditional steel reinforcement in 3D concrete printed structures is a major challenge. Although 3D‐printed structures may be used as formwork, the knowledge about their structural contribution is limited. This research aims to experimentally evaluate the structural performance of reinforced concrete prisms with 3D ...
