Effect of the measurement contact scale on the thermomechanical characterization of biocomposite surfaces [PDF]
, 2023 This paper proposes a multiscale surface characterization of biocomposites using the nanoindentation technique to identify the functional relationship between the measurement contact scale and the thermomechanical response of each biocomposite component,

Coordinated Architectural and Chemical Reinforcement in the Crushing Mandible of a Soldier Termite
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The crushing mandible of a soldier termite withstands substantial biting loads despite lacking mineral. Its cuticle is partitioned: convex teeth pair hardness and zinc enrichment with aligned chitin fibers for contact durability, while stiffer concave regions between teeth carry bending loads.
