Ultra‐High Strength and Environmentally Stable Fluorinated Solid‐State Ion‐Conductive Elastomers with Folding‐Paper‐Structured Triboelectric Nanogenerators for Wave Energy Harvesting

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
In this work, a polyurethane‐based fluorinated SICEs with excellent mechanical properties (7.35 MPa and 61.4 MJ m−3), conductivity (4.2 × 10−4 S cm−1), and harsh environmental resistance were prepared by a “three birds with one stone” strategy that combines multiple interactions with fluorine effects. The paper‐folding TENG is capable of harvesting not

For the Few, Not the Many: Tracing the Residualist and Compensatory Nature of British Energy Support

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drawing on extensive documentary analysis, this article traces the evolution of British energy policy support since World War II. It analyses shifts in policy design through two interpretive lenses: eligibility (residualist vs. universalist) and function (compensatory vs. preventive).

Hybrid Osprey‐Salp Swarm Optimization Algorithm for Single and Multiobjective Optimal Power Flow in Smart Grids With Renewable Energy Integration

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
The proposed hybrid osprey‐salp swarm optimization algorithm addresses optimal power flow (OPF) problems in smart grids incorporating solar, hydro, and thermal generators. The algorithm is validated on Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers 30‐, 57‐, and 118‐bus test systems across five single and multiobjective OPF scenarios.

A Rapid Post‐Disaster Restoration Method for Networked Microgrids Based on Adaptive Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
To enhance the power restoration speed of networked microgrids (NMGs) after extreme natural disasters and reduce the power outage of the system, this paper proposes a rapid post‐disaster restoration method for NMGs based co‐optimization of fault repair and load restoration.

Cheia de axé (full of axé): Spirituality, resistance, and repair in Pernambuco's Afro‐Brazilian traditional communities

Feminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract This article explores how Afro‐Brazilian communities in Pernambuco respond to state‐led industrial development through culturally rooted practices of resistance and repair. Drawing on archival and ethnographic research in the coastal municipalities of Cabo de Santo Agostinho and Ipojuca, this study traces the effects of Brazil's large‐scale ...

A Novel Type of Fluorescent Chlorophyll Catabolites Hypermodified by Lipophilic Chloroplast Membrane Components

Helvetica Chimica Acta, EarlyView.
Breakdown of chlorophyll (Chl) is a fundamental biological phenomenon. In de‐greening banana leaves, Chl is transformed into colorless “fluorescent” Chl‐catabolites (FCCs) that cause the leaves to luminesce blue. Hypothesis‐driven search for apolar banana‐FCCs, and structure elucidation, have revealed a striking first link between lipid metabolism and ...

Bio‐inspired nanophotonics: Structural color, chirality, and resonance metasurfaces

InfoMat, EarlyView.
A butterfly‐wing‐inspired anisotropic plasmonic flatband resonant metasurface. Insets, photo of the butterfly, Sasakia charonda, and the SEM image of its wing scale (above); the SEM image of the metasurface (below). Abstract The dazzling colors of butterfly wings and hummingbird feathers are not painted with pigments, but crafted by nature's invisible ...
