Injectable Bone Cements: A Generational Framework for Bioactivity, Porosity, and Mechanobiological Design at the Nanoscale

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Key demographic, biological, and material considerations that drive the need for advanced injectable bone cement technologies. Injectable bone cements (IBCs) are widely used in orthopaedic and craniofacial applications due to their minimally invasive delivery and ability to provide early mechanical stabilisation.

On structural controllability in complex networks with periodic switching topologies

Asian Journal of Control, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates the structural controllability of complex networks with periodic switching topologies. First, several graph transformations that preserve structural controllability are demonstrated. Based on the n‐walk theory, a criterion is derived that determines structural controllability by analyzing only the joint graph within a ...

The evidence base for ranger patrol effectiveness in conservation and how to improve it

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ranger patrols are a cornerstone of wildlife protection efforts around the world and occur across all ecological governance systems. Evidence that patrols reduce threats to wildlife and enable their recovery has not been systematically examined previously.

From Compliance to Circularity: A Design‐Led Approach to Recyclable Packaging

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transition to recyclable packaging is a strategic priority for the Fast‐Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) sector, aligning with the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR). Adapting to regulatory uncertainty and integrating evolving recyclability criteria require not only technical innovation but also organisational transformation ...

Comparison of the diversity of ground beetle (Coleoptera: Carabidae) assemblages in small and large temperate peat bogs [PDF]

Mires and Peat
We present a study comparing assemblages of ground beetles between small and large pristine peat bogs in Central-Eastern Europe, to better understand biodiversity variability in peatland ecosystems in tundra patches in the temperate zone.

The Toxicity of Bog Water

Science, 1916
The following is a brief statement of data obtained by the writer in experiments on waters from sphagnum bogs of the Puget Sound region and Alaska. The flora of these bogs has been previously described (6, 7). In most cases the water was collected by cutting a shallow cavity in the sphagnum and dipping up the water which accumulated within a few ...

Regional and local patterns in depth to water table, hydrochemistry and peat properties of bogs and their laggs in coastal British Columbia [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2013
In restoration planning for damaged raised bogs, the lagg at the bog margin is often not given considerable weight and is sometimes disregarded entirely.
