Stresses in Above‐Ground Storage Tanks Subjected to Flood‐Borne Debris Impact

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
This study investigates the stresses induced in above‐ground storage tanks by flood‐borne debris, specifically steel pipes and wood poles. Findings demonstrate that debris impacts across the examined velocity range generate stresses within safe limits, not exceeding the yield stress threshold.

Recent Advances in Oriented Hydrogels: From Fundamental Mechanisms to Future Challenges

SusMat, EarlyView.
Traditional hydrogels suffer from weak mechanical properties and limited functionality due to their random polymer networks. This review comprehensively summarizes the reinforcement mechanisms of oriented structure for hydrogels, the design/fabrication strategies, and the latest application progress of high‐strength oriented hydrogels.

The Potential Impact of a Socioscientific Issues Programme on Elementary School Students' Scientific Literacy

Journal of Research in Science Teaching, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Scientific literacy relates to how an individual uses their scientific knowledge and skills to participate as an active citizen in society. It is widely regarded and accepted as one of the most important goals of science education. Yet, in enacted curricula, this goal of science education has languished in the shadows, with many citing ...

Ungulate substrate use in fauna passages

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Fauna passages are increasingly constructed at major roads and railways to mitigate the negative effects of infrastructure and traffic on wildlife. The function of such passages depends on design, including the construction materials, soil, and vegetation.

Parturition timing and the pre‐ and post‐partum behaviour of female moose assessed using animal‐borne video and movement‐based approaches

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Limited information on moose calving behaviour, including parturition timing, cow‐calf interactions, and pre‐ and post‐partum movement patterns hinder our ability to define calving phenology and habitat use. GPS‐collars were deployed on 89 female moose over five years, including eight collars equipped with animal‐borne video and environmental data ...
