Conformal Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces: A Cylindrical Geometry Perspective

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Cylindrical reconfigurable intelligent surfaces are explored for low‐complexity beam steering using one‐bit meta‐atoms. A multi‐level modeling approach, including optimization‐based synthesis, demonstrates that even minimal hardware can support directive scattering.

The Role of Actual and Purported Origin in e‐Commerce Wine Pricing: Evidence From Italian and French Names on Labels

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The origin of a product, if associated with good quality, can contribute to building a positive collective reputation, leading to a potential price premium. However, it is conceivable that a producer markets a product by evoking symbols, images, words, and values typical of places other than where it was designed or produced, creating a ...

Interactive Evolution of Camouflage [PDF]

Artificial Life, 2011
This article presents an abstract computation model of the evolution of camouflage in nature. The 2D model uses evolved textures for prey, a background texture representing the environment, and a visual predator. A human observer, acting as the predator, is shown a cohort of 10 evolved textures overlaid on the background texture.

Encoding and Encryption via Dual‐Wavelength 3D Digital Light Processing

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Multi‐wavelength 3D DLP printing enables information encoding that can be encrypted on demand by applying orthogonal stimuli within a single material to trigger complementary responses. The 405 nm LED of the printer fabricates complex 3D geometries, while the 365 nm LED activates spiropyrans photochromism to program information into the structure ...

Drivers of tail evolution in squamates and their implications for the fossorial origin of snakes

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The axial skeleton serves as the primary structural support in all vertebrates and is subdivided into five distinct regions: cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, and caudal. Relaxation of constraints acting on the terminal end of the axial skeleton has led to remarkable variation in caudal vertebrae number across Squamata.

Deep-subwavelength multilayered meta-coatings for visible-infrared compatible camouflage

Nanophotonics
Camouflage is a common technique in nature, enabling organisms to protect themselves from predators. The development of novel camouflage technologies, not only in fundamental science, but also in the fields of military and civilian applications, is of ...

Comparative micro‐ornamentation patterns of reptile skin: Phylogeny‐ecology debate and species‐specific variations

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Phylogenetic limitations seem more decisive than life habit in the diversity of reptile skin micro‐ornamentation. The ancestral form possibly had polygonal cells with regular borders, smooth surface and had no ridges. Cell morphology change gradually on a single scale, especially widths at scale base are greater than those at middle.

Legal and ethical considerations around the use of existing illustrations to generate new illustrations in the anatomical sciences

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 289-300, March 2025.
Abstract It is likely existing anatomical illustrations are often used as the basis for new illustrative works, given not all illustrators have access to human tissues, bodies, or prosections on which to base their illustrations. Potential issues arise with this practice in the realms of copyright infringement and plagiarism when authors are seeking to
