The Dynastinae (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) of the Cayman Islands (West Indies), with descriptions of Tomarus adoceteus, new species (Pentodontini) and Caymania nitidissima, new genus and species (Phileurini) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The five genera and eight species of dynastine scarabs occurring in the Cayman Islands in the West Indies are reviewed. Two new, endemic species are described from Little Cayman, with supporting illustrations: Tomarus adoceteus Ratcliffe and Cave ...

Immersive VR Visualizations by VFIVE. Part 1: Development

open access: yes, 2013
We have been developing a visualization application for CAVE-type virtual reality (VR) systems for more than a decade. This application, VFIVE, is currently used in several CAVE systems in Japan for routine visualizations.

Novel Surface‐Based Bézier Metamaterials: A Higher Degree of Parametrization toward Tailoring the Effective Properties under Compression

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Cubic Bézier curves are used in the synthesis of novel surface‐based metamaterials with tunable mechanical properties. Surface‐based geometries are 3D printed and tested in compression. The resulting mechanical properties are correlated to changes in the shape of the base curve, with high potential in energy absorption through the adjustment of their ...

Subterranean glacial spillways: an example from the karst of South Wales, UK [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Many karst areas in the UK have been glaciated one or more times during the last 0.5 Ma, yet there are few documented examples of caves in these regions being affected by glacial processes other than erosion.

A Comprehensive Review of Additive Manufacturing for Space Applications: Materials, Advances, Challenges, and Future Directions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing (AM) transforms space hardware by enabling lightweight, high‐performance, and on‐demand production. This review outlines AM processes—powder bed fusion (PBF), directed energy deposition (DED), binder jetting (BJ), sheet lamination (SL), and material extrusion (ME)—applied to propulsion, satellite structures, and thermal devices ...

Constraining Holocene hydrological changes in the Carpathian–Balkan region using speleothem δ18O and pollen-based temperature reconstructions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Here we present a speleothem isotope record (POM2) from Ascunsă Cave (Romania) that provides new data on past climate changes in the Carpathian–Balkan region from 8.2 ka until the present.

Bioinspired Materials, Designs, and Manufacturing Strategies for Advanced Impact‐Resistant Helmets

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores how bioinspired materials, structures, and manufacturing strategies transform helmet design to achieve enhanced impact resistance. Drawing inspiration from nacre, porcupine quills, beetle exoskeletons, and skull architectures, it highlights advances in auxetic lattices, nanocomposites, and functionally graded foams.

A Case Study on Logical Relations using Contextual Types

open access: yes, 2015
Proofs by logical relations play a key role to establish rich properties such as normalization or contextual equivalence. They are also challenging to mechanize.

Stabilized Intermediate Phase Via Pseudo‐Halide Anions Toward Highly Efficient and Light‐Soaking Stable Perovskite Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 12, March 18, 2025.
The formate pseudo‐halide anion is strategically introduced at the buried interface to stabilize the intermediate phases formed during perovskite crystallization. The controlled crystallization enhances crystallinity and alleviates tensile strain, eliminating residual PbI2 near the buried interface.
