The role of substrate materials for the survival and growth of coral micro‐fragment sheets

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Biofouling can have a negative impact on the survival and growth of corals in aquaculture. For coral aquaculture to support reef restoration, there needs to be a cost‐effective and efficient method that reduces the reliance on labor for coral maintenance.

Recycling of inorganic waste in monolithic and cellular glass-based materials for structural and functional applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The stabilization of inorganic waste of various nature and origin, in glasses, has been a key strategy for environmental protection for the last decades. When properly formulated, glasses may retain many inorganic contaminants permanently, but it must be

Propagation method and species drive survival patterns across reef zones in coral seeding on the Great Barrier Reef

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coral reef restoration increasingly relies on scalable methods, yet outcomes vary across species, propagation techniques, and habitats. Coral seeding, where coral propagules are settled on deployment units before outplanting, provides a flexible approach that accommodates both asexual (e.g. microfragments) and sexual (e.g.

Robust Inverse Material Design With Physical Guarantees Using the Voigt‐Reuss Net

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 7, 15 April 2026.
ABSTRACT We apply the Voigt‐Reuss net, a spectrally normalized neural surrogate introduced in [38], for forward and inverse mechanical homogenization with a key guarantee that all predicted effective stiffness tensors satisfy Voigt‐Reuss bounds in the Löwner sense during training, inference, and gradient‐driven optimization.

Method for repair of thin glass coatings [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
A method of repairing cracks or damaged areas in glass, in particular, glass coatings provided on tile. The method includes removing the damaged area using a high speed diamond burr drilling out a cavity that extends slightly into the base material of ...
