Tipping elements and climate-economic shocks: Pathways toward integrated assessment

open access: yes, 2016
The literature on the costs of climate change often draws a link between climatic 'tipping points' and large economic shocks, frequently called 'catastrophes'. The use of the phrase 'tipping points' in this context can be misleading.

A Comparative Study on Early‐Stage Icing Evaluation Techniques for Passive Ice Protection Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study addresses the lack of standardized methodologies for evaluating the early‐stage icing performance of passive ice protection systems. A unified experimental protocol is proposed and applied to representative hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces under controlled conditions.

Morphology‐Controlled Silica Nanoparticle Coatings for Transparent Radiative Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Transparent radiative cooling coatings are achieved by immobilizing solid and hollow silica spheres on glass. Particle morphology within sub‐monolayer coatings is shown to govern the trade‐off between visible and atmospheric window reflectance. Hollow‐sphere structures enable reduced thermal emission losses while preserving transparency, highlighting ...

Multiscale Imaging Methodology for Surface Morphological Changes in Lithium Metal Anode Using Coupled Operando OM and In Situ EC‐AFM

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A sequential multiscale imaging methodology integrates operando optical microscopy with in situ electrochemical atomic force microscopy to characterize lithium anode surface evolution during galvanostatic cycling under dual current densities. This unified approach enhances measurement consistency through correlative micro‐to‐nanoscale visualization ...

Investigation of the relationships between basin morphology, tectonic uplift, and denudation from the study of an active fold belt in the Siwalik Hills, central Nepal [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The present study investigates correlations between an extensive range of geomorphic properties that can be estimated from a digital elevation model and the uplift rate on geological timescales.

Anti‐Slip Material‐Based Strategies and Approaches

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This review highlights the principle mechanisms of slipping at the microscale, linking contact mechanics with a friction behavior model for surface interfaces. Main strategies to develop anti‐slip properties to the surfaces are discussed alongside standardized testing approaches.
