Mechanical Behaviour of Vacuum‐Infused GFRP Composites at Elevated Temperatures—Influence of Fibre Architecture

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study addresses the influence of fibre architecture on the mechanical properties of vacuum‐infused glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites at elevated temperatures (ET). Laminates with three different fibre configurations—unidirectional (UD), bidirectional 0°/90° cross‐ply (BD), and ±45° off‐axis angle‐ply (OA) – were tested in ...

Visitor‐I and dual worldmaking: Queer museology between Tuntenhaus and the Schwules Museum

Feminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract This article develops the visitor‐I as an embodied protocol for analyzing how queer archival exhibitions choreograph perception, affect, and learning, and it uses dual worldmaking as a bounded heuristic to name the relation between lived worldmaking in the Tuntenhaus squat and curatorial worldmaking in the museum, and I argue that the visitor ...

Weaving strength and care: Situated reflections on women's work and the epistemology of care in biological anthropology

Feminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract This essay examines how gendered expectations, structural precarity, and institutional hierarchies shape research practices, knowledge production, and career trajectories in biological anthropology. Taking the figure of the “strong woman” as an entry point, it questions celebratory narratives of resilience that frame endurance as an individual

Recent advances in multifunctional soft robots: A materials–structures–systems co‐design perspective for synergistic integration

FlexMat, EarlyView.
Abstract Soft robots, engineered from highly compliant materials, offer superior adaptability and safety in unstructured environments compared to their rigid counterparts. Recent advancements, fueled by bio‐inspiration and material programmability, have led to the rapid co‐evolution of their core modules: actuation, sensing, protection, energy, and ...

Materials and Music: Selective Imperfection as a Generative Framework for Analysis, Creativity and Discovery

Interdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.
Vibrations in matter, from spider webs to molecules, water to flames, share a grammar with music. We propose that creativity emerges when constraints force expansion beyond existing possibilities. Selective imperfection restores balance, enabling invention.

Architecting nano‐Al/HMX/CuO energetic micro‐units unlocks superior interface and highly efficient combustion

InfoMat, EarlyView.
Improving the dispersion of nano‐aluminum is of great importance in explosives and propellants. The spherical Al/HMX/CuO energetic micro‐units were prepared using microchannel technology, which significantly improved the uniformity and dispersion of nano‐Al. It also enhanced the mass and heat transfer efficiency between the fuel and oxidizer components,

Optimizing feather hydrolysate via machine learning for microbial recycling of waste concrete fines

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The concrete industry faces significant challenges from CO2 emissions and the disposal of waste concrete fines (WCF). Microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) can bind WCF into bioconcrete, but the high cost of commercial culture media hinders its application.

Perceived Educational Value of a Self‐Developed 3D‐Printed Pediatric Dentistry Simulator

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To design and assess a 3D‐printed pediatric dentistry simulator and to evaluate its perceived educational value and realism through student and expert feedback. Methods A maxillary simulator that is mountable on phantom heads was developed and produced by desktop stereolithography with single‐use inserts, enabling proximal caries ...
