Efficient Poisson’s Ratio Evaluation of Weft-Knitted Auxetic Metamaterials
Textiles, 2023 Auxetic metamaterials expand transversely when stretched longitudinally or contract transversely when compressed, resulting in a negative Poisson’s ratio (NPR).

Computational fluid dynamics model for a variable conductance thermosyphon
Case Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2021 A variable conductance thermosyphon is a unique type of heat pipe that responds passively to changes in thermal environment because of the presence of non-condensable gas (NCG).

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada
Population Ecology, EarlyView.We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...
