Second‐Life Thermoset Manufacturing via Mild Solvolysis of Epoxy‐Matrix Composites and Wet‐Laid Mat Production

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
From end‐of‐life pultruded CFRP profiles (1) to second life composites (7) through mild solvolysis (2,3), wet‐laid nonwoven mat fabrication (4), resin impregnation (5), and compression molding (6). ABSTRACT The growing use of carbon fiber–reinforced thermosets has led to the accumulation of significant composite waste, posing environmental and economic

Development and Evaluation of a Low‐Cost, Semi‐Automated Camera Trap for Surveying Bumble Bee Communities

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Camera traps are emerging as a useful tool for noninvasive insect monitoring; however, it remains unclear how to lure diurnal insects to traps, how to detect them upon arrival, and how camera‐based methods compare to conventional sampling. We developed a low‐cost, open‐source camera trap to monitor wild bumble bees in agricultural fields. We found that

The Hidden Costs of Coffee Production in the Eastern African Value Chains

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is increasing recognition that significant hidden costs associated with agrifood systems are not reflected in market prices. Coffee is among the three most traded agricultural commodities in the world and supports the livelihoods of more than 30 million smallholder households.

Leveraging Life Cycle Assessment for Informing Packaging Eco‐Design and Eco‐Modulation

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eco‐modulation is designed to promote the adoption of eco‐design. However, in practice, its application is mostly concentrated on end‐of‐life (EoL) optimization. This study addresses the gap by proposing a framework to assess product–packaging systems as integrated units throughout the full life cycle.

On the Strength of Corrugated Panels for Ship's Wall

Journal of Zosen Kiokai, 1964
In part 1, the compressive strength of corrugated panels is described, showing the fact that the corrugated plate will reach its maximum load when the part of corrugation with effective width, buckled plastically after the part of flat plate between corrugated waves, buckled elastically.In part 2, shearing rigidity of corrugated plates is studied, and ...

Spatially Resolved Strain Mapping In Flexible Oxide Membranes

Small, EarlyView.
High‐resolution synchrotron x‐ray diffraction reveals how strain transfers and distributes within crystalline oriented oxide membranes (10–100 nm thick) on flexible substrates that are subjected to stretching and bending. The study uncovers local strain heterogeneities that deviate from macroscopic averages, providing a crucial framework when ...

Concrete in architecture: Redefining form, space, function, and insights from bibliometric analysis

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Concrete has become a cornerstone in architectural and engineering innovation, as it seamlessly integrates structural performance with artistic expression. Its evolution from ancient opus caementicium to contemporary ultra‐high‐performance concrete illustrates its adaptability to the change in technological, environmental, and design paradigms.
