This review highlights recent advancements in Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD) techniques tailored for tubular samples. The mechanisms of processing are critically discussed with emphasis on microstructural control and the governing process parameters that enable refinement to ultrafine‐ and nano‐grained structures. Comparative insights into equivalent

ABSTRACT This study presents large deformation computational methods to simulate lateral vehicular impacts on steel piles in granular soil. Soil‐mounted longitudinal barrier systems rely on energy dissipation in both the piles and the surrounding soil to safely redirect errant vehicles, so dynamic pile‐soil interaction is important for design ...

Cubic Lattice Rib Shape: Tuning of Poisson's Ratio and Cosserat Characteristic Length
Cubic rib lattices are studied in the context of effects of rib cross‐section shape on Poisson's ratio and on Cosserat characteristic length. It is possible to control Poisson's ratio over a wide range via appropriate rib cross‐section shape. Both Cosserat characteristic lengths can be made much larger than the cell size for torsion dominated rib ...

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

Highly Dynamic Soft Electrohydraulic Origami Actuators for Agile and Multimodal Robotic Locomotion
Most current soft robots still lag far behind their natural counterparts in both agility and speed, mainly attributed to the limited morphing modes and performance of soft actuators. Here, the authors report a new methodology of electrohydraulic origami (EHO) for creating powerful and multimodal soft actuators with large strain, high speed, lightweight,
