Upscaling the Strength Domain of Heterogeneous Cohesive‐Frictional Materials via a General FFT‐Based Limit Analysis Approach

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 12, 30 June 2026.
ABSTRACT Limit analysis and yield design provide a well‐defined mathematical framework for upscaling the strength properties of heterogeneous materials. These techniques can be incorporated into an FFT‐based computational micromechanics framework to evaluate the strength of heterogeneous materials, based on images of their microstructure.

Anisotropic Biot Coefficient of Fractured Rocks Drives Failure Conditions in Pressurized Reservoirs

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract We present a theoretical framework to quantify the equivalent Biot coefficient tensor of fractured rock masses based on the properties of both the intact porous matrix and the fracture network. Our results show that the presence of dominant fracture sets produces an anisotropic equivalent Biot tensor, with larger values in the direction ...

The Effect of Hydraulic Fracturing on the 2021 Ms 6.0 Luxian Earthquake as Revealed by Deformation and Numerical Simulations

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract This study investigates whether hydraulic fracturing contributed to the 2021 Ms 6.0 Luxian earthquake in the Sichuan Basin. Time‐series InSAR analysis of multi‐temporal Sentinel‐1 data reveals coseismic deformation associated with the 2021 Luxian earthquake and localized uplift near hydraulic fracturing platforms.

Delamination of Vermiculite into Ultrahigh‐Aspect‐Ratio Nanosheets

open access: yesZeitschrift für anorganische und allgemeine Chemie, Volume 652, Issue 9, 3 June 2026.
Efficient ion exchange allows for thermodynamically driven delamination of vermiculite into high‐aspect ratio nanosheets. The applicability of sustainable materials in the packaging industry is currently limited by the poor gas barrier performance of most biodegradable polymers.

Printed Organic Thermoelectric Generators: Progress and Challenges Towards Efficient Energy Harvesting

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 11, 5 June 2026.
Printed organic thermoelectric generators (OTEGs) enable flexible and sustainable energy harvesting from low‐grade heat. This Perspective critically assesses recent advances in printable thermoelectric materials, 2D and 3D device architectures, and current performance limits of printed OTEGs.
