Telecological Collapse: The Inevitability of Climate Breakdown in the Transmedial Podcast Drama Forest 404

Future Humanities, Volume 4, Issue 1, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a close‐hearing analysis of Forest 404, a transmedial audio drama that was released to BBC Sounds in 2019. Despite the drama's eco‐dystopian critique of teleological ‘progress’ narratives (that enable and perpetuate the destruction of the natural world), I argue that the series ultimately propagates a sense of inevitability

Heat Transfer Performance of Biphilic Surfaces With Diatomite‐Based Composite Coatings in a Closed Thermosyphon System

Heat Transfer, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 1608-1638, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the thermal performance of innovative biphilic boiling surfaces designed for CPU cooling applications using a two‐phase closed thermosyphon (TPCT) system. The surfaces were fabricated by applying composite coatings—comprising epoxy resin and diatomite particles functionalized with APTES and PFOTS silanes— onto Al1050 ...

Acting authentically: Using play to cultivate authentic interrelating in role performance

Journal of Organizational Behavior, Volume 47, Issue 4, Page 527-549, May 2026.
Summary Research is increasingly demonstrating that authenticity and human connection are fundamental and interrelated human needs. However, organizational roles often constrain authenticity and connection in workplace interactions, especially roles that are highly scripted.

Bisexual releases are as effective as male‐only releases to control Drosophila suzukii with the sterile insect technique

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 4536-4543, May 2026.
Bisexual releases are as effective as male‐only releases to control Drosophila suzukii with the sterile insect technique. Releasing sterile Drosophila suzukii males or males and females in cages led to the same degree of induced sterility in wild females.

Why Autonomous Vehicles Are Not Ready Yet: A Multi‐Disciplinary Review of Problems, Attempted Solutions, and Future Directions

Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 2254-2341, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Personal autonomous vehicles can sense their surrounding environment, plan their route, and drive with little or no involvement of human drivers. Despite the latest technological advancements and the hopeful announcements made by leading entrepreneurs, to date no personal vehicle is approved for road circulation in a “fully” or “semi ...

Experiences With a Last Meter Delivery Robot

Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 1626-1645, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The steady growth of e‐commerce is a consolidated trend continuously increasing the number of parcels delivered worldwide. Conventionally, in logistics, last mile delivery has been the area of study covering the last step of a parcel delivery process: from the nearest distribution center to the customer.

Active Particles in Tunable Compressible Environments

Small Science, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2026.
Gold‐capped active microparticles powered by electric fields plough their way through a matrix of repulsive spheres, shoveling them aside. At high densities and field strengths, an initial strong direction fluctuation may compress the matrix asymmetrically and lead to an asymmetric reaction favoring sustained turns to the same side (spontaneous ...

Self‐Incandescent Heating‐Driven Microstructural Consolidation of Biscrolled Cu/CNT Yarns for Reduced Frequency‐Dependent AC Resistance

Small Methods, Volume 10, Issue 9, 8 May 2026.
Self‐incandescent heating (SIH) induces microstructural consolidation in biscrolled Cu/CNT yarns, resulting in improved electrical conductivity, a smaller frequency‐dependent increase in AC resistance within the measured range, and stable electrical performance under repeated bending.
