Fluid Dynamics and Infrared Stealth of Marine IRS Devices: A Review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Infrared suppression (IRS) devices for naval ships play a crucial role in reducing the infrared radiation signature of high‐temperature exhaust, thereby enhancing the survivability of ships against infrared‐guided weapons. This paper provides a comprehensive review of recent advancements in the design and optimization of IRS devices.

Navigating the Waves: The Global Pandemic's Impact on Container Shipping and Freight Rates Across Different Policy Scenarios

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The COVID‐19 pandemic has reverberated across global industries, including the international container shipping industry, where freight rates have become highly volatile. However, shipping lines appeared to thrive, particularly during the pandemic's initial 2 years.

Structural complexity of hard substrates shapes shallow marine benthic communities

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Structurally complex habitats offer niche diversity, with varying biotic and abiotic conditions, generally leading to higher biodiversity compared to simpler habitats. However, our understanding of the response of ecological communities to increased complexity and the underlying drivers remain ambiguous due to discrepancies in how complexity is ...

Mechanical properties of novel uniform/gradient auxetic structures made of CFRP composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Mechanical properties of novel uniform/gradient auxetic structures made of CFRP composites. Abstract Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) auxetic composite structures have attracted an increasing attention in recent years due to their lightweight and superior mechanical properties compared with traditional auxetic structures.

Urinary Proteomics and Systems Biology Link Eight Proteins to the Higher Risk of Hypertension and Related Complications in Blacks Versus Whites

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Blacks are more prone to salt‐sensitive hypertension than Whites. This cross‐sectional analysis of a multi‐ethnic cohort aimed to search for proteins potentially involved in the susceptibility to salt sensitivity, hypertension, and hypertension‐related complications.

How safe are peat‐free growing media? An exploration of plant pathogen risks to the horticultural industry and recommendations for risk mitigation

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The UK's horticultural industry is shifting from reliance on unsustainable peat‐based growing media to products that contain alternative constituents, including coir, bark, wood fibre and composted green waste. Some peat‐alternatives carry an elevated risk of harbouring plant pathogens, including the potential to introduce novel pathogens from overseas,

Induced allopatry as main mechanism explaining trap catch reduction in low dose mating disruption trials on the strawberry pest Acleris comariana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study evaluated pheromone‐based mating disruption of the strawberry pest Acleris comariana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae). In treated crop areas males were more attracted to the dispensers than to the trap lures and aggregated near such dispensers, explaining the low catches in traps in these areas as an effect of competitive disruption via induced ...
