The Renal Function of the Wild Rodent Cerradomys goytaca Reveals Adaptations in the Mechanisms of Urinary Concentration and Solute Excretion

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 7, Page 772-784, August 2026.
Renal adaptations of Cerradomys goytaca associated with survival in its natural habitat. Graphical Abstract of the main renal physiological characteristics identified in C. goytaca. This species exhibits an increased kidney mass index, elevated urine osmolality, and enhanced tubular water reabsorption, indicating a higher capacity for water ...

Static and Dynamic Analysis of Porous Gas Bearings Lubricated With Air, Refrigerant R‐134a, Helium and Hydrogen

open access: yesLubrication Science, Volume 38, Issue 5, Page 301-326, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Porous gas bearings (PGBs) enable high‐speed, oil‐free operation in modern rotating machinery. This study develops a coupled thermo‐hydrodynamic (THD) model for a cylindrical porous gas bearing lubricated with four working fluids—air, R‐134a, helium and hydrogen.

Feasibility of convection‐enhanced delivery of unlabeled 225Ac for glioblastoma: Transport, dosimetry, and clonogenic survival modeling

open access: yesMedical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background Glioblastoma (GB) is an aggressive primary brain tumor with local recurrence rates exceeding 90% and a five‐year survival rate of approximately 5%. Standard treatments such as surgical resection, external beam radiotherapy (EBRT), and chemotherapy often leave residual tumor cells that are resistant to therapy.

A Coupled Extended Finite Element–Cohesive Zone Model for Hydraulic Fracture Propagation Under Poroelastic Effects Across Different Propagation Regimes

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 11, Page 4518-4540, 10 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Numerical simulation of hydraulic fracturing remains challenging due to the strong coupling between geomechanics and fluid flow when modelling multiple physical mechanisms of rock deformation, fracture evolution and fluid leak‐off. This study develops a coupled hydraulic fracture propagation framework that combines the extended finite element ...

Numerical Modeling of Geological Fault Reactivation Using Sequential Coupling Strategies

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 11, Page 4339-4359, 10 August 2026.
ABSTRACT The interaction between fluid flow and mechanical deformation in fault zones can lead to processes of fault reactivation, triggering potential geomechanical problems such as seismicity, well collapse, fluid migration to shallower layers, and aggravated surface subsidence.
