Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Peri‐implant soft tissue integration (STI), weaker than natural teeth, raises peri‐implant disease risk. Gingival‐region material surface properties critically modulate soft‐tissue responses, driving surface modifications to enhance STI. This review provides an in‐depth analysis of the challenges of STI around dental implants, comprehensively reviews ...

Focusing on climate-related internal displacement
Forced Migration Review, 2015 Global attention should place a primary focus on the application of best practice and the development of innovative initiatives to solve climaterelated internal displacement, rather than on grappling with the far rarer movements of people across borders.

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Low‐interfacial toughness PDMS/SiO2 coatings are applied to aluminum substrates and tested under natural high‐altitude conditions. The coatings demonstrate strong anti‐icing, icephobic, and large‐scale deicing performance. Field results highlight delayed freezing, reduced ice adhesion, and stable durability, offering practical insights into the use of ...

Enhancing Trustworthiness and Minimising Bias Issues in Leveraging Social Media Data for Disaster Management Response [PDF]
arXivDisaster events often unfold rapidly, necessitating a swift and effective response. Developing action plans, resource allocation, and resolution of help requests in disaster scenarios is time-consuming and complex since disaster-relevant information is often uncertain.

An Atomic‐Scale View at γ’‐Fe4N as Hydrogen Barrier Material
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.This study demonstrates the efficacy of γ’‐Fe4N nitride layers, formed via gas nitriding, as hydrogen permeation barriers. Advanced characterization, hydrogen permeation analysis, and DFT calculations reveal a 20 fold reduction in hydrogen diffusion at room temperature.

Crowdsourced bi-directional disaster reporting and alerting on smartphones in Lao PDR [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 Natural disasters are a large threat for people especially in developing countries such as Laos. ICT-based disaster management systems aim at supporting disaster warning and response efforts. However, the ability to directly communicate in both directions between local and administrative level is often not supported, and a tight integration into ...
