Performance evaluation of thick carbon fiber‐reinforced laminates manufactured using six‐magnetron microwave system

Polymer International, EarlyView.
IM7/Cycom 5320‐1 unidirectional prepreg has been used to fabricate 64‐layer laminated composites. A custom‐built six‐magnetron microwave applicator and an autoclave were employed to manufacture the composite panels. Mechanical performance of the microwave‐cured composites has been juxtaposed to autoclave‐cured composites in terms of uniaxial tensile ...

Effect of Resonant Mixer Granulation Parameters on Prill Properties

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Resonant mixing is a promising processing approach to manage mixing of materials with high solids content and has shown strong performance for mixing powders and pastes in energetic materials. This has led to the exploration of the approach for granulation of primary particles into millimeter‐sized agglomerates, including for generating ...

From Flybys to Sample Return: A Review of Space Probes and Robotic Sampling Technologies for Small Bodies

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Restoring Lateral Connectivity to Anthropogenic Riverscapes: Six Lessons From Stage Zero

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Centuries of river modification, particularly straightening and incision, have severely reduced lateral connectivity between rivers and their floodplains. As a result, Stage 0 riverscapes, characterised by high lateral connectivity (e.g., anastomosing or wetland riverscapes), are now rare in anthropogenic landscapes.

Metalinguistic Awareness in the EFL Classroom and Beyond: Exploring the Potential of Translation Tasks

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Current trends encouraging a move away from monolingual teaching have sparked a renewed interest in the role of translation in language instruction. Yet, there are few theoretically and empirically grounded proposals regarding specific uses of translation in the language classroom.

Impact of Environmental Microparticles on Insect Olfaction

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Terrestrial insects underpin key ecosystem services, including pollination, herbivory regulation, decomposition, nutrient cycling, and disease control. These functions depend on chemical communication that guides insects to food, mates, hosts, shelters, and oviposition sites while helping them avoid threats.

AML‐Net: Attention‐based multi‐scale lightweight model for brain tumour segmentation in internet of medical things

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Brain tumour segmentation employing MRI images is important for disease diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment planning. Till now, many encoder‐decoder architectures have been developed for this purpose, with U‐Net being the most extensively utilised. However, these architectures require a lot of parameters to train and have a semantic gap. Some

The first evidence of breeding by Crocothemis sanguinolenta and Zygonyx torridus (Odonata: Libellulidae) in Iran [PDF]

Journal of Insect Biodiversity and Systematics
For the first time, exuviae of Crocothemis sanguinolenta and Zygonyx torridus were collected from southern parts of Iran. Females of Z. torridus were also observed mating and ovipositing in two habitats.
