Development of Variable Elastic Band with Adjustable Elasticities for Semi-Passive Exosuits

open access: yesBiomimetics
Active exosuits provide various assistive force profiles but are limited by battery life, weight, and complex maintenance requirements. Passive exosuits, by contrast, are economical and lightweight while also offering unlimited usage times; however, due ...

Efficient Education Policy - A Second-Order Elasticity Rule [PDF]

open access: yes
Assuming a two-period model with endogenous choices of labor, education, and saving, efficient education policy is characterized for a Ramsey-like scenario in which the government is constrained to use linear instruments.

Hybrid Auxetic Architectures: Integrating Curvature‐Driven Design for Enhanced Mechanical Tunability and Structural Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Curvature‐tuned auxetic lattices are designed, fabricated, and mechanically characterized to reveal how geometric curvature governs stretchability, stress redistribution, and Poisson's ratio evolution. Photoelastic experiments visualize stress pathways, while hyperelastic simulations quantify deformation mechanics.

Economic Growth, Urbanization, and Transport Emissions: An Investigation of Elasticity-Based Decoupling Metrics in the Gulf

open access: yesEconomies
Transport is among the fastest-growing contributors to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region, where rapid urbanization, population growth, and high mobility demand continue to shape energy use.

Advancing Research on Biomaterials and Biological Materials with Scanning Electron Microscopy under Environmental and Low Vacuum Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Herein, environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) is discussed as a powerful extension of conventional SEM for life sciences. By combining high‐resolution imaging with variable pressure and humidity, ESEM allows the analysis of untreated biological materials, supports in situ monitoring of hydration‐driven changes, and advances the functional ...

2D analysis of rifts in ice shelves

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
Two-dimensional (2D) views dominate the application of linear elastic fracture mechanics to problems in ice-shelf rift propagation, yet from the perspective of fracture mechanics, processes at the rift front are inherently three-dimensional (3D).
