An Elasto–Plastic Hydro–Mechanical Model for Analyzing the Swelling Behavior of Heterogeneous Clay–Sulfate Rocks

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Swelling of clay‐sulfate rocks is a concern in geotechnical engineering that can damage infrastructure. In the historic town of Staufen in southwest Germany, geothermal drilling into a swellable anhydrite‐bearing clay formation resulted in water inflow and subsequent swelling, triggering ground heave and damage to more than 250 houses.

Body Size, Dental Pathology, and Maternal Genetic Diversity of Ancient Horses in the Eastern Baltic Sea Region and Western Russia

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The early evolutionary history of modern domestic horses (Equus caballus/Equus ferus caballus), known as the DOM2 lineage, is well documented due to numerous archaeological and ancient DNA (aDNA) studies. Although many uncertainties remain in the domestication timeline, current evidence suggests that the domestication of modern horses began in

Lichen‐Derived Mineral Residue as a Renewable Particulate Filler in Polylactic Acid Biocomposites: Structure, Melt Rheology, Viscoelastic, and Flexural Behavior

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Lichen residue, a renewable mineral‐organic material, was melt compounded with polylactic acid and triacetin in a twin‐screw extruder. ABSTRACT A lichen‐derived natural material, known as “höllük” in southeastern Turkey, is introduced as a renewable filler for polylactic acid (PLA).

Molecular Basis for Uracil‐DNA‐Glycosylase to Identify DNA Damage in the Nucleosome

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The DNA base‐excision repair (BER) pathway is initiated by a glycosylase, such as uracil‐DNA‐glycosylase (UDG), which identifies and removes a wrong base incorporated in the DNA sequence. The very early steps in the identification of the DNA damage are crucial to the correct initiation of the repair chain, and become even more complex when ...

Drift‐Corrected Monocular VIO and Perception‐Aware Planning for Autonomous Drone Racing

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Abu Dhabi Autonomous Racing League (A2RL) x Drone Champions League (DCL) competition requires teams to perform high‐speed autonomous drone racing using only a single camera and a low‐quality inertial measurement unit—a minimal sensor set that mirrors expert human drone racing pilots.
