Mortars From Punic and Hellenistic–Roman Solunto: Materials, Formulations, and Technology

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents an archaeometric investigation of 18 hydraulic rendering and bedding mortars from Punic and Hellenistic–Roman Solunto (NW Sicily). The research aimed to characterize raw materials, reconstruct manufacturing sequences, and evaluate technological proficiency through mineralogical and petrochemical analyses.

Modern Fire Safety Protocols in the Archeological Contexts: A New Tool for Studying the Health and Behavioral Effects of Fire Use in Semi‐Closed Spaces

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluates the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, integrated with controlled fire experiments, to investigate combustion processes in semi‐closed spaces. The framework enables systematic modeling of smoke dispersal, particulate transport, and hearth performance under variable morphologies and ventilation ...

Individualized Pathfinding in Rugged Open Terrains Using Semantic Navigation Meshes

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We introduce semantic navigation meshes for complex outdoor terrains, partitioning space into regions with coherent semantic properties like slope or vegetation density. The resulting graphs enable efficient pathfinding with agent‐specific, parameterized cost functions without precomputation, accelerating search while maintaining path quality close to ...

Canopy position and tree size structure the distribution of honeydew‐producing scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) in a temperate hardwood forest

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Scale insect abundance peaked in the upper canopy of sugar maples. Parthenolecanium peaked on older internodes; Lepidosaphes on the current leader. Internodes longer than the previous carried more scales; wider ones fewer. Abstract Forest canopies are vertically stratified habitats in which microclimate and host tissue quality vary with height.
