Microstructural Characters of Lyctinae and Dinoderinae (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae)

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2010
Thirty-three species belonging to the bostrichid subfamilies Lyctinae and Dinoderinae were examined by low vacuum ESEM without sputtering. Eight types of microsculpture, five types of hair insertion, and 14 types of hair were found on the elytral disc ...

Piezoresistivity Enhancement by Graphite Flake Alignment in Thin Composite Films for Dielectric Elastomer Switches

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article presents dielectric elastomer switch (DES) materials, based on composite thin films. Alignment of graphite flakes due to their physical confinement within the thin films lead to much stronger piezoresistive responses than bulk composites, while their durability exceeds that of conventional liquid‐based DES materials.

Investigating the Applicability of Alignment—A Monte Carlo Simulation Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
Traditional multiple-group confirmatory factor analysis (multiple-group CFA) is usually criticized for having too restrictive model assumption, namely the scalar measurement invariance.

Voltage‐Reconfigurable Magneto‐Ionic Nanolayers in Dot Arrays for Probabilistic, Materials‐Engineered Security Primitives

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A magneto‐ionic security‐by‐materials‐design strategy exploits voltage‐driven N3– migration in selectively contacted FeCoN dots, creating reconfigurable sub‐15 nm ferromagnetic sublayers with deterministic and/or probabilistic (single‐domain↔vortex) states, voltage‐tunable probabilities and fully stochastic orientation/chirality.

Synergistic Effects in Multistate Black Electro‐Thermochromic Smart Windows for Energy‐Efficient Modulation of Solar Heating

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hybrid electro‐thermochromic smart windows are developed for dynamic climate control by integrating a redox‐matched black electrochromic gel with a paraffin‐based thermochromic film. This synergistic combination enables multimodal solar modulation, where photothermal heating from the electrochromic layer triggers thermochromic activation at lower ...

Investigation of Plant Surfaces with Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy (ESEM®) - A Comparison with Conventional SEM

open access: yesActa Biologica Slovenica, 2003
Environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) enables the investigation of untreated and watercontaining material without preparation with the benefit of SEM (depth of focus and three dimensional imaging of surfaces with a high resolution ...

Comparing the ESEM and CFA approaches to analyze the Big Five factors [PDF]

open access: yesAvaliação Psicológica, 2017
Marsh (2007) asserts that no self-reported questionnaire of the Big Five factors shows an acceptable degree of adjustment in confirmatory factor analyses (CFA).

Self‐Responsive Plastron Maintenance on a Superhydrophobic Mesh via Locally Integrated Electrolysis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a self‐switchable SHM‐E surface that enables rapid, autonomous plastron self‐repair and long‐term stability. Plastron loss triggers circuit closure and localized electrolysis, while capillary spreading rapidly restores a continuous plastron and self‐terminates the current.

Reconsidering the structure of the questionnaire for eudaimonic well-being using wide age-range Japanese adult sample: An exploratory analysis

open access: yesBMC Psychology, 2022
Background An increasing amount of research is now highlighting the importance of approaching issues of happiness through eudaimonic well-being. However, the literature does not conclusively show a full understanding of the construct of eudaimonic well ...

Unlocking the Full Potential of Jumping Condensation on Microstructured Surfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Microcone arrays exhibit a spacing‐dependent transition between jumping and non‐jumping condensation. Dense microstructures favor full Cassie droplets, which depart cleanly, while wider spacing favors partial Cassie droplets that retain a localized wet region initiating new nucleation. These findings establish a link between microdroplet morphology and
