Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.Optically confined gold nanorods exhibit cooperative light‐driven dynamics, forming mobile end‐to‐end dimers with orientation‐dependent propulsion. Using structured laser traps and an opto‐thermo‐hydrodynamic model, we uncover how optical binding, polarization‐induced torque, and near‐surface hydrodynamics govern their motion.

Rigorous Electromagnetic Quasinormal‐Mode Method Made Easy for Users
Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.We present a method that combines numerical techniques with accurate approximations to enable simple and ultrafast computations of the scattered field based on quasinormal modes expansions. The method is made available in the open‐source package MANlite implemented within COMSOL.

The paradox of mosquito net fishing: Complex socio‐ecological trade‐offs in southwestern Madagascar
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Small‐scale fisheries are vital for the livelihoods, nutrition and well‐being of millions of people in coastal regions. In many parts of the Global South, rising poverty, limited alternatives and declining resources have driven the spread of mosquito net fishing (MNF), a non‐selective practice using repurposed health‐distributed nets.

Systems of reciprocity in human–ocean relationships: Across time, place, language and culture
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract In the face of large‐scale marine environmental challenges, solutions that meaningfully capture the complexity of socio‐cultural and economic factors contributing to such issues—and their solutions—are urgently needed. This scoping review explores examples of reciprocity in human–ocean relationships to inform the conceptual underpinning and ...

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.An exposure‐time‐controlled MSLA fabrication strategy enabling filler‐free functionally graded polymers, resulting in up to a 62% reduction in specific wear rate. ABSTRACT Masked stereolithography (MSLA) enables high‐resolution fabrication of photopolymer components; however, the limited tribological performance of neat resins restricts their ...

Relation of Bulk‐to‐Shear Loss Factors in Viscoelastic Auxetic Metamaterials
physica status solidi (b), EarlyView.This article examines the dynamic behavior of isotropic auxetic viscoelastic materials, highlighting how negative Poisson's ratios affect energy dissipation, damping, and the interplay between bulk and shear moduli. By extending established viscoelastic theories to the auxetic range, it defines bound limits and underscores how dynamic Poisson's ratio ...
