Flood Pulse Design Principles—A Time-Based Approach to Urban Flooding
This chapter explores the potential of a time-based, nature-inspired approach to urban flood resilient design in the context of SeaCities. As a vast majority of existing coastal cities develop along continental shorelines and are in the proximity of rivers (accounting for freshwater supply, anchorage, etc.), coastal urban development is exposed to ...

Unraveling the Effects of Depolarization in Ultrathin Barium Titanate
This article employs synchrotron‐based spectroscopy, time‐resolved electrical measurements, and phase‐field simulations to establish reverse‐domain formation as the mechanism of polarization loss in ultrathin BaTiO3${\rm BaTiO}_3$ films as a critical obstacle to low‐voltage ferroelectric devices.

Hard carbon derived from templated poly(dicyclopentadiene) as anode for sodium–ion batteries was engineered through carbonization and second‐step CO2${\rm CO}_2$ activation. High‐temperature carbonization and activation increased local ordering while reducing defects without inducing structural fracture.

Mississippi River-floodplain connectivity level mediates fish assemblage dynamics
The life histories of many Louisiana fishes are tied to the timing, magnitude, and duration of the Mississippi River flood pulse. Anthropogenic modifications designed to control and restrict flood waters have decoupled Louisiana’s floodplains from the ...

Oxygen‐scavenging‐induced self‐formed interlayers regulate Schottky‐barrier modulation in IGZO memristors, producing a fundamental trade‐off between synaptic update linearity and retention. A preserved AlOx interlayer moderates voltage distribution and enables gradual, nearly linear conductance updates, whereas a soft‐broken SiO2 interlayer provides a ...

Modulation of Local Environment for Selective Bicarbonate Conversion to Multi‐Carbon Products
Highly porous Cu electrode partially coated with an ionomer/carbon composite enables efficient conversion of bicarbonate to multi‐carbon products. By regulating the local reaction microenvironment, this strategy overcomes selectivity and reaction‐rate limitations, achieving Faradaic efficiencies of 43% for ethylene and 60% for total multi‐carbon ...
