Flooding, flood sources and flood defences
, 2012 The EU Flood Directive defines “flood” as the temporary covering by water of land not normally covered by water. This shall include floods from rivers, mountain torrents, Mediterranean ephemeral water courses, and floods from the sea in coastal areas, and may exclude floods from sewerage systems.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The WTP is a key component of static drainage PEMFCs, enabling cathode water removal and gas sealing through capillary forces. This work investigates the mechanisms governing WTP drainage and sealing performance and develops predictive approaches for WTP design optimization.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Acidic CO2 electroreduction to formic acid is enabled by integrating mixed Sn/SnOx nanoclusters, K+‐regulated interfacial solvation, and Janus wettability. Coordinated control of active sites, interfacial water, and gas‐liquid transport suppresses hydrogen evolution and delivers approximately 85% HCOOH Faradaic efficiency at 400 mA cm−2.

Anode‐Free Sodium Metal Batteries: From Materials Design to System‐Level Integration
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Anode‐free sodium metal batteries hold no sodium reserve, so every inefficiency becomes permanent loss. Resolving the inventory into reversible, dead, and chemically bound fractions exposes what Coulombic efficiency hides. Practical 500‐cycle operation requires above 99.95%, a threshold few systems meet under lean electrolyte and high areal capacity ...

Emergence of Unconventional Magnetic Order in Strain‐Engineered RuO2/TiO2 Superlattices
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Epitaxial strain activates unconventional magnetism in rutile RuO2, absent in bulk or relaxed RuO2. Polarized neutron reflectometry with atomic‐layer resolution directly reveals finite magnetization confined to RuO2 layers in fully strained RuO2/TiO2 superlattices on TiO2 (110).

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.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 ...

Satisfaction issues in the reinstatement of flood damaged domestic property [PDF]
, 2004 The frequency of flooding is forecast to increase in the UK, as is the number of properties at risk of flooding. Following major floods in England and Wales in recent years, questions have been raised concerning the quality of service received by insured

Understanding defence failures and coastal flood events: a case study approach
, 2013 Extreme sea level events are a current global threat, whilst sea-level rise (SLR) and climate change over the 21st century will increase the frequency and severity of flooding in most coastal regions.

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.A combination of discrete and finite element method models for the current collector deformation and electrochemical performance analysis, respectively. The models are calibrated and validated with electrochemical and imaging data of hard carbon electrodes. These electrodes were manufactured with different parameters (slurry solid contents of 35 and 40
