Off-Axis Tension Behaviour of Unidirectional PEEK/AS4 Thermoplastic Composites
An experimental method for non-standard off-axis tension tests of unidirectional composites is developed. A new oblique end-tab is designed to eliminate stress concentration and in-plane bending moment induced by off-axis tension loading.

Coordinated Architectural and Chemical Reinforcement in the Crushing Mandible of a Soldier Termite
The crushing mandible of a soldier termite withstands substantial biting loads despite lacking mineral. Its cuticle is partitioned: convex teeth pair hardness and zinc enrichment with aligned chitin fibers for contact durability, while stiffer concave regions between teeth carry bending loads.

BSA addition to physiological solutions enhances resistance of a Zn alloy to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) but reduces its corrosion resistance. Extended surface characterization explains the contrasting influences on corrosion and SCC. Unexpectedly, the alloy suffers transgranular SCC (TGSCC), despite extensive grain boundary precipitation.
