The Hidden Harvest: Harnessing Colorado's Geodiversity and Environmental Heterogeneity for Sustainable Agritourism

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Colorado's geologic, pedologic, topographic, hydrological, and climatic contrasts create strong but under‐synthesized opportunities for sustainable agritourism. This review investigates how geodiversity, and the broader environmental heterogeneity within which it operates, can be used to diversify farm income, strengthen place‐based visitor ...

Application of Circular Economy Principles to Power Generation: Extending the Life of A Hydropower Plant by Pumped Hydro Energy Storage

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The application of circular economy, which aims to maximize efficiency and reduce waste, to renewable energy sources necessitates, given the intermittent nature of the latter, robust energy storage solutions to ensure grid stability and avoid wasting energy.

Causal Relationship Between ESG Assessment Criteria and SDGs for PPP Projects: A Fuzzy Cognitive Approach

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) assessment criteria have received substantial recognition for investment decision and practical steps to achieving the sustainable development goals (SDGs). Given the global reliance on public‐private partnership (PPP) to bridge infrastructure deficit, investment into these projects is on the rise; it

Engineering Janus Nanofiber Interfaces for Simultaneous Triboelectric Enhancement and Wearable Comfort

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
A moisture‐wicking Janus bilayer triboelectric nanogenerator (MW‐JBT) that integrates directional moisture transport with dielectric‐engineered electrospun nanofibers was developed. When incorporated into a plantar sensing system and combined with a deep learning algorithm, the MW‐JBT achieved a fall‐detection accuracy of 88.5%. This study demonstrates

Programmable Porosity in Polymers via Microfluidic Templating and 3D Printing

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
Fluid templating is a powerful way to produce porous polymers. Microfluidic technologies enable fine control over the dimension and packing of bubbles and droplets. Combined with additive manufacturing, microfluidic templating enables the creation of polymeric functionally graded porous materials in which both porosity and three‐dimensional geometry ...

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

AI‐Based Automated Instrument Tracking During Endoscopic Skull Base Surgery: A Pilot Feasibility Study

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Endoscopic endonasal approaches (EEA) to skull base tumors are a technically challenging procedure for both surgeons and trainees. Artificial intelligence and computer vision (CV) may offer an objective analysis that provides surgical assessment on technique and enhanced educational feedback for surgeons of all levels.

Diffusion of Characteristic Gases in Oil‐Immersed Transformer by Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulation and Experimental Verification

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The complex diffusion of characteristic gases within oil‐immersed transformers significantly influences the timeliness between the fault occurrence and gas detection. So far, the gas transport processes and spatio‐temporal distributions remain inadequately understood.
