ASSESSMENT OF PINCH GRIP STRENGTH AND HAND GRIP STRENGTH IN PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP-ARTISTS
Background: Professional makeup artists perform repetitive and precision-based hand movements for prolonged durations, requiring sustained grip and pinch strength. Continuous use of fine motor skills, static postures, and prolonged tool handling may predispose these professionals to reduced hand strength and work-related musculoskeletal disorders ...

Phase Field Failure Modeling: Brittle‐Ductile Dual‐Phase Microstructures under Compressive Loading
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The approach by Amor and the approach by Miehe and Zhang for asymmetric damage behavior in the phase field method for fracture are compared regarding their fitness for microcrack‐based failure modeling. The comparison is performed for the case of a dual‐phase microstructure with a brittle and a ductile constituent.

Fostering Innovation: Streamlining Magnetocaloric Materials Research by Digitalization
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Magnetocaloric cooling (MCE) is an environmentally friendly refrigeration method with great potential. Optimizing MCE materials involves the preparation and screening of large quantities of samples, which in turn generates a large amount of data. A digitalization approach is presented that uses ontologies, knowledge graphs, and digital workflows to ...
