Finite Element Modeling of a Thermoplastic Polyurethane Ball for Rolling Seismic Isolation
ABSTRACT The Elastomeric‐Ball Pendulum (EBP) system, which consists of an elastomeric ball rolling on a spherical concrete surface, has been proposed as an isolation system for lightweight structures. Experimental tests have shown that the mechanics of such a rolling ball are remarkably complicated because the vertical load changes the shape of the ...

ABSTRACT Objective Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a severe psychiatric disorder displaying an altered gut microbiome. Faecal microbiome transplantation (FMT) has emerged as a powerful research tool and potential treatment option in AN due to the microbiome‐gut‐brain axis. Current studies are limited and reveal variable FMT protocols.

Char Layer Thickness Evolution During Structural Timber Fire Experiment and Final Density Profile
ABSTRACT This paper evaluates several non‐destructive experimental methods for determining the char layer thickness and its density profile in structural timber samples exposed to standard ISO 834 fire curve experiments. Microwave echo pulse, ultrasonic echo pulse, X‐ray computed tomography, and resistance drilling were evaluated.

Earnings Inequality in Germany [PDF]
Recent studies have documented the growth of earnings inequality in the United States during the 1980s. In contrast to these studies' findings, our analysis of micro data for the former West Germany yields virtually no evidence of growth in earnings ...

A Pd(II) allyl‐amidinate complex catalyzes the selective oxidation of benzyl alcohols to aldehydes using allyl alkyl carbonates as tailored, mild oxidants. The carbonate reagent acts both as oxidant and in situ base, enabling chemoselective conversion and minimizing overoxidation under mild conditions.

Phosphoramidate and Silyl Amine Mediated Synthesis of Isocyanide Cyclopentadienone Iron Complexes
Carbonyl ligands in cyclopentadienone iron complexes are replaced by isocyanide ligands without using free, malodorous isocyanides. The reaction takes place via an Aza‐Wittig‐type reaction starting from primary amines, employing either phosphoramidates or silyl amines as intermediate reagents.

Perovskite‐based time‐domain signal‐balancing LiDAR sensor with centimeter depth resolution
In this study, we present a monolithic high‐speed perovskite‐based photodetector capable of directly sensing the time delay between two light pulses with a temporal resolution of at least 170 ps. This outstanding time resolution is achieved through a signal‐balancing detection scheme that effectively overcomes the limitations of conventional ...
