Robert Hooke: tercentennial studies

open access: yes, 2006
Book synopsis: Robert Hooke (1635-1703) was a genius whose wide-ranging achievements are at last receiving the recognition that they deserve. Long overshadowed by such eminent contemporaries as Sir Isaac Newton and Sir Christopher Wren, Hooke's own ...

Catchy Elements (Hooks) in Popular Music. Toward a Musicological Theory of Hit Songs

open access: yesEdukacja Muzyczna
The theory of the hit song is a highly intriguing research topic. In the musicology of Western countries, it already has a history and a kind of canon of texts and methodologies, which have yet to gain broader recognition in Poland. The author discusses and introduces what he considers to be the two most important texts that help explain the musical ...

Interplay Between Deep Convection and Mesoscale Gravity Waves

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 21, 16 November 2026.
Abstract Although the association between precipitation and mesoscale gravity waves (MGWs) is well documented, the feedback mechanisms governing their amplification remain difficult to isolate. This study uses convection‐permitting numerical simulations with 1–4 km grid spacing to investigate a complex MGW event that occurred over the south‐central ...

Design of a Multistable Finger Prosthesis with Programmable Metamaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 21, 4 November 2026.
This research article shows the development of a multistable programmble metamaterial for the use as a finger prosthesis. The material was designed on different hierarchical levels where the influence of geometrical parameters and combination of mechanical elements was explored.

Comparative Stress Analysis and Parametric Optimization of Crane Hooks Using Finite Element Analysis

open access: yesEngineering, Technology & Applied Science Research
Crane hook failure is associated with high stress concentrations at the inner curvature. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is widely used to evaluate crane hook performance; however, simplified analytical methods can deviate significantly from numerical results, particularly for highly curved geometries.

General Solution Scaling Relations in Linear Elastic Dynamic Rupture Models

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract Dynamic rupture models have been widely used to enhance our understanding of earthquake processes and associated hazards. A commonly held insight among modelers is that if the initial stress, rheological parameters, and space and time coordinates are scaled by certain factors in a specific manner, the solution will scale accordingly and remain

State of Stress in Subduction Zone Forearcs: Influence of the Mantle Wedge Corner and Serpentinization

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract We investigate the role of the elasticity and density of the forearc mantle wedge corner on the stress distribution in the forearc region of subduction zones, using numerical quasi‐2D lithospheric deformation models for the Cascadia, Nankai, NE Japan, and Costa Rica subduction zones. We incorporate the forearc mantle wedge corner as an elastic
