The aesthetic sublime of megaproject structures: A framework and a research agenda
European Management Review, EarlyView.Abstract The physical structures of megaprojects—such as mega‐canals, metros, railway lines, bridges, tunnels, and iconic opera houses—hold a profound capacity to generate aesthetic experiences with enduring societal impact. Yet, research on megaprojects has predominantly focused on functionality and economic rationale with aesthetics being pushed to ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.We introduce ENHYDROSS, a new mechanistic model that uses optimal swimming speed and minimum cost of transport to estimate maximum dispersal distances and durations for vertebrates, enabling assessment of long‐distance oceanic dispersal potential. Applied to a range of extant and extinct animals, the model's estimates generally align with observed data;

Cavitation aggressiveness on a hydrofoil [PDF]
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2019 To improve the analyses of the cavitation erosion phenomena, cavitating flows around an instrumented hydrofoil were studied experimentally and numerically. The experiments allowed the assessment of cavitation aggressiveness by measurements from PVDF pressure sensors.

A Theory for Hydrofoils of Finite Span [PDF]
Journal of Mathematics and Physics, 1954 The program of this report is as follows: After a brief survey of the available theoretical and experimental information on the characteristics of hydrofoils, the theory for a hydrofoil of finite span will be formulated. The liquid medium is assumed to be incompressible and nonviscous and of infinite depth.
