Influence of Relative Permeability Formulations on Hysteretic Seepage in Infinite Slopes

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The paper investigates the impact of two classical relative permeability formulations, one expressed in terms of pore water pressure and the other in terms of degree of saturation, on the predicted seepage in an infinite slope subjected to surface pore pressure variations.

Computational Analysis of the Vibrational Response of Lunar Regolith Made of Nonspherical Grains

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vibration‐based systems have shown that appropriately oriented and tuned mechanical oscillations can disrupt regolith interlocking and promote flow. Building on this evidence, the present study investigates vibration‐controlled granular discharge as a potential ISRU (In Situ Resource Utilization) strategy, with the aim of supporting ...

Hypoplastic Model for Unsaturated Soils With Degree of Saturation Dependent Stiffness

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents an enhanced hydro‐mechanically coupled hypoplastic constitutive model for unsaturated soils, developed by extending an existing framework, with particular emphasis on improving the stiffness formulation to better capture the influence of the degree of saturation. The existing framework links Bishop's effective stress to the

A tipping point for tipping points

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Tipping points (TPs) – often understood as abrupt changes to a system – have become a popular framework for ecology and environmental science across spatial and temporal scales. The underlying, quantitative foundation of TP theory is built on mathematical models from catastrophe and predator–prey theories.

Single Versus Double Screw Extrusion: Impact on Mechanical Performance and Crack Resistance for a Virgin, Recycled, and Blended Polypropylene

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Schematic overview of the study approach and key findings. ABSTRACT To evaluate the influence of extrusion on material performance, three processing methods, single extrusion (1x Ex), double extrusion (2x Ex), and double screw compounding (C), were investigated for virgin polypropylene (vPP), recycled PP (rPP), and a blend containing 10% rPP (rPP10 ...

MXene‐Based Flexible Memory and Neuromorphic Devices

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
The unique two‐dimensional structure, excellent electrical conductivity, and diverse surface groups of MXenes have garnered significant attention. Coupled with their exceptional flexibility, MXene‐based devices hold immense potential for flexible memory and neuromorphic systems. This review comprehensively discusses the fundamentals of flexible devices,

Memristors Based on Ferroelectric Cu‐Deficient Copper Indium Thiophosphate for Multilevel Storage and Neuromorphic Computing

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Different from CIPS with threshold switching behaviors, Cu‐deficient CIPS* shows stable non‐volatile digital and analog RS. Owing to the formation of metallic IPS at the LRS, CIPS* memristors demonstrate high ON/OFF ratio and endurance stability, which can be utilized to implement multilevel storage.

Thermosensitive Nanostructured Coacervates Developed by Mixing ABA‐ and AB‐Block Copolymers and Their Unique Sustained Release of Nano‐Micelles in a Regulated Manner

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Polyion complex micelles composed of blends of ABA and AB block copolymers can form coacervates with a hexagonally packed cylinder nanostructure after heating. The resulting coacervates can release the micelles under physiological conditions in a zero‐order kinetics, possessing cargo proteins.
