Ice shelf flexures modeled with a 2-D elastic flow line model

, 2011
. Ice shelf flexures modeling was performed using a 2-D finite-difference elastic model, which takes into account sub-ice-shelf sea water flow. The sub-ice water flow was described by the wave equation for the sub-ice-shelf pressure perturbations ...

Developmental differences in cortical bone structure in chimpanzee and human femora reflect early locomotor independence in humans

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The cortical bone structure of long bone diaphyses changes throughout growth via skeletal modeling and has important implications for bone strength and structural integrity. Ontogenetic trends in diaphyseal structure have been identified in both chimpanzees and humans but it is not yet clear how these trends compare given notable differences ...

The coupling between ocean waves and rectangular ice sheets [PDF]

, 2019
This paper describes a semi-analytic approach to problems involving rectangular elastic plates of shallow draft floating on water. Specifically, two problems are considered: the scattering of plane monochromatic incident waves by a single elastic plate ...

Harnessing plant‐based platform for low‐cost cellulosic sugar recovery from bioenergy crops

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The price of pure cellulase enzyme for the recovery of fermentable cellulosic sugars is one of the major challenges that limit the commercialization of second‐generation biofuels and bio‐based products. This work shows a means to greatly reduce the cost of cellulases. The abundant capacity of plants to synthesize and hyperaccumulate transgenic

Effect of transversely variable thickness of an ice plate on periodic hydroelastic waves propagating in a frozen channel

Linear hydroelastic waves propagating in a frozen channel are investigated. The channel has a rectangular cross-section, finite depth and infinite length. The liquid in the channel is an inviscid, incompressible liquid and covered with ice.

A Critical Analysis of Microsoft's Rhetoric and Reality of Sustainability Engagement

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study critically examines Microsoft's environmental, social and governance (ESG) rhetoric and operational reality, to offer insights that extend beyond conventional greenwashing or bluewashing. Drawing on over 20 years of Microsoft's sustainability reports (2003–2024), third‐party ESG evaluations and media investigations, it employs ...

Key Challenges for Commercializing Perovskite–Silicon Tandem Solar Cells

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
This review discusses the scientific and technological challenges in advancing perovskite–silicon tandem solar cells (PSTSCs) from lab‐scale to commercial viability, focusing on long‐term stability, scalability, and economic feasibility. Key issues include intrinsic and extrinsic degradation factors, installation conditions, environmental impacts, and ...

Talin1 Adhesion Morphology and Colocalization With Tensin3 Are Largely Unaffected by Polyacrylamide Substrate Stiffness

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cells sense the stiffness of their extracellular matrix (ECM) and adapt their behavior accordingly. We investigated how ECM stiffness affects the spatial organization of talin1, a key mechanosensitive focal adhesion protein. Using polyacrylamide (PA) hydrogels with tunable stiffnesses (0.2–188 kPa), we analyzed cell morphology, migration ...

Experimental Investigation of Ice Accretion Effects on a Swept Wing

, 2005
An experimental investigation was conducted to study the effects of 2-, 5-, 10-, and 22.5-min ice accretions on the aerodynamic performance of a swept finite wing. The ice shapes tested included castings of ice accretions obtained from icing tests at the

Resource‐Efficient Electrodes with Metallized Woven‐Glass‐Grid Current Collectors for Lithium‐Ion Batteries

ChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
The use of metallized glass‐based woven‐grids instead of metal foils as current collectors for LIBs leads to a significant reduction in metal usage by over 90 % and weight savings of more than 80 %, resulting in an 11 % increase in specific energy at the cell level. Abstract A novel class of resource‐efficient, woven‐glass‐grid current collectors (CCs)
