Performance Analysis of an Ice-Based Buoy Operating from the Packed Ice Zone to the Marginal Ice Zone with an Imaging System

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Arctic sea ice can be regarded as a sensitive indicator of climate change, and it has declined dramatically in recent decades. The swift decline in Arctic sea ice coverage leads to an expansion of the marginal ice zone (MIZ).

Coordinated Architectural and Chemical Reinforcement in the Crushing Mandible of a Soldier Termite

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The crushing mandible of a soldier termite withstands substantial biting loads despite lacking mineral. Its cuticle is partitioned: convex teeth pair hardness and zinc enrichment with aligned chitin fibers for contact durability, while stiffer concave regions between teeth carry bending loads.

Analysis of Electro-Thermal De-Icing on a NACA0012 Airfoil Under Harsh SLD Conditions and Different Angles of Attack

Aerospace
Ice accretion (icing) on aircraft surfaces is a significant safety risk through airfoil shape modification and reduction in aerodynamic efficiency. This process occurs when an aircraft flies through clouds of supercooled water droplets that freeze upon ...

An Integrated Oxygen‐Supplying Device and Predictive Multiphysics Model for Extended Ambient Transport of Insulin‐Producing Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cell therapies typically rely on cold‐chain logistics and cryopreservation, limiting access and compromising cell quality. Here, a dual‐chamber device separates an oxygen‐supplying chamber from a hyaluronic acid cargo chamber, sustaining oxygen delivery for over 70 h and enabling ambient‐temperature shipment.
