Periods, Pains, Pills, and Performance—Fighting Blood, Bodies and Biology

open access: yesSociological Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper draws on various data from long‐term immersion in combat sports to explore the period experiences of cis women fighters. We blend theoretical ideas from the social scientific literature on menstruation and the sociology of medicalization, pain and injury.

Renewing Concerns of Technical Complexity in Accidents Research: An Argument to Retain Perrow's “First Thesis”

open access: yesJournal of Contingencies and Crisis Management, Volume 34, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT It has been 40 years since Charles Perrow published the landmark work Normal Accidents ([1984]1999), built largely on an analysis of the Three Mile Island (TMI) nuclear power plant accident. While still a highly influential framework in the study of complex systems, the status of the argument remains in flux.

Elephant‐Skin‐Inspired Porous Cementitious Tiles with Programmable Crack Networks for Passive Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 44, 7 August 2026.
Elephant‐skin‐inspired crack networks are programmed in porous diatomaceous earth (DE)‐cement composites using substrate‐guided, stress‐concentration induced fracture. The resulting crack lattices act as capillary conduits that redistribute water, while the porous matrix stores moisture.

Digital Twin of a One‐Sun‐Driven Luminescent‐Concentrator‐Assisted Planar Solar‐Pumped Fiber Laser

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, Volume 14, Issue 30, 14 August 2026.
An experimentally‐validated digital twin of a one‐sun solar‐pumped fiber laser enables a design exhibit 13‐times higher output power at 1064 nm to be achieved. Despite its simple appearance, the multitude of choices in the design parameters make finding this improved very tedious in the lab, thus the digital twin can save significant time and effort ...
