Exploring the Use and Impact of Composite Materials in Robotics: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lightweight and high‐strength materials are important in robotics, as structural design impacts efficiency, payload capacity, and energy consumption. Composite materials, with their superior stiffness‐to‐weight ratios and multifunctional properties, offer clear advantages over conventional metals and polymers.

Trace Element Contamination in Top Predatory Elasmobranchs From the Southern Black Sea: Implications for Ecosystem Health and Risk Assessment

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution resulting from the rapid increase in human population, urbanization, intensive use of chemicals in agriculture, and industrial development has reached a level that threatens natural life today. Trace elements are one of the most important factors causing significant levels of pollution in the environment and are added ...

rDNAmine: A New Tool for the Analysis of Long Repetitive Sequences

open access: yesYeast, EarlyView.
This work introduces a novel approach for analysing long repetitive genomic sequences, combining a method to isolate large DNA molecules from individual chromosomes. We also describe the bioinformatics tool rDNAmine, which enables the isolation of long‐repeat sequences from reads obtained using the Oxford Nanopore method, as well as their preliminary ...

Jellyfish Partition Categories [PDF]

open access: yesAlgebras and Representation Theory, 2019
For each positive integer $n$, we introduce a monoidal category $\mathcal{JP}(n)$ using a generalization of partition diagrams. When the characteristic of the ground field is either 0 or at least $n$, we show $\mathcal{JP}(n)$ is monoidally equivalent to the full subcategory of $\operatorname{Rep}(A_n)$ whose objects are tensor powers of the natural $n$
