Concrete in architecture: Redefining form, space, function, and insights from bibliometric analysis

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Concrete has become a cornerstone in architectural and engineering innovation, as it seamlessly integrates structural performance with artistic expression. Its evolution from ancient opus caementicium to contemporary ultra‐high‐performance concrete illustrates its adaptability to the change in technological, environmental, and design paradigms.

End-to-End Bayesian Segmentation and Similarity Assessment of Performed Music Tempo and Dynamics without Score Information

open access: yesMusic & Science
Segmenting continuous sensory input into coherent segments and subsegments is an important part of perception. Music is no exception. By shaping the acoustic properties of music during performance, musicians can strongly influence the perceived ...

Advances in classical and quantum wave dynamics on quasiperiodic lattices : a dissertation submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Physics, Centre for Theoretical Chemistry and Physics, New Zealand Institute for Advanced Study, Massey University, Albany, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Lattices and discrete networks are cornerstones of a number of scientific subjects. In condensed matter, optical lattices allowed the experimental realization of several theoretically predicted phenomena.

No one should die alone: “Just holding hands” among vigil volunteers in Denmark

open access: yesEthos, EarlyView.
Abstract A wealth of societal concerns about loneliness has surfaced in recent years, raising questions about the negative impacts of increasing social lacks. Exploring a widespread saying among Danish vigil volunteers that “No one should die alone,” we ask: What is at stake in this concern with lonely deaths? And how is relationality practiced at life'

With or without you: Family and Career‐Work in a Demanding and Precarious Profession

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, Volume 62, Issue 8, Page 3386-3424, December 2025.
Abstract Family arrangements are crucial to people’s abilities to meet the high demands of professional careers; but most scholarship has examined stable, highly remunerated professions. To understand the relationship between career and family within the increasing number of precarious professions, we analyse interviews with 102 journalists.

Muon Simulations for Super-Kamiokande, KamLAND and CHOOZ

open access: yes, 2006
Muon backgrounds at Super-Kamiokande, KamLAND and CHOOZ are calculated using MUSIC. A modified version of the Gaisser sea level muon distribution and a well-tested Monte Carlo integration method are introduced.

Autonomous Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 45, November 13, 2025.
An ideal implant should mimic native tissues such that it can integrate, sense, heal, and continue to function, i.e., be autonomous. Although early, there are good steps taken in this way, e.g., the development of stimuli‐responsive, self‐powering, self‐actuating, self‐healing, self‐regenerating, and self‐aware implants.

Conformally Perforated Shellular Metamaterials with Tunable Thermomechanical and Acoustic Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 42, October 15, 2025.
This study introduces Conformally Perforated Shellular Metamaterials (CPSMs), which overcome TPMS design limitations by mapping 2D cellular layouts onto 3D surfaces. CPSMs exhibit enhanced elastic stiffness, thermal conductivity, and acoustic performance compared to intact P‐type shellulars, demonstrating their potential as multifunctional ...

Universal 1/f Noise from Dissipative SOC Models

open access: yes, 1999
We introduce a model able to reproduce the main features of 1/f noise: hyper-universality (the power-law exponents are independent on the dimension of the system; we show here results in d=1,2) and apparent lack of a low-frequency cutoff in the power ...

The Effect of Seductive Details on Knowledge Retention in Physics Videos: A Mixed Methods Study

open access: yesJournal of Research in Science Teaching, Volume 62, Issue 8, Page 1923-1940, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Research reports that interesting but irrelevant information, seductive details, in teaching material can impede learning. In science education, the inclusion of historical narratives in lessons to promote interest has been recommended but may hinder learning.
