Conceptualizing Resilience, Sustainability and Smartness for Building Fire Risk Management
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Resilience, sustainability, and smartness (ReSuSm) within the building construction sector impact, or are impacted by building fires in one way or another. Hence, consideration of ReSuSm for building fire risk management (BFRM) is imperative to enhance safety and mitigate adverse impacts.

Evaluating lightning hazards to building environments using explicit numerical solutions of Maxwell's equations [PDF]
The objective here is to describe the lightning hazards to buildings and their internal environments using advanced formulations of Maxwell's Equations. The method described is the Three Dimensional Finite Difference Time Domain Solution.

High‐Resolution AFM Visualization of Nanocellulose Surface Grafting with Small Molecules
Small, EarlyView.The covalent grafting of small molecules to the surface of nanocellulose is demonstrated for the first time using high‐resolution frequency modulation atomic force microscopy (FM‐AFM). The grafted molecules are distinctly visible and distinguishable from typical surface defects.

Three-dimensional time domain model of lightning including corona effects [PDF]
A new 3-D lightning model that incorporates the effect of corona is described for the first time. The new model is based on a Thin Wire Time Domain Lightning (TWTDL) Code developed previously.

Small Structures, EarlyView.In this study, dielectric nanoantennas made of silicon nanoparticles are explored as low‐loss alternatives to traditional metallic ones. Using DNA origami, their interaction with fluorophores at the single‐molecule level is investigated, observing enhanced decay rates with high quantum yield amid minimal quenching.

The Effect of Seductive Details on Knowledge Retention in Physics Videos: A Mixed Methods Study
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, EarlyView.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.
