ABSTRACT Growing environmental awareness has intensified demand for sustainability and transparency, especially in cruise tourism, a high‐impact and highly scrutinised service context. This study examines how green consumption values (GCV) shape passengers' perceptions of the credibility of green marketing claims (believability) and, in turn, influence

Acoustic‐driven surface cleaning with millimeter‐sized bubbles at translational resonance
Time‐lapse visualization comparing bubble trajectories. The top panel (0 Hz) shows a bubble's linear path under no acoustic forcing, while the bottom panel (50 Hz) demonstrates the oscillatory motion induced by acoustic waves at a resonance mode. This mechanism holds promising potential for applications such as surface cleaning.

Effect of Sequential and Combined Space‐Based Stressors on Perovskite Solar Cell Stability
A correlation between loss in performance and mobile ion concentration has been established by sequential stressing of perovskite solar cells under Low Earth Orbit conditions with exposure to protons, light, and thermal cycling. It is shown that the loss in performance increases when ion concentration increases and vice versa.

Study of the time-dependent clear water scour around circular bridge piers
The local scour around bridge piers influences their stabilities and plays a key role in the bridge failures. The estimation of the maximum possible scour depth around bridge piers is an important step in the design of the bridge pier foundations.

Obstetrics and gynecology devices designed for low‐ and middle‐income countries: A narrative review
Abstract There are many barriers contributing to poor health outcomes for women in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs), one of which is the lack of necessary medical devices. Presently, the development of various kinds of devices intended to improve women's health outcomes specifically in LMICs remains underrepresented in the literature; therefore,

Microbiome—pancreatic cancer crosstalk: From tumor biology to therapeutic intervention
The intratumoral microbiome acts as a critical regulator in pancreatic cancer progression and therapeutic resistance. This comprehensive review delineates the origins of pancreatic microbes, elucidates their multifaceted mechanisms in driving immune suppression, metabolic reprogramming, and stromal desmoplasia, and highlights the clinical potential of ...
