Numerical Insights Into the Resistance Reduction Mechanisms of Forward Tapered Transoms in High‐Speed Catamaran: A Computational Fluid Dynamics‐Based Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the hydrodynamic influence of forward transom tapering on a displacement catamaran hull using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. Five taper configurations ranging from a vertical transom base design to a fully tapered stern (1.00B) were evaluated over a wide Froude number range (Fr = .3 to 1.0).

Capturing Complex Rate‐Dependent Behaviors of Saturated Clays: A Fractional Consistency Kinematic Hardening Viscoplastic Approach

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Saturated high plasticity clays show complex nonlinear, rate‐dependent, and hysteresis behaviors under non‐monotonic stress paths, requiring advanced mathematical constitutive equations for accurate description. Taking into account the inherent advantages of kinematic hardening mechanisms in simulating complex stress histories, this paper ...

Estimating European Pilchard (Sardina pilchardus) Total Length: New Equations for the Ichthyoarchaeological Record

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Throughout its area of distribution, in particular in the Iberian Peninsula, the European pilchard (Sardina pilchardus Walbaum 1792) has been an extensively exploited species since Prehistoric times. Our knowledge of the past fisheries of this clupeid nevertheless remains limited due to a scarcity of ichthyoarchaeological data, which reflects,

Overexploitation can counteract top‐down control and the paradox of enrichment in simple food chains

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Because of its high abundance or its high feeding intensity, a consumer can overexploit its resource by consuming it on a shorter timescale than resource regeneration. While this short‐term overexploitation is widespread in nature, its general implications for biotic control patterns and ecosystem stability are not clear.

Marine trophic architecture and hidden ecological connections in the Strait of Magellan: keystone species and ecosystem resilience

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Understanding the ecological implications of species coexistence is central to biodiversity studies and to identify environmental and anthropogenic drivers of ecosystem dynamics, where ecological network analysis offers valuable insights. This study examines the complexity, structure, and potential responses to disturbances of the Strait of Magellan's ...
