International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The EAC‐1A lunar mare simulant, a silty sand, was selected by the European Astronaut Center (EAC) for use in the LUNA analogue facility's lunar simulation testbed. Its stress‐ and strain‐dependent shear modulus and damping ratio were determined via resonant column testing on specimens prepared either from ambient moisture material or oven ...

Integrating Grain to Ground Motion Data for Critical Rock Bridge and Slope Failure Analysis
International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rock masses can fail catastrophically with little warning, yet their stability depends on hidden internal connections that channel forces and localise damage. Among these, rock bridges–a “known unknown” in slope mechanics–lock fractured rock and control how failure unfolds, but their concealed geometry and uncertain strength obscure where and ...

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.Comparison of powder impregnation and hybrid commingled non‐wovens for PA6/rCF nonwoven composites. The two‐step powder route gives lower voids and higher properties, while the single‐step hybrid route is limited by precursor inhomogeneity and high void content.

Moisture Effects on the Dimensional Stability of Bistable Carbon/Epoxy Laminates
Polymer Composites, EarlyView.Experimental and numerical approach for studying moisture effects on composite dimensional stability. ABSTRACT Bistable composite laminates are attractive because they can switch between two stable shapes without continuous energy input, enabling applications in morphing structures and energy harvesting devices.

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.Multiscale modeling for dynamic installatioin. ABSTRACT The dynamic installation of metal interference bushings has demonstrated significant potential for improving the mechanical performance of carbon fiber‐reinforced polymer (CFRP) joints. However, the underlying mechanisms governing the remaining life enhancement remain insufficiently understood ...

Moisture Absorption in Highly Porous Closed‐Cell Polymeric Foams
Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.The conventional one‐dimensional hindered diffusion model has been extended into a new Void Filling Hindered Diffusion Model. By quantifying the moisture stored within closed‐cell pores, this model successfully captures the distinct absorption behaviors observed across varying foam thicknesses.

Laser‐Direct Printed 2D Material‐Based Heterostructure for the Fabrication of Electronic Devices
Small, EarlyView.The Digital Laser‐Induced Forward Transfer (LIFT) approach is employed to pattern and stack 2D materials with micrometer‐scale precision. PdSe2 and MoSe2 are assembled into vertical p–n junctions, with graphene serving as a transparent electrode. The resulting laser‐transferred heterostructures exhibit high material quality and stable rectifying ...
