Feral Territories: The Suburbanization of Nature in Eastern Bangkok

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Between the 1960s and 1980s, American and international financial and technical assistance spurred men with means to bring together concrete, asphalt, timber, and steel to construct unplanned, poorly serviced (because they were unplanned), and expensive subdivisions at the outskirts of what was then central Bangkok.

Fascinating single‐cell red algae: models for evolution and adaptation

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1424-1437, May 2026.
Summary The unicellular red algae, Cyanidiophyceae, that diverged early during Archaeplastida (algal and plant) evolution, occupy a variety of extreme habitats that are inhospitable for most other eukaryotes. With the use of modern genomics and genetics methods, Cyanidiophyceae show a remarkable taxonomic diversity, share haplodiplophasic life cycles ...

Evaluation of Poisson’s Ratio of Asphalt Concrete [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Poisson´s ratio can be defined as the negative ratio of strains perpendicular to the load direction to the strains parallel to the loading direction. If elastic or viscoelastic models are used, Poisson´s ratio, together with elastic modulus, is a main ...

Dynamic Viscoelasticity of Modified Asphalt

open access: yesJournal of The Japan Petroleum Institute, 1972
The physical properties and the dynamic viscoelasticity of the modified asphalt were investigated and the following results were obtained.(1) The asphalt modified by the catalytic semiblowing has the gel type colloid structure as expressed by As/P, where As is the asphaltene content and P is the state of peptization of asphaltene micelle.

Piezoresistive Monitoring of Carbon Nanomaterial‐Reinforced Epoxy Composites Under Cyclic and Fatigue Loading: A Review

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 8, 22 April 2026.
Carbon nanomaterial‐reinforced epoxy composites exhibit pronounced piezoresistive behavior, enabling intrinsic damage sensing under cyclic and fatigue loading. This review critically compares carbon nanotube and graphene systems, correlating filler content, percolation threshold, and gauge factor with sensing stability and damage evolution.
