Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Durability of concrete pavement strengthened with asphalt layer with FRP fibres

open access: yesArchives of Civil Engineering, 2018
Pavements made of cement concrete, used for road constructions, are damaged during use. This applies to both the pavements of rural and forest roads with very low traffic loads, as well as road pavements with high traffic loads. One of the most effective

Investigating the Performance Characteristics of Asphaltic Concrete Containing Nano-Silica [PDF]

open access: yesCivil Engineering Infrastructures Journal, 2017
Using nano-technology materials in the asphalt pavement industry is new compared with Portland cement concrete. The main objective of this study is to investigate the effects of nano-silica modification on some properties of a penetration grade asphalt ...

Asphalt Cement Containing AC-13, HR-522, Final Report, 1988 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
Stopping and turning maneuvers on high traffic volume asphalt cement concrete surfaced roads and streets often cause distortion of the pavement. Distortion may show up as excessive rutting in the wheel path, shoving of the pavement and/or rippling of

Cannibal Salvage Expenditure: The Subaltern Style of the Urban Peruvian Amazon

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper explores the political ecology of subaltern existence at the urban cutting edge of our apocalyptic present, in the case of Iquitos in the Peruvian Amazon. Through an ethnographically surrealist montage of multiple elements across the themes of accumulation, architecture, and art, cannibal salvage expenditure emerges as a subversive ...

Precipitation mechanism of anhydrite cement in lacustrine tight sandstone: Implications for fluid activity, mass transfer and pore origin of open diagenetic system in tight sandstone

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
This paper discusses a new model concerning the precipitation mechanismand significance of anhydrite cement in tight sandstone. Anhydrite cement ismainly formed by the dissolution and reprecipitation of early‐diageneticcalcite cements, feldspars and volcanic rock fragments at the mesodiageneticstage.

Bioprinted Constructs in the Regulatory Landscape: Current State and Future Perspectives

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 4, 16 January 2026.
Bioprinting has rapidly emerged as a transformative technology in biomedical research, offering unprecedented potential to replicate complex tissues. Despite its promise, clinical translation remains limited due to regulatory hurdles. This review explores global regulatory frameworks, comparing approaches in the EU, U.S., China, and Australia, and ...
