Fluorescently Labeled Gradient Hydrogels Reveal Matrix‐Dependent Cell Responses to Substrate Stiffness

Small, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates a new thermophoretic strategy to fabricate fluorescently labeled stiffness gradient hydrogels, enabling contactless stiffness characterization. Fibroblasts cultured on gradient GelMA and Gellan gum hydrogels revealed distinct cell morphology and migration behavior.

Effects of Exposure to Radiation and Steam on Silicone Rubber Cables Removed From a Nuclear Power Plant

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Low‐voltage cables insulated with silicone rubber were harvested from three locations in the primary containment vessel of a boiling water nuclear power plant (NPP). Subsequently, the cable, which was placed in an ambient environment with a relatively higher temperature and the highest rate, was cut into four shorter ones.

The plasticisation model of dye diffusion: Part 8

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Re‐evaluation using the Williams–Landel–Ferry equation, of exhaustion/rate of dyeing/fixation data previously reported for and acid dye, natural dye and two reactive dyes on three different types of silk substrate revealed that thermally activated dye diffusivity is governed by the thermally regulated structural relaxation times of the ...

Accelerated Fatigue Testing of High‐Speed Steel

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The staircase method is commonly employed in the characterization of metals to determine their fatigue limit. In this approach, the stress amplitude is systematically varied around the assumed fatigue limit in consecutive tests. However, its applicability for in‐process optimization in alloy design and development is limited by the large ...

Standing on a common ground: a comparison of static stability approaches for pallet loading

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract At the practical level, the static stability constraint is one of the most important constraints in practical pallet loading problems, such as air cargo palletizing. Approaches to modeling static stability, which range from base support and mechanical equilibrium calculations to physical simulation, differ in workflow, focus, and assumptions ...

Fit for purpose? Analysis of the relationship between skull, beak shape and feeding ecology in Psittaciformes

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Psittaciformes exhibit high levels of morphological diversity, particularly in skull and beak structure, previously linked to diet and body size. Although there were some levels of significance between diet and beak shape, body mass was a much stronger co‐variate. Diet is not determining beak shape within the clade.

Zirconia, titanium, and polyetheretherketone implant abutments show equal long‐term clinical success—A systematic review and network meta‐analysis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Hundreds of millions of people have one or more missing teeth. Consequently, a substantial number of patients undergo implant therapy each year. However, technical complications and soft tissue inflammation associated with the implant abutment or the type of restoration can lead to bone loss and, ultimately, implant failure.

Dimension reduction for optimal design problems with Kronecker product structure

Scandinavian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper is motivated by the problem of optimal allocation of trials in multi‐environment crop variety testing with a large number of varieties. Optimizing the allocation of trials results in the minimization of a design criterion with a Kronecker product structure in the information matrix.

Advection‐Pressure Splitting Schemes Applied to a Non‐Conservative 1D Blood Flow Model With Transport for Arteries and Veins

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, Volume 98, Issue 4, Page 398-432, April 2026.
We introduce new efficient and accurate first order finite volume‐type numerical schemes, for the non‐conservative one‐dimensional blood flow equations with transport, taking into account different velocity profiles. The framework is the flux‐vector splitting approach of Toro and Vázquez‐Cendón (2012), that splits the system in two subsystems of PDEs ...
