Personalised Perception: The Effect of Personality on the Sensory Effects of Psychedelics
Drug and Alcohol Review, Volume 45, Issue 5, July 2026.ABSTRACT Introduction Psychedelics induce a wide range of sensory distortions and hallucinations (henceforth ‘distortions’). Yet, little is known about factors that influence the occurrence of certain distortions. Extra‐pharmacological variables including personality traits have been found to correlate with the occurrence of different subjective ...

Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 3, Page 985-1001, July 2026.High colour variability in animals has been associated with adaptability to environmental change. Establishing how such variability is distributed in time and space, and identifying environmental correlates, can help understand the processes driving it.

Drought Stress Promotes Aphis gossypii Growth but Decreases Host Attractiveness in Melon
Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 6, Page 770-779, July 2026.ABSTRACT Drought stress is a significant environmental factor that affects plant physiology and growth, leading to considerable detrimental effects on crop productivity. Cucumis melo, which is widely cultivated for its economic value, is particularly susceptible to water scarcity.

Development of Vertical Wind Turbine Blades Using 4D Printing of Composites
Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 12, Page 10966-10975, 20 June 2026.Vertical axis wind turbine: White blade: Commercial. Black blade: Composite. ABSTRACT This paper presents the procedure to make vertical wind turbine blades using the technique of 4D printing of composites (4DPC). The blades are made using carbon/epoxy composite materials with a fiber volume fraction of about 60%.

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 11, 3 June 2026.Stabilization of L‐PBF Ni50.7Ti49.3 under low‐cycle loading was investigated. Recoverable strain after cycling was dependent on the amount of applied load. Recovery ratio was 53.4% and 35.1% at intermediate and high load, respectively. The maximum total strain reached 10.3% at a high load of 1200 MPa.
