Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.A high‐performance premixed monopropellant is prepared from hydrocarbon‐filled microcapsules and hydrogen peroxide. This propellant is burned in a strand burner, and the effect of different parameters on the burn rate is evaluated. ABSTRACT A dispersion of hydrocarbon‐fuel‐filled microcapsules in gelled hydrogen peroxide can form a premixed ...

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Mineral oil droplets spread anisotropically, penetrate banana leaf tissues, and diffuse into the palisade parenchyma, revealing a delayed, Fickian mechanism that supports improved phytosanitary spray strategies. Abstract BACKGROUND Efficient application of phytosanitary sprays is essential for sustainable control of foliar fungal diseases such as Black

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.We systematically summarize how each scale dictates fundamental choices in design feature, manufacturing technology, driving mechanism, and control strategy, which are inherently governed by scale‐dominated physical principles. Furthermore, the application of scale‐determined operation modes of microrobots across different stages of medical ...

What is social science if not critical?
The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.Abstract This short article represents a contribution to the debate on the motion “Social science is explanation, or it is nothing.” While in the format of parliamentary debating the contribution would fall on the side of the opposition, I will not be arguing against explanation as such.

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.Graphical summary of the experimental comparison of shear‐induced hemolysis in pediatric and adult blood using a Couette shearing device. Pediatric blood shows a trend toward lower increase in hemolysis at higher shear stress amplitudes, while no relevant differences are observed at low and intermediate stresses.

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Extracorporeal life support (ECLS) technology has witnessed remarkable advancements during the last decades. However, further research and development of devices are required to increase, for example, performance‐efficiency, hemocompatibility, and long‐term stability.
