'Microbial mortar'- restoration of degraded marble structures with microbially induced carbonate precipitation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
To evaluate a restoration strategy for highly degraded marble structures, microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) has been employed to reduce porosity and permeability in a column filled with coarse crushed marble.

Multimodal Layer‐Crossing Interrogation of Brain Circuits Enabled by Microfluidic Axialtrodes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The study introduces a flexible microfluidic axialtrode that integrates optical, electrical, and chemical modalities within a single polymer fiber. By redistributing electrodes and fluidic channels along the fiber axis via angled cleaving, it enables simultaneous optogenetic stimulation, electrophysiological recording, and drug delivery across brain ...

High temperature surface protection [PDF]

open access: yes
Alloys of the MCrAlX type are the basis for high temperature surface protection systems in gas turbines. M can be one or more of Ni, Co, or Fe and X denotes a reactive metal added to enhance oxide scale adherence.

Eco‐Efficient Processing and Refining Routes for Secondary Raw Materials from Silicon Ingot and Wafer Manufacturing

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
The ICARUS project developed pilot‐scale processes to recover and refine secondary raw materials from silicon photovoltaic (PV) ingot and wafer manufacturing waste. Silicon kerf, graphite, and silica residues are purified into high‐value inputs for the PV value chain and beyond.

Revising Fascial Anatomy With a Focus on the Fusion Fascia in Mesenteric Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgery

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This review critically reassesses our prior hypothesis and proposes a revised anatomical model of the fusion fascia that is broadly applicable to GI cancer surgeries grounded in the principles of mesenteric resection. Our synthesis suggests that the fusion fascia is neither a dense connective tissue membrane nor a remnant of mesothelial fusion, but ...

Phase‐Change Alloys Enable Localized Reversible Stiffening and Actuation in Steerable Eversion Tip‐Growing Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work presents a tip‐growing eversion robot that uses phase‐changing alloys for reversible stiffening and localized actuation, achieving 43× stiffness modulation, 15× force amplification, and segmental steering. The system enables precise navigation and force delivery in constrained, tortuous pathways.

Dual coating layers to enhance oxidation resistance for refractory high-entropy alloys

open access: yesResults in Materials
Refractory high-entropy alloys (RHEAs) possess excellent high-temperature mechanical properties, making them have the promising potential for applications at temperatures higher than Ni-base superalloys.

Development of Coatings for Tantalum Alloy Nozzle Vanes [PDF]

open access: yes
A group of silicide coatings developed for the T222 tantalum-base alloy have afforded over 600 hours of protection at 1600 and 2400 F during cyclic exposure in air. These coatings were applied in two steps.

Rangewide responses of Mimulus cardinalis to an extreme heat event

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Extreme events are an understudied aspect of ongoing anthropogenic climate change that could play a disproportionate role in the threat that rapid environmental shifts pose to natural populations. Methods We exposed plants originating from seeds that were harvested before (ancestors) and after (descendants) multiple extreme heat events
