Compact Tubular Dielectric Elastomer Pump for Indoor Plants

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 25, July 5, 2026.
This study develops a mountable rolled dielectric elastomer pump (MRDEP) using silicone films and MWCNT‐based electrodes. The MRDEP is completely soft, silent in operation, and easily mounted on a piping system. We use dry stacking methods, fabricate a multilayer dielectric elastomer actuator (DEA), and a pre‐straining process in one direction before ...

Neurodevelopmental Consequences Induced by Early‐Life Lead Exposure Through Disruption of Neurotransmitter Pathways and Molecular Mechanisms: A Systematic Review

open access: yesDevelopmental Neurobiology, Volume 86, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Lead is a toxic heavy metal with significant health risks, as maternal lead exposure during pregnancy disrupts fetal neural development through placental transfer, leading to persistent neurological, developmental, and long‐term health consequences in the progeny.

Earthquake and Tsunami NaTech Risk Assessment for Oil Storage Facilities

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 9, Page 1887-1904, 25 July 2026.
ABSTRACT Interaction of natural and technological hazards (NaTech) events, such as tsunamis and earthquakes, can affect industrial facilities such as those featuring anchored atmospheric storage tanks. Consequences of natural events on this kind of installation may include the release of hazardous substances, which in turn can lead to industrial ...

Effect of Fruit Maturation Stage on the Chemical Composition and Antioxidant and Cytotoxic Activities of Piper nigrum Essential Oil

open access: yesFlavour and Fragrance Journal, Volume 41, Issue 4, Page 908-922, July 2026.
The essential oils of Piper nigrum show marked chemical and biological variation across fruit maturation stages. Ripe fruits yield oils with the strongest antioxidant and cytotoxic activities, demonstrating that maturation directly modulates volatile composition and enhances the bioactive potential of this aromatic species.
