Polymer Composites, EarlyView.Schematic illustration of the experimental procedure of the specimens. ABSTRACT This research work investigated the effect of the cyclic thermo‐hygrometric aging regime between −20°C and +40°C with 0–400 cycles on the reciprocating tribological properties of fused deposition modeling (FDM) printed polylactic acid (PLA) and the same material reinforced ...

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.Thermal Aging and Tribological Tests of Additive Manufactured PLA Composites. ABSTRACT This study focuses on the additive manufacturing of pure polylactic acid (PLA) specimens and milled glass fiber (GF)‐filled PLA composites under thermal cycling aging and wear tests. Wear tracks have been analyzed via 3D optical profiling and SEM imaging.

Erosion Resistance Enhancement in Epoxy Composites by Recycled Rubber: Effect of Rubber Type
Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.Erosion resistance enhancement in epoxy composites by recycled rubber. ABSTRACT Epoxy‐based materials have low erosion resistance due to their brittle nature, and toughness modification stands out for enhancing it. At this stage, the use of waste rubber as a reinforcement component in the composite system is of interest due to its role in providing ...

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Tropical forests are rapidly declining. One promising strategy to reverse the loss of tropical forest is the establishment of agroforestry on open land. We combined interviews with biodiversity surveys to learn general lessons from success and nonsuccess stories of the establishment of open‐land‐derived coffee agroforests in one of the world's ...

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Carabid and staphylinid communities are shaped by adjacent habitat type, prey availability and landscape context, influencing natural pest control across agricultural landscapes. Abstract BACKGROUND The functioning of agroecosystems depends on key ecosystem processes that deliver ecosystem services, yet agricultural management has increasingly shifted ...

The functional role of ants in no‐till cropping systems
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Ants provide valuable ecosystem services in tropical agriculture, but their roles in temperate row crops remain poorly understood. Conservation practices such as no‐till farming and cover cropping support ant communities that contribute to pest suppression, weed seed removal, and soil quality, which can increase crop productivity.
