Investigation on the failure evolution characteristics of surrounding rock in deep cross‐fault roadway: Based on physical model test and numerical simulation

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study reveals the failure evolution characteristics of deep cross‐fault roadway surrounding rock under excavation support and periodic weighting. Periodic weighting readily induces fault activation, with the spatial distribution of failed rock masses being controlled by the fault strike and dip.

Investigation on the mechanical behavior of the multiple‐layered lining structure of a water conveyance tunnel with high internal water pressure

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study presents large‐scale similarity model testing (geometric ratio 3.6) of an innovative multiple‐layered lining system—comprising exterior precast segments, middle self‐compacting concrete, and an interior steel pipe—for high‐pressure (0.75 MPa) water conveyance tunnels.

Comparative Analysis of Metal Preloading Technologies in Batteries and Capacitors

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
Metal preloading strategies play an important role in efficient batteries and hybrid capacitors to compensate for the consumed metals at the first discharge. This article reviews recent progress in preloading technologies in lithium‐ion and other metal‐ion systems.

Numerical Simulations of 5‐Story Building Using Wood Light‐Frame Shear Walls and Post‐Tensioned Cross‐Laminated Timber Rocking Wall Dual Systems

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores the seismic performance of a five‐story prototype building using different configurations of a dual lateral force‐resisting system (LFRS) combining post‐tensioned cross‐laminated timber rocking walls (PT‐CLT‐RW) with conventional wood light‐frame shear walls (LiFS).

Finalisation of the European Approach to Assess the Fire Performance of Facades—Brief Information on the Outcome of the Project

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research was conducted within the framework of project SI2.825082, funded by the European Commission—DG GROW. The project's objective was to finalise a European approach for assessing the fire performance of façades under medium and large fire exposure conditions.

Fire Spread Characteristics of Cavities in Modular Constructions and Ventilated Facades

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modular buildings have gained popularity as a sustainable building solution. However, the uncertainty of fire spread through vertical cavity spaces in such buildings has become a concern. Therefore, this study aims to fill the gap in fire behaviour within vertical cavity spaces.

Engineering an artificial trachea: Quantitative benchmarks and modular strategies for mechanics, epithelialization, and vascular integration

FlexMat, EarlyView.
In this work, we first examine the limitations of surgical repair and stenting, including migration, granulation, mucus plugging, and infection. We then translate these failures into engineering constraints involving geometry, mechanics, fixation, degradation, junctional stress, and remodeling.

Aerogel Fiber: A One‐Dimensional Programmable Porous Matter for Next Thermal Management Materials

Interdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.
Aerogel fibers are redefined as one‐dimensional programmable porous matter, where thermal transport is governed by multiscale pathway engineering. By reconstructing and decoupling transport pathways from molecular to textile scales, these systems integrate insulation, radiative cooling, and adaptive thermal regulation.
