No Place to Hide? Regional Resilience and Vulnerability to Global Catastrophic Risk
Global Challenges, Volume 10, Issue 8, August 2026.No location on Earth withstands every global catastrophe. This review maps the geographic, institutional and infrastructural factors shaping resilience to nuclear, volcanic and impact winters, infrastructure loss and pandemics. Geographic isolation, food self‐sufficiency, strong governance and decentralization improve resilience across scenarios ...

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 64, Issue 15, Page 3289-3309, 1 August 2026.Hydrolytic aging in seawater produces markedly different mechanical responses among commercial Aramid fibers. While some fibers exhibit progressive degradation, others maintain stable or even improved tensile behavior. Experimental yarn‐scale testing combined with mathematical degradation modeling and Arrhenius‐based lifetime prediction provides new ...
