Comorbidities only account for a small proportion of excess mortality after fracture: A record linkage study of individual fracture types [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Non-hip non-vertebral fractures (NHNV) constitute the majority of osteoporotic fractures but few studies have examined the association between these fractures, co-morbidity and mortality.

Anisotropic Shear Properties of Organic Interfaces in Bio‐composite Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A novel cantilever design enables direct probing of shear properties at single organic interfaces within biocomposite prismatic ultrastructures. By decoupling lateral and torsional shear responses, the method reveals isotropic behavior in Atrina vexillum and pronounced anisotropy in Unio pictorum.

Complications of Volar Plating of Distal Radius Fractures: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of wrist surgery, 2018
Background In recent years, there has been an increased utilization of volar locking plate fixation of distal radius fractures (DRFs). However, reported long-term complication rates with this technique remain unclear.

Functional Materials for Environmental Energy Harvesting in Smart Agriculture via Triboelectric Nanogenerators

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores functional and responsive materials for triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) in sustainable smart agriculture. It examines how particulate contamination and dirt affect charge transfer and efficiency. Environmental challenges and strategies to enhance durability and responsiveness are outlined, including active functional layers ...

Pore-scale characterization and modelling of CO2 flow in tight sandstones using X-ray micro-CT; Knorringfjellet formation of the Longyearbyen CO2 lab, Svalbard [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Rocks of the Knorringfjellet Formation in Central Spitsbergen form a potential storage reservoir for CO2 below Longyearbyen. They are characterised by a moderate porosity and low permeability.

Pre and post operative radiological assessment of distal radius fracture [PDF]

open access: yesAl Ameen Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Distal radius fractures are the most common fractures of upper limb. It accounts nearly 15- 20% of all fractures. Many surgical modalities are available for treatment of the same.

PyFrac: A planar 3D hydraulic fracture simulator

open access: yes, 2020
Fluid driven fractures propagate in the upper earth crust either naturally or in response to engineered fluid injections. The quantitative prediction of their evolution is critical in order to better understand their dynamics as well as to optimize their

Ultrahigh Strength with Suppressed Flow Instability at Liquid Helium Temperature via Coherent Nanoprecipitation in a Medium‐Entropy Alloy

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
It is demonstrated that severe lattice distortion and coherent nanoprecipitates overcome the strength–ductility dilemma and mitigate discontinuous plastic flow (DPF) at 4.2 K. Such microstructural design enhances both thermal and athermal stress components, leading to exceptional mechanical performance.
