High‐Strength, Fluorescent, Triboelectric Cellulose Hydrogel‐Derived Plastics Through Molecular Network Engineering for Energy Harvesting and Motion Sensing

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Multifunctional cellulose hydrogel‐derived plastics (FCBPs) are fabricated via a novel molecular network engineering strategy involving epoxy cross‐linking, solvent exchange, and hot‐pressing techniques. The resulting materials exhibit high mechanical strength, excellent thermal/solvent resistance, stable fluorescence, complete biodegradability, and ...

Risk assessment using IEUBK model for the Naica mine tailings

open access: yesEnvironmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract Mexico has a long history of mineral extraction, during which limited environmental regulations allowed the accumulation of toxic waste near communities, primarily in rural or undeveloped areas. Some of these toxic substances, such as lead, pose significant risks to vulnerable populations, particularly children aged 0 to 7 years.

Climate Driven Water Table Changes and Their Influence on Liquefaction Response of Integral Bridges

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Integral abutment bridges (IABs) eliminate bearings and joints but transfer seismic demand directly into the surrounding soil, making their response highly sensitive to groundwater conditions and soil–structure interaction. This study presents a 60 g centrifuge testing programme on single‐span IABs designed to isolate the influence of water ...
