ABSTRACT A major transformation in China's energy mix is underway as the country pursues carbon neutrality by 2060, posing significant structural challenges for Australia as a major exporter of carbon‐intensive resources. This study examines the economic impacts of China's decarbonisation on Australia by applying static and dynamic input–output (IO ...

ABSTRACT ‘Middle Australia’ became a ubiquitous term of social categorisation and political positioning during the latter decades of the 20th century. This article examines how this concept was variously used in the metropolitan print media in the guises of the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age of Melbourne, including in their reporting of federal and ...

Abstract Clayey soils present challenges in engineering applications due to their inherent properties, such as low shear strength, which usually limits their use in engineering applications. Stabilization of clayey soils is crucial to enhance their performance and suitability for various purposes. Utilizing waste materials like discarded tyres and tile

The influence of micronized rubber powder on the proper-ties of deformable tile adhesives
The article examines the possibility of using micronized rubber powder from recycled used car tires in a deformable tiles adhesive. For this purpose, part of the sand was replaced with the tested material. The effect of modification on the key properties

Soft Skins With Reversible Thickness Morphing: Materials, Mechanisms, and Applications
Evolution of electronic skin (e‐skin) technologies toward adaptive, multifunctional soft skins. Phase I highlights early rigid and discrete sensory interfaces. Phase II shows the transition toward flexible, stretchable, and large‐area e‐skin. Phase III captures the emergence of computational e‐skin.

Tracing Flow Pathways of Nutrients in Dairy Farms—An End Member Mixing Analysis Approach
Farm drain water at both farms was consistently a mixture of event water (rainwater and irrigation water) and soil water, which represent surface runoff and shallow subsurface soil flow, respectively. The dominance of end members varied between farms and events and was controlled by surface roughness, microtopography, and antecedent soil moisture ...

Macroplastic and other types of macroscopic anthropogenic litter (AL; trash, particles > 5 mm) are pervasive across ecosystems, persistent in the environment, increasing in abundance, and can degrade into microplastics (particles < 5 mm). Rivers retain and transform AL prior to export downstream, but improved predictions of AL distribution and movement
