Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A polymerizable deep eutectic solvent is reinforced with tannic acid‐modified cellulose nanofibers to construct a hierarchical dynamic eutectogel network. Synergistic covalent and reversible interactions impart ultrahigh stretchability, high ionic conductivity, broad temperature tolerance, self‐healing, and strong adhesion, enabling robust wearable ...

Prior storm experience moderates water surge perception and risk. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 BACKGROUND: How accurately do people perceive extreme water speeds and how does their perception affect perceived risk? Prior research has focused on the characteristics of moving water that can reduce human stability or balance.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.We present a scalable EC/TC hybrid smart window using a DCPE that enables tunable solar modulation (ΔTsol:15–43%), fast electrochromic switching (<90 s), and strong thermal blocking (10–14°C reduction). HPMC improves thermal stability, while an optimized ISL enhances EC performance.

Encoded Cell‐Material Interactions to Reroute Cytokine Signaling for Regenerative Medicine
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.We present native MATRIX (Material Activated To Regulate Inducible gene eXpression), a co‐engineered material‐cell platform. Surfaces functionalized with antibodies for endogenous soluble ligands (e.g., IL‐1β or IL‐6) capture and immobilize ligands for presentation to a cognate, engineered synthetic Notch receptor, releasing a transcription factor (TF)

Typhoon-induced megarips as triggers of turbidity currents offshore tropical river deltas
Communications Earth & Environment, 2020 Intense rip currents caused by tropical cyclones can drive sediment-laden turbidity flows down submarine canyons, according to numerical simulations. Shoreline shape, bathymetry and incoming wave direction are key factors controlling this phenomenon.

Rip Current Spacing as an Eigenvalue
Coastal Engineering 1978, 1978 Mass, momentum and wave action conservation laws, including the radiation stress, are used to obtain a rip current spacing as an eigenvalue. A coastal region is divided into two parts: offshore region and surf zone separated by a breaker line. Only the case of normal incidence of the waves is considered.
