Aeolian and Biogeochemical Transformations of Detrital Gold Morphology in the Pool Burn Basin, Central Otago, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
The Pool Burn basin is a tectonic depression that became almost isolated from the regional drainage system by river reorientation during Pleistocene uplift of surrounding ridges. Consequently, detrital gold in the basin was largely locally derived, from supergene zones on orogenic deposits and recycled from paleoplacers in erosional remnants of Miocene

Cable compliance [PDF]

open access: yes
The object of the investigation was to solve mechanical problems using cable-in-bending and cable-in-torsion. These problems included robotic contacts, targets, and controls using cable compliance. Studies continued in the use of cable compliance for the

Readily Programmable, Body Temperature‐Responsive Liquid Crystal Elastomers With Dynamic Covalent Thiourea Bonds

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, Volume 47, Issue 5, 6 March 2026.
We present body temperature‐responsive exchangeable liquid crystal elastomers (xLCEs) incorporating dynamic covalent thiourea bonds. The actuation temperature is tuned by adjusting the comonomer composition to weaken intermolecular mesogen interactions, enabling responsiveness near body temperature (∼36°C).

Carbon Nanotubes Multi‐Functional Approach in Self‐Healable Composites: A Review

open access: yesNano Select, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Among many of the allotropes of carbon, the nanomaterial “Carbon Nanotubes” (CNTs), has shown significant potential due to its remarkable properties. The self‐healing phenomenon, which focuses on structural integrity, is attracting researchers to explore the capabilities of nanocomposites, aiming to increase service life, enhance durability ...

Noninvasive 11.7‐T Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy and Imaging Reveals Retinal Metabolic Alterations Induced by Blue Light Exposure

open access: yesNMR in Biomedicine, Volume 39, Issue 3, March 2026.
Retinal metabolic changes were analyzed using proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H‐MRS), marking an initial application of this non‐invasive method on living eyes. Key metabolites were identified within the retinal region of adult rats. The observed changes following intense blue light exposure were predominantly attributable to the retina, as it

Recyclability of Polystyrene Bead Foams: Degradation Behavior over 10 Extrusion Cycles

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, Volume 66, Issue 3, Page 1711-1722, March 2026.
This study investigates the multi‐cycle recycling of expanded polystyrene bead foam blended with virgin material. Material degradation is monitored by MFI, GPC, and mechanical testing. The results demonstrate that long‐term recyclability is feasible without progressive property loss, and that secondary high‐shear steps such as extrusion and pelletizing

Multifaceted Behavior and Functional Versatility of Ferritic Stainless Steels, Part I: Applications and Processing, a Review

open access: yessteel research international, Volume 97, Issue 3, Page 1201-1225, March 2026.
This review investigates the processing‐microstructure‐property relationships in ferritic stainless steels (FSSs). It highlights advances in deformation behavior, heat treatments, surface modifications, and alloying effects. Theoretical models, including Johnson‐Mehl‐Avrami‐Kolmogorov, Arrhenius, nucleation theory, and diffusion theories, are discussed

Minimization of Porosity in E11018‐G Low‐Alloyed Steel Processed by Laser Powder Directed Energy Deposition

open access: yessteel research international, Volume 97, Issue 3, Page 1369-1383, March 2026.
The processability of the E11018‐G by laser powder directed energy deposition (LP‐DED) is investigated. The effects of powder moisture, ambient humidity, and laser remelting on LP‐DED parts’ porosity are shown. A strong influence of the atomizing gas is observed.
