Measurement of distribution of rock joint stiffness based on active ultrasonic excitation
Yantu gongcheng xuebaoGoodman proposed to use the joint stiffness to characterize the topological behaviors of complex rock joint interfaces and provide quantitative values for them, without measuring and analyzing the geometric parameters such as roughness and contact area ...

Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Africa's cultural and colonial heritage has profoundly segmented rice markets. Whereas in ancient centers of rice domestication, consumers maintained preferences for local rice consistent with their cultural heritage, preferences have shifted toward imported Asian rice in coastal areas around seaports, due to prior exposure to colonial import ...

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.We demonstrate the direct‐laser patterning of a gold thin film on polymethyl methacrylate to fabricate a temperature sensor for dentures. The temperature sensor‐embedded smart dentures are evaluated in an oral environment, enabling in‐situ monitoring for elderly healthcare.
