Revealing the selection history of adaptive loci using genome-wide scans for selection: an example from domestic sheep

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2018
Background One of the approaches to detect genetics variants affecting fitness traits is to identify their surrounding genomic signatures of past selection.

Symmetry‐Guided Multifunctional Acoustic System Based on Mechanically Actuated Sonic Crystals

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents the design, simulation, and experimental validation of amultifunctional acoustic metamaterial based on rotationally engineered sonic crystals.By tuning cylinder orientations, controllable band gaps and six distinct functionalities—including switching, topological insulation, beam splitting, and logic operations—areachieved ...

Intracellular responses to frequency modulated tones in the dorsal cortex of the mouse inferior colliculus

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013
Frequency modulations occur in many natural sounds, including vocalizations. The neuronal response to frequency modulated (FM) stimuli has been studied extensively in different brain areas, with an emphasis on the auditory cortex and the central nucleus ...

Modeling Dislocation Cutting of γ′ Precipitates in Ni‐Base Superalloys: Linking Atomistic and Dislocation Dynamics Simulations

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Dislocation cutting of γ′ precipitates in Ni‐based superalloys is investigated by linking atomistic simulations with discrete dislocation dynamics. The critical cutting stress is shown to be governed by the antiphase boundary energy, while line tension effects promote edge‐preferred cutting.

Continent-wide genomic signatures of adaptation to urbanisation in a songbird across Europe

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
The genetic architecture underlying rapid adaptive responses to novel environments are poorly understood. A study of great tits from nine European cities finds that urban adaptation in a widespread songbird occurred through unique and shared selective ...

Influence of Scan Strategies in Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion on Solidification, Microstructure, and High‐Temperature Compressive Properties of γ′‐Strengthened Inconel 738LC

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Experiments and thermophysical simulations were conducted to investigate the electron beam powder bed fusion electron beam (PBF‐EB/M) process for the γ′‐strengthened nickel‐based superalloy Inconel 738LC. The results demonstrate the impact of process‐induced microstructural variations on high‐temperature mechanical behavior, providing a basis for ...

Multiple mechanisms drive genomic adaptation to extreme O2 levels in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
The genomic details of adaptation to extreme environments remain challenging to characterize. Using new methods to analyze flies experimentally evolved to survive extreme O2 conditions, the authors find a surprising level of synchronicity in selective ...

Additive Manufacturing of Alumina‐Reinforced Elastomers

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Vat‐photopolymerized elastomers reinforced with platelet‐shaped alumina exhibited preferential orientation, reduced porosity, and significantly enhanced mechanical performance. A 3 wt% platelet loading increased tensile strength from 12.4 to 45.7 MPa, highlighting the critical role of filler morphology in elastomeric VPP composites.
