Are Self-Drilling, Self-Tapping Screws Effective in Anterior Cervical Fusion Surgery? One Surgeon’s Experience with 50 Consecutive Patients

open access: yesJournal of Spine Practice
Purpose Even though plate and screw designs in anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) have evolved to improve fusion stability and enhance patient outcomes, some argue that pre-tapping remained the best option. The purpose of this study is to

A Timber–Concrete–Composite Edge Connection for Two-Way Spanning Cross-Laminated Timber Slabs—Experimental Investigations and Analytical Approach

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
This paper introduces a method to create a moment-resisting edge connection between two cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels. With this connection, two-way spanning cross-laminated timber slabs can be realised, where the span exceeds the manufacturing and

FastCat: Autonomous Discovery of Multielement Layered Double Hydroxide Alloy Catalysts for Alkaline Oxygen Evolution Reaction

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
A machine learning‐guided self‐driving laboratory screened over 500 nickel‐based layered double‐hydroxide catalysts for alkaline oxygen evolution. Out of the eight metals, the robot uncovered a quaternary Ni–Fe–Cr–Co catalysts requiring only 231 mV overpotential to reach 20 mA cm−2.

Contemporary and Novel Hold-Down Solutions for Mass Timber Shear Walls

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
‘Mass timber’ engineered wood products in general, and cross-laminated timber in particular, are gaining popularity in residential, non-residential, as well as mid- and high-rise structural applications. These applications include lateral force-resisting

Pre‐Curved Everting Robots With Embedded Steering Intelligence Fabricated by CO2 Laser Welding

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Design and experimental demonstration of a laser welded growing robot for anatomically guided navigation. The robot follows an aortic arch phantom entering the branchiocephalic branch through steering by design. The figure shows the physical phantom setup, CAD defined weld geometry and full robot eversion.

What is a curriculum for life? Using youth participatory action research and applied arts to understand and amplify undergraduate students', children's and young people's mental health and wellbeing recommendations for education

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Mental health is a critical issue globally, with young people being one of the most affected groups. Young people have campaigned vehemently for a ‘curriculum for life,’ arguing that their education is failing to meet their needs (British Council, 2022).

Structural Pieces Rehabilitation with Self-Tapping Screws

open access: yesInternational Journal of Materials Engineering, 2017
Timber is one of the oldest raw materials in construction, due to their availability worldwide, and the ease of using it. The majority of buildings in Brazil, until the Industrial Revolution, utilized this material as main input, rooting most of our cultural heritage in it.

A Perspective on Five‐Generation High‐Energy‐Density LiFePO4 Cathodes and Beyond: From Materials to Manufacturing

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
This perspective examines the evolution toward fifth‐generation LiFePO4. Practical volumetric energy density depends on preserving ionic transport, electronic connectivity, mechanical integrity, and active‐material utilization across powder design and manufacturing.

Seismic Performance and Vibration‐Based Damage Identification of Two‐Storey Balloon‐Framed CLT Shear Walls

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While cross‐laminated timber (CLT) is increasingly utilized in lateral force‐resisting systems in mass timber construction, research has predominantly focused on platform‐type construction. Balloon‐type CLT shear wall systems offer distinct structural advantages, notably the elimination of cumulative perpendicular‐to‐grain compression and a ...
