Behavior of Self-Tapping Screws Used in Hybrid Light Wood Frame Structures Connected to a CLT Core
Buildings, 2022 Light-frame wood structures are the most common type of construction for residential and low-rise buildings in North America. The 2015 edition of the National Building Code of Canada has increased the height limit for light-frame wood construction from 4

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

Time‐Delayed Spiking Reservoir Computing Enables Efficient Time Series Prediction
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study proposes time‐delayed spiking reservoir computing (TDSRC) for efficient time series prediction. By concatenating time‐lagged states, TDSRC constructs an expanded readout feature vector without altering internal reservoir dynamics. This approach enables highly accurate forecasting with significantly fewer neurons, providing a resource ...

Structural Pieces Rehabilitation with Self-Tapping Screws
International 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.

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.Abstract The acromioclavicular joint's intricate biomechanics and anatomy pose significant challenges in its repair. The “Acromioclavicular‐Distal Clavicle 3‐Dimensional All‐Suture Stabilization Technique” uses unicortical self‐punching all‐suture anchors, which reduce nerve damage risks.

British 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).
