Thin and Compact Versus Thick and Porous Fouling Layers in the Emulsion Polymerization of Acrylates and Vinyl Acetates Studied In Situ With a Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM)

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 21, June 5, 2026.
ABSTRACT Building on a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM‐D), fouling in emulsion polymerization was compared between acrylate dispersions stabilized with a mobile, anionic surfactant and dispersions of poly(vinyl acetate‐co‐vinyl neodecanoate), PVAc, stabilized with polyvinyl alcohol, PVOH.

Reengineering the Baldree Traffic Simulator for turfgrass wear and traffic research

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Historically, turfgrass researchers utilized the Baldree Traffic Simulator (BTS) to imitate foot traffic for the evaluation of athletic field wear tolerance and performance. Research was conducted to reengineer the BTS “feet” to improve adaptability and compatibility with other aerification units and determine biophysical effects on two native

Agronomic performance, nitrogen fixation, and amino acid profile of different common bean genotypes in Germany

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) are a highly nutritious legume crop with global significance. However, their cultivation is limited in temperate regions like Germany due to climatic and agronomic constraints. The cultivation of beans has gained attention due to their potential contribution to climate change mitigation by reducing nitrogen

Erosion of granular sediments by submerged impinging jets: Particle size effects and cohesion onset

open access: yesAIChE Journal, Volume 72, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the erosion behavior and modeling of glass particle beds under impinging jet conditions, with a focus on particle size effects and the onset of cohesion. Ultrasonic profiling is implemented to scan and measure static crater profiles.

The impacts of biological invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Evaluating Kentucky bluegrass and perennial ryegrass seeding ratios for sod grown on plastic production

open access: yesCrop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Sod grown on plastic (SOP) is a sod established on a thin layer of growing medium atop a plastic sheet. It can be harvested with minimal damage to the roots, thereby reducing transplant shock. Kentucky bluegrass (KBG; Poa pratensis L.) is a commonly used cool‐season turfgrass species in sod production and sports fields. However, KBG is slow to

Evaluation of Modeling Assumptions for Predicting Structural Damage and Train Derailment Under Earthquake Loading

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 7, Page 1514-1532, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The rapid development of new railway networks and the aging of existing infrastructure in seismic‐prone regions continue to motivate the need for efficient methods to simulate the dynamic behavior of coupled train track structure systems. While detailed train–structure interaction (TSI) models can capture complex mechanisms, they are often too

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.
