State‐of‐the‐Art, Insights, and Perspectives for MOFs‐Nanocomposites and MOF‐Derived (Nano)Materials
Different approaches to MOF‐NP composite formation, such as ship‐in‐a‐bottle, bottle‐around‐the‐ship and in situ one‐step synthesis, are used. Owing to synergistic effects, the advantageous features of the components of the composites are beneficially combined, and their individual drawbacks are mitigated.

Wave effects on the turning ability of an ultra large container ship in shallow water [PDF]
The influence of waves on ship behaviour can lead to hazardous scenarios which put at risk the ship, the crew and the surroundings. For this reason, investigating the effect of waves on manoeuvring is of relevant interest.

Ultra‐Fine 3D Bioprinting of Dynamic Hyaluronic Acid Hydrogel for in Vitro Modeling
3D bioprinting merges tissue engineering and additive manufacturing to create biological structures. A bioink is developed by modifying hyaluronic acid, a natural extracellular matrix polymer, with cysteine. Potassium iodide is later added to tune gelation kinetics, enabling fine printing with a 32G needle.

Decoding Directional Control in Metal‐Assisted Chemical Etching via Catalyst Architecture
Metal‐assisted chemical etching (MaCE) enables silicon nanostructure fabrication but suffers from isotropic undercutting. This study highlights the critical role of catalyst morphology in etching directionality. High‐aspect‐ratio catalysts induce lateral etching, while thermal treatment at 450 °C stabilizes catalyst geometry, promoting vertical etching.

X‐Ray and Electron Spectroscopy of the CdS/(Ag,Cu)(In,Ga)Se2 Interface With RbF Treatment
The chemical and electronic structure of the CdS/(Ag,Cu)(In,Ga)(S,Se)2 interface with RbF treatment is investigated using a combination of synchrotron‐ and laboratory‐based soft and hard X‐ray spectroscopies. A Rb–In–Se species is found at the absorber surface, with a band gap of 2.8 eV, in contrast to comparable Ag‐free Cu(In,Ga)Se2 absorbers with RbF‐

Design of Double‐Sided Optical Coatings for Space Cooling Through Vertical Windows
Dual‐sided radiative cooling glass (DSRCG) utilizes the optical properties of epsilon‐near‐zero materials and ITO to exhibit directional emission toward the outdoor space, facilitating the heat dissipation of the glass, while exhibiting low emission toward the enclosure.
