Insights Into the Mechanisms Controlling the Residual Strength of Bio‐cemented Sands

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) is an emerging technique for enhancing the mechanical properties of granular soils. Although several experimental studies have reported increased shear strength in MICP‐treated soils at both peak and residual states, other findings have shown reductions in residual strength compared to ...

Bioclimatic, demographic and anthropogenic correlates of grizzly bear activity patterns in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Plasticity of diel activity rhythms may be a key element for adaptations of wildlife populations to changing environmental conditions. In the last decades, grizzly bears Ursus arctos in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) have experienced notable environmental fluctuations, including changes in availability of food sources and severe droughts ...

Investigating conservation performance payments alongside human–wildlife conflicts: The Swedish lynx and wolverine protection policies

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Conservation performance payments are becoming an increasingly popular instrument to tackle human–wildlife conflicts. In Sweden, Sámi communities practicing reindeer husbandry receive performance payments as compensation for reindeer losses caused by lynxes and wolverines.

Prediction of Cure‐Induced Wrinkles Aimed at the Manufacturing of Large Wind Turbine Blades

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
The step‐wise progression of the development of cure‐induced wrinkles. Before curing, at room temperature the laminate is resting at the mould face. In the next step, the wrinkle is developing due to thermal gradients. At the end of curing, the composite has cooled down and the undulation is left in, byt the increase in resin stiffness across the ...

Development of Vertical Wind Turbine Blades Using 4D Printing of Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Vertical axis wind turbine: White blade: Commercial. Black blade: Composite. ABSTRACT This paper presents the procedure to make vertical wind turbine blades using the technique of 4D printing of composites (4DPC). The blades are made using carbon/epoxy composite materials with a fiber volume fraction of about 60%.

Integrating tunable LED‐induced plant responses with novel solar cell technologies for energy‐efficient agrivoltaic systems

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The increasing demand for sustainable food production requires innovative solutions that balance productivity, resource efficiency, and environmental impact. Vertical Farming Systems (VFSs) offer a promising approach; however, their high energy consumption remains challenging.
