Clade‐wide morphological and functional variation of the sauropsid columella
Abstract The columella (=stapes) is the middle ear bone of reptiles that transmits vibrations from the environment to the inner ear. It has been shown to exhibit extensive interspecific morphological disparity in several clades; however, its morphological variation and associated functional consequences remain poorly described.

Instability Characteristics of and Control Techniques for Mudstone–Clay Composite Roof Roadways
In China’s northwest mining areas, shallow buried coal seams commonly feature double soft composite roof structures of mudstone and clay, resulting in poor roadway stabilization and proving challenging for effective roadway-surrounding rock (RSR) control.

Full-flow cyclic degradation and micro-structure of representative deep-sea soft clay
The geotechnical properties of deep-sea soft clay are quite different from those of terrestrial or offshore clay. For the representative deep-sea soft clay collected from the western region of South China Sea, an improved full-flow penetration device is ...

ABSTRACT High‐resolution and accurate synoptic images of terrestrial topography, even in densely forested areas, have proven valuable for archaeology by enabling the identification and characterization of relief patterns associated with ancient human activities. This study presents a novel approach that integrates digital terrain models (DTMs) obtained

Ensemble‐based soil liquefaction assessment: Leveraging CPT data for enhanced predictions
Abstract This study focuses on predicting soil liquefaction, a critical phenomenon that can significantly impact the stability and safety of structures during seismic events. Accurate liquefaction assessment is vital for geotechnical engineering, as it informs the design and mitigation strategies needed to safeguard infrastructure and reduce the risk ...

Abstract Global energy demand and environmental concerns have intensified the search for renewable and sustainable energy sources. This study thus, focuses on optimizing the transesterification process of waste cooking oil (WCO) using thermally activated basic oxygen furnace slag catalyst calcined at 850°C (BOF 850). The optimization and modelling were

How Amino Acids Intercalate in CaFe Layered Double Hydroxides: A Combined RIXS and NEXAFS Study
Intercalation of amino acids in layered double hydroxides offers a road to functional (bio)catalysts. With resonant soft x‐ray spectroscopy we probe the electronic structure of these systems and observe activation and passivation of electronic states as well as bond formation between the amino acid and the LDH upon intercalation.
