On the Origins of Out‐of‐Plane Auxetic Response in Paper
physica status solidi (b), EarlyView.Paper can be auxetic! Paper can exhibit a range of out‐of‐plane Poisson's ratio (PR) values. Examining handsheets made from hardwood (HW) and softwood (SW) fibers, of a variety of weights (1, 3, or 5 g) and refining degrees (none, R, or R+), showed that the sign and magnitude of PR can be finely controlled by modifying network parameters.

Incremental upper bound modeling of concrete failures in timber‐concrete notched connections
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This paper introduces a novel theoretical framework for developing incremental upper bound solutions, which is applied to predict the response of two local concrete failures in timber‐concrete composite (TCC) decks with notched connections. The new approach enables a prediction of the capacity at the onset of failure as well as the entire post‐

The Use of Dry Strength Additives to Improve Curling Resistance in a Sheet of Paper [PDF]
, 1978 The purpose of the following report was to look at the possibility of using dry strength resins to help reduce curling tendencies in a sheet of paper. The use of dry strength additives greatly increased the strength characteristics of a sheet of paper ...

Nature‐Positive Materials Engineering: Carbon Electrodes from Satoyama Biomass
The Chemical Record, EarlyView.Nature‐positive materials engineering can link satoyama forest stewardship with the design of carbon electrodes for batteries, supercapacitors, and electrocatalysis. By turning underused firewood and charcoal resources into functional carbons, this approach reduces mining footprints while supporting biodiversity, landscape resilience, and regional ...

A review of the configuration of bordered pits to stimulate the fluid flow
Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2014 As the bordered pits have generally been thought to have an influence on the refractory nature of softwoods, structural behaviour of this conducting pathways is discussed according to the published literature.

Flexural anisotropy of rift-sawn softwood boards induced by the end-grain orientation
Journal of Wood Science, 2021 Inspired by the use of rift-sawn softwood board for covering curved surfaces in Kokerabuki, a traditional Japanese roofing method, we investigated the flexural anisotropy of wood caused by its end-grain orientation.

Monitoring wildlife using long‐endurance solar‐electric UAVs
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.This report discusses the effectiveness of using small solar‐electric UAV (uncrewed aerial vehicles) for aerial wildlife monitoring. We review four years of aerial wildlife monitoring missions using a 5.5‐m wingspan, solar‐electric UAV that was equipped with a gimballed IR/RGB camera.
