Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Parallel wiring of bioelectrochemical devices with conventional generators unexpectedly boosts output. A biophotovoltaic paired with a solar cell delivers up to 50% more power at low loads than their separate contributions; a plant microbial fuel cell shows similar current gains.

Aggregate stability of tropical soils in relation to their organic matter constituents and other soil properties [PDF]
, 2012 This study was carried out to determine the distribution of organic matter and its constituents, as well asother soil properties, in various aggregate size fractions for four soil types in Malaysia, and to investigate therelationship and relative ...

Energy in Clod-Size Reduction of Vibratory Tillage [PDF]
, 1969 The objective of mechanical manipulation of the soil (tillage) in production of agricultural crops is to produce soil conditions and environment favorable to crop growth by changing bulk density, soil-aggregate size distribution and other characteristics

Anti‐Slip Material‐Based Strategies and Approaches
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This review highlights the principle mechanisms of slipping at the microscale, linking contact mechanics with a friction behavior model for surface interfaces. Main strategies to develop anti‐slip properties to the surfaces are discussed alongside standardized testing approaches.

The influence of organic amendments on soil aggregate stability from semiarid sites [PDF]
, 2016 Restoring the native vegetation is the most effective way to regenerate soil health. Under these conditions, vegetation cover in areas having degraded soils may be better sustained if the soil is amended with an external source of organic matter.

FDI, terrorism and the availability heuristic for U.S. investors before and after 9/11 [PDF]
, 2013 We record the existence of an availability heuristic that is reflected in disaster myopia of U.S. investors and exists prior to the attacks of 9/11. We argue that this is fueled by an aggregate experience hypothesis effect, resulting in a pronounced ...

3D Printed Omniphobic Slippery Liquid Infused Porous Surfaces for Low Surface Tension Repellency
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A 3D printing strategy fabricates omniphobic slippery liquid‐infused porous structures with lubricant reservoirs and interconnected microchannels. A post‐printing surface treatment modifies the porous surface to ensure compatibility with the infused fluorinated lubricant.

International Soil and Water Conservation Research, 2017 One fifth of the world's population is living in mountains or in their surrounding areas. This anthropogenic pressure continues to grow with the increasing number of settlements, especially in areas connected to touristic activities, such as the Italian ...
