Tailoring Electronic Properties of Precision Graphene Nanoribbons via Nanopore Engineering

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 14, 27 March 2026.
Novel porous graphene nanoribbons incorporating [18]annulene nanopores, together with a nonporous GNR of identical width, have been synthesized. Spectroscopic and theoretical analyses reveal that nanopore incorporation effectively tunes their electronic properties by enlarging the bandgap, reducing charge‐carrier mobility, and modulating exciton ...

Biomechanics and Evolution of the Primate Tongue

Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 35, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Primate tongue morphology and function are critical to understanding the evolution of feeding, swallowing, and vocalization. In this paper, we examine the primate tongue as a muscular hydrostat with regionally specialized neuromuscular compartments. We integrate anatomical, kinematic, and biomechanical modeling approaches to analyze how muscle

Case Studies of the Centre of Pressure Between Hand and Ball in Off-spin Bowling, Analysed with a Smart Cricket Ball

Procedia Engineering, 2016
In off-spin bowling (finger-spin delivery with a sidespin, right-handed bowler), the ball rolls over the middle finger and rotates counterclockwise, as seen by the batsman. It is therefore expected that the torque imparted onto the ball is generated by the middle finger and the centre of pressure (COP) is also located close to the middle finger.

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...
