Lab‐Scale Fabrication Process Selection for Soft Robotics: Benchmarking, Tradeoffs, and Guidelines for Formative Manufacturing of Soft Silicone Components

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Fabrication shapes soft robot performance, but benchmarking data and selection guidelines remain scarce. We fabricate silicone actuators using two molding techniques and three mold types, characterizing them with cycle testing, microscopy, profilometry, and 3D imaging. Applying our lab‐scale, soft robotics‐specific fabrication evaluation criteria shows

HeaTrace: A Parametric Design‐to‐Fabrication Workflow for Thermally Programmable Soft Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A programmable thermal actuation workflow enables soft robots to be designed and fabricated with embedded heaters that drive multiple responses. By combining performance‐driven heater design with multimaterial fabrication, the system supports thermally triggered shape change, stiffness tuning, and thermochromic visual response, as demonstrated through ...

Olfaction in the Spruce Bark Beetle, Ips typographus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The bark beetle Ips typographus regularly kills spruce trees in the Palearctic. Spruces are colonized by means of attraction to an aggregation pheromone. Attraction is modulated by anti-attractive volatiles (NHV) from non-host plants.

Cereal leaf beetle standardized survey methods

open access: yes, 2001
These standardized survey methods were designed by the Western Cereal Leaf Beetle Working Group (WCLBWG) in the spring of 2001. The WCLBWG serves as an informal scientific forum and regional partnership to foster the exchange information pertaining to ...

Activation of Metal Complexes With Ultrasound Waves for Targeted Anticancer Therapy

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Ultrasound enables non‐invasive activation of metal‐based therapeutics deep within tumors. Acoustic cavitation can drive sonodynamic reactive oxygen species generation or mechanochemical metal–ligand bond dissociation, enabling controlled release of bioactive payloads.

Anatomy and variation in the paraphyletic Mosasaurus lemonnieri assemblage from the Craie phosphatée de ciply, Belgium

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Nineteenth century excavations of the Ciply‐Malogne Phosphatic Chalk Formation in Hainaut, Belgium, yielded over 50 partial mosasaur skeletons, the majority of which were referred to the species Mosasaurus lemonnieri Dollo, 1889. In the years since, this taxon has experienced a complicated taxonomic history, and its exceptional hypodigm has ...

Masculinity, tourism and transgression: a qualitative study of British stag tourism in an Eastern European City [PDF]

open access: yes
This thesis explores the recent phenomenon of premarital stag party tours made to Eastern European cities by groups of British men. It is based on ethnographic field research in Krakow, Poland, conducted over the course of one year.

Assessment of intraspecific skull variation in the Campanian baenid turtle Plesiobaena antiqua

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Baenids are freshwater paracryptodiran turtles with a fossil record ranging from the Early Cretaceous to the Eocene. The baenid Plesiobaena antiqua is the most common turtle in the Campanian (Late Cretaceous) Dinosaur Park Formation in Canada, but the apparent intraspecific variation remains poorly understood.

Integration of Nutrition and Organic Agriculture Framework in Managing Gastrointestinal Nematodes in Ruminants

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Gastrointestinal nematode infections damage the gastrointestinal epithelial tissues of ruminants, affecting nutrient utilization and overall production performance. This review outlines host‐gastrointestinal nematode interactions and discusses integrated control strategies, including nutritional supplementation, grazing management, vaccines, and ...
