Hot Air Engines

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2011
Invented in 1816, the hot-air engines have known significant commercial success in the nineteenth century, before falling into disuse. Nowadays they enjoy a renewed interest for some specific applications. The "hot-air engines" family is made up of two

An Eco‐Social Lens on Voice for Undervoiced and Unvoiced Stakeholders

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 4624-4637, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This conceptual paper argues it is important from an ecological–social (eco‐social) whole system point of view for businesses and policymakers to take the interests of and impacts on unvoiced and undervoiced [un(der)voiced] stakeholders into consideration for both strategic and justice reasons.

Drone‐imaging assisted genome‐wide association studies reveal key quantitative trait loci for emergence and late blight resistance in tetraploid potato

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Solanum tuberosum L. (potato) is the world's most important vegetable crop, and developing improved cultivars is paramount for global food security. The efficacy of the genomic prediction models that accelerate breeding and genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) depends on large, high‐quality phenotypic datasets, which are often associated ...

Soil Microbial Functions Indicate Persistent Agricultural Legacies and Potential Alternative States Following Restoration Plantings

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Soil microbial functions are key indicators of ecosystem recovery but can be obscured by taxonomic redundancy. Using shotgun metagenomics, we show that while overall functional diversity remains stable across land conditions, functional composition shifts persist in restored soils, particularly in relation to phosphorus metabolism.
