Phase‐Dependent Oxygen Defect Energetics in Epitaxial NbN/AlN/NbN Films

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Phase dependent oxygen defect energetics in epitaxial δ‐NbN/AlN/δ‐NbN and β‐Nb2N/AlN/β‐Nb2N trilayers. Atomic‐scale analysis and first‐principles calculations reveal distinct oxygen incorporation pathways across NbN polymorphs. Layer resolved defect formation energies show that O is energetically more favorable within δ‐NbN electrodes, whereas in β ...

Adaptive Collision Sensitivity for Efficient and Safe Human–Robot Collaboration

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
An adaptive collision‐sensitivity framework uses each robot link's effective mass to estimate contact forces online and decide when collaborative robots should stop or continue. Tested on simulated and real UR10e and simulated KUKA arms, it maintains conservative force estimates while reducing unnecessary stops and increasing task productivity. What is

Studies of Oxford Stone as a Contribution to Environmental Geomorphology

Journal of Environmental Geography, 2013
Much scientific research has been conducted on Oxford stone, of which the historical buildings of central Oxford, UK are comprised. This paper reviews all published literature to-date specifically for Oxford stone, compiling an inventory of studies.

High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.

Interactions between maternal provisioning and natural selection on seed mass fluctuate across heat waves

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Changing climates are leading to more frequent and severe heat waves, potentially threatening plant populations. Both acclimation to stress and selection for heat‐escape or heat‐resistance phenotypes occur during heat waves. However, plastic responses and selection do not necessarily interact cohesively—even producing trait responses ...

Measuring the Primary and Secondary Bioreceptivity of Stone and Their Implications for Heritage Conservation

Heritage
Bioreceptivity measures the ability of a surface to develop and maintain a permanent ecosystem of microorganisms. In the historic built environment, this is characterised visually by the greening of monuments and other outdoor heritage.
