Aerodynamic Characteristics of Bridge Stay Cables Modified by Illumination Attachments: Large-Eddy Simulation and Wind Tunnel Validation

Buildings
Stay cables are slender and lightly damped structural members that are highly sensitive to wind action. Although the aerodynamic effects of rain rivulets, ice accretion, snow accretion, and surface roughness on bridge cables have been widely investigated,

Effectiveness of Periodic Repolishing on the Surface and Mechanical Properties of Resin‐Based CAD/CAM Materials After Different Cycles of Combined Simulated Toothbrushing and Mechanical Cycling

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of periodic repolishing on the surface and mechanical properties of resin‐based CAD/CAM materials subjected to combined mechanical cycling and simulated toothbrushing, with or without periodic repolishing.

Machine Learning Approaches for Simulating Temporal Changes in Bed Profiles Around Cylindrical Bridge Pier: A Comparative Analysis

Hydrology
Submerged vanes offer a promising solution for reducing scour depth around hydraulic structures such as bridge piers by modifying near-bed flow patterns. However, temporal changes in bed profiles around a cylindrical pier remain insufficiently quantified.

Rethinking microtidal systems: Tidal signatures in the fluvial deposits of the Po River, Italy

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In microtidally influenced rivers, tides are generally assumed to leave virtually no signatures in the sedimentary record. However, this hypothesis has been surprisingly poorly tested using modern river analogues, which provide an opportunity to assess whether sedimentary signatures of microtidal regimes can develop in rivers that lack ...

Silicone Breast Implants as a Model System for Understanding Polymer Permeation in Soft Materials In Vivo

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 37, 9 October 2026.
Silicone breast implants are presented as a model system for understanding polymer permeation in vivo. Rather than representing material failure, “gel bleed” emerges from solution–diffusion transport‐mediated. By integrating polymer architecture, physicochemical transport, and biointerfacial processes, this review provides a unified framework that ...

Polymeric Sorbents as Energy‐Efficient Alternative to Cryogenic Distillation for Light Hydrocarbon Purification

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 57, 13 October 2026.
The transition from cryogenic distillation to polymeric sorbents for light hydrocarbon purification is crucial for energy and environmental sustainability. The polymeric sorbents are engineered to separate gas mixtures based on their specific properties.

A Phosphorylation‐Induced Micellization Switch in the Low‐Complexity Domain of TDP‐43

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 56, 9 October 2026.
Phosphorylation of TAR DNA‐binding protein's 43 kDa (TDP‐43) low‐complexity domain by casein kinase 1 delta (CK1δ) acts as a molecular switch, redirecting its self‐assembly from macroscopic phase separation toward finite‐sized, spherical block‐copolymer micelles of ∼30 nm.

Almond Shell‐Derived Cellulosic Microfibres: Extraction, Characterisation and Applications in Sustainable Paper‐Based Packaging

Packaging Technology and Science, Volume 39, Issue 10, Page 1231-1251, October 2026.
Cellulosic microfibres were extracted from almond shells using organosolv, soda and kraft processes, and comprehensive physicochemical, surface, thermal and morphological characterisation demonstrated their strong potential as sustainable fillers for paper‐based packaging application. ABSTRACT This study develops pathways for the valorisation of almond
