Effects of empennage surface location on aerodynamic characteristics of a twin-engine afterbody model with nonaxisymmetric nozzles [PDF]
An investigation has been conducted in the Langley 16-Foot Transonic Tunnel to determine the effects of empennage surface location and vertical tail cant angle on the aft-end aerodynamic characteristics of a twin-engine fighter-type configuration.

Digital twin for a real-time leakage detection and localization in pressurized piping systems
ABSTRACT Leakages in water supply networks can be minimized through pressure reduction or by repairing the resulting damage. The effective implementation of the latter approach necessitates the localization of leaks, for which various methods exist.

Bio‐templated Piezoresistive Yarn for High Sensitivity Movement Monitoring Textiles
This study developed a conductive coating by biotemplating silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) onto a Potato virus A (PV) particle network, cross‐linked on co‐polyamide‐starch (CoPA‐SS) coils. The combination of CoPA‐SS's shape memory and PV‐AgNP's piezoresistivity achieved high strain sensitivity and minimal hysteresis.

ABSTRACT Maghemite (γ$\gamma$‐Fe2${\rm Fe}_2$O3${\rm O}_{3}$) is a promising non‐precious‐metal‐containing photocatalyst for water oxidation (OER). Despite being less studied than Hematite, it offers similar corrosion resistance and a favorable band structure, along with higher conductivity and the advantage of an adaptable spinel structure.

ABSTRACT Blood‐based liquid biopsies hold transformative potential for non‐invasive cancer management, but current approaches relying on rare circulating tumor components limit their broad clinical utility. Platelets, abundant in blood and mediating diverse cancer‐associated responses, represent a compelling yet largely unexplored alternative.
