Recent Advances in Carbon Materials for Cathodes and Interlayers in Lithium–Sulfur Batteries
Small Structures, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.This review examines dimensional carbon materials (0D–3D) as hosts and interlayers for Li–S batteries. It details how structural morphology, heteroatom doping, and catalytic functionalization effectively mitigate the polysulfide shuttle effect, manage volume expansion, and accelerate redox kinetics.

IET Image Processing, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.Existing methods often struggle to balance accuracy and robustness against complex interference such as noise and artefacts inherent in industrial CT imaging. To overcome these limitations, we propose an innovative framework named MultiBlock‐SwinUnet. This architecture is designed to enhance feature extraction for different categories of concrete and ...

Life-cycle low-carbon design and assessment of UHPC beams integrating flexural capacity requirements
Low-Carbon Materials and Green ConstructionThe excellent mechanical properties of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) will reduce the cross-sectional size of UHPC beams, resulting in a decrease in the amount of UHPC and the carbon emission.

Plastid establishment did not require a chlamydial partner [PDF]
, 2015 Primary plastids descend from the cyanobacterial endosymbiont of an ancient eukaryotic host, but the initial selective drivers that stabilized the association between these two cells are still unclear.

Tensile Performance of Prefabricated Tank Walls Connected Using Ultrahigh‐Performance Concrete
Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Prefabricated tank structures are a widely used form of industrialized construction, yet the behavior of connections between precast segments remains insufficiently explored. Since the mechanical properties of these connections govern the structural performance of prefabricated tanks, this study introduces a novel joint detail employing cast‐in‐place ...
