An anisotropic model of unbound granular material under repeated loading
The base and subbase layers of a pavement are compacted to the desired density by rollers. This cause the anisotropy in other words the layer more stiffer in the vertical direction than the horizontal direction. In the study inherent and stress induced anisotropy were measured by using the repeated load triaxial test equipment which is able to cycle ...

Innovation and the great divergence
Abstract Recent historical national accounting data show that the timing of the Great Divergence hinges on the different trends in north‐west Europe and the Yangzi Delta region of China. Although north‐west Europe only pulled ahead of the Yangzi Delta after 1700, both the positive trend of GDP per capita in north‐west Europe after 1700 and the negative

Dental resin composites generate microparticles and impact on gingival keratinocytes—In vitro study
Abstract Along with our increased understanding of the spread of microplastic pollution, the awareness of microparticle release from medical and dental materials has increased. Still, their effects on human health are largely unknown. As the use of resin composite materials in dentistry continues to increase, it is essential to understand the formation

A process‐temporal perspective on organizational paradoxes: A review and future research agenda
Abstract Scholars are increasingly studying paradox processes, yet insights remain disconnected, with limited discussion across studies’ perspectives. Consequently, research risks underutilizing valuable findings, thereby reducing both theoretical and practical progress.

Abstract Purpose To assess the impact of anodization and instrumentation on titanium abutment surface characteristics (surface roughness and wettability) and biofilm formation (viability and mass). Materials and Methods Titanium discs were obtained from pre‐milled abutment blanks made of titanium‐6aluminum‐7niobium alloy.

Platelet‐Rich Fibrins as Local Drug‐Delivery Carriers
Autologous platelet concentrates (APCs), particularly platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF), act as biologically active fibrin scaffolds, capable of entrapping and gradually releasing therapeutic agents in oral and periodontal therapy. The incorporation of bioactive compounds, such as antibiotics, antifungals, vitamins, antidiabetic drugs, and exosomes, enhances ...

Regulating critical technologies: National security and intellectual property
Abstract In recent years, claims of ‘national security’ have surged internationally to protect various security interests including public health, economic security and cybersecurity. National industrial strategies for building critical technologies challenge the scope of ‘national security’ in international intellectual property (IP) protection ...

ABSTRACT Soil nutrient transformation capacity is a critical determinant of sustainable productivity in perennial cropping systems; however, the extent to which high‐yielding crops actively regulate rhizosphere microbial assembly to maintain nutrient availability remains poorly understood.

Combined Fe deficiency and drought in durum wheat trigger interactive responses: drought suppressed root Fe uptake regardless of Fe availability, and both stresses altered phytosiderophore release, ABA level and Fe transporter gene expression, revealing a trade‐off between water and Fe. Abstract Iron (Fe) is essential for plants and humans, with over 2
