Beyond Reality Avoidance: Unraveling the Paradox of Escapism Through Self‐Monitoring and Autonomy Mechanisms for Consumers' Life Satisfaction

Psychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study introduces the Paradox of Escapism, exploring how the act of escaping reality can evolve from a short‐term avoidance strategy to a mechanism for self‐regulation and enhanced life satisfaction. Employing five rigorous, multimethod investigations, including qualitative interviews and sentiment analysis (Study 1), Structural Equation ...

Recycling of Thermoplastic Unidirectional Tapes: An Image‐Analysis Method for Measuring Residual Glass‐Fiber Length in Convoluted Fiber Clusters

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Development of a rapid, low‐cost method for measuring residual glass fibre length: samples are collected by tweezers, prepared via submersion, imaged with a flatbed scanner as a cost‐effective alternative to microscopy, and analyzed for fibre length independently of image acquisition.

Mechanical and Impact Response of Adhesively Bonded ASA/PA12 Sandwich Structures Produced by Fused Filament Fabrication

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Adhesively bonded ASA/PA12 FFF sandwich structures reveal that interfacial compliance governs mechanical performance. Cyanoacrylate enhances strength but induces brittle failure, while polyurethane improves ductility and impact resistance, demonstrating that adhesive properties and stacking sequence are critical design parameters for optimizing multi ...

Within‐tree spatial heterogeneity of sap flow velocities and wood properties and its effect on the uncertainty of tree level sap flux estimates

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As forests are important for biodiversity and recreation and provide vital resources globally, it is essential that their health can be accurately monitored, for example, by using sap flow probes to measure tree water uptake. We investigated whether sap flow measurements might differ at various locations within the same tree due to variation in wood ...

Linear System Identification and Control of a Low‐Cost High‐Performance Omnidirectional Marine Surface Vehicle for Swarming Applications

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine operations traditionally rely on human intervention, a costly and disruptive method. Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) offer a powerful alternative, capable of operating autonomously, for extended periods, and with various sensors for various missions.
