On the Origins of Out‐of‐Plane Auxetic Response in Paper

open access: yesphysica status solidi (b), EarlyView.
Paper can be auxetic! Paper can exhibit a range of out‐of‐plane Poisson's ratio (PR) values. Examining handsheets made from hardwood (HW) and softwood (SW) fibers, of a variety of weights (1, 3, or 5 g) and refining degrees (none, R, or R+), showed that the sign and magnitude of PR can be finely controlled by modifying network parameters.

Simple and detailed modeling of corrosion‐affected slender shear critical RC beams

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The corrosion of steel bars compromises both the safety and the serviceability of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Consequently, reliable tools are required to estimate the detrimental effects of corrosion on the structural response of RC members subjected to transverse loads.

M. E. Grant Duff, Philosophic Liberalism and the Global Liberal Cause

open access: yesHistory, EarlyView.
Abstract Historians disagree about how best to conceptualize nineteenth‐century British Liberalism in relation to its international contexts. This article argues that we can better understand the patterns involved by interrogating individuals who bridged the worlds of partisan politics and elaborated thought.

Design by analysis of ductile failure and buckling in torispherical pressure vessel heads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Thin shell torispherical pressure vessel heads are known to exhibit complex elastic-plastic deformation and buckling behaviour under static pressure. In pressure vessel Design by Analysis, the designer is required to assess both of these behaviour modes ...

Three hundred sixty‐degree prophylactic laser retinopexy versus focal laser during rhegmatogenous retinal detachment repair: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare the anatomic, functional and safety outcomes of intra‐operative 360‐degree prophylactic laser retinopexy versus focal laser retinopexy during pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) and to assess the certainty of evidence.

Span-dependent comparative analysis of lateral torsional buckling and nonlinear load behaviour in castellated and solid I-beams using analytical and finite element approaches

open access: yesMaterials Research Express
Castellated beams (CB), widely employed in modern construction, offer an improved strength-to-weight ratio and enhanced structural efficiency due to their increased depth and moment of inertia.

Experimental studies on the tripping behavior of narrow T-stiffened flat plates subjected to hydrostatic pressure and underwater shock [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
An experimental investigation was conducted to determine the static and dynamic responses of a specific stiffened flat plate design. The air-backed rectangular flat plates of 6061-T6 aluminum with an externally machined longitudinal narrow-flanged T ...

Geometry Analysis of Two Photon Polymerized Microneedles—An Experimental and Simulated Approach

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 22, June 10, 2026.
This research investigates the mechanical stability of hollow, two‐photon‐polymerized microneedles for drug delivery. In an experimental setup, a steel stamp gradually compresses 1000 μm‐tall microneedles while recording their force–deformation response.

Load-carrying behaviour of web-core sandwich plates in compression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper investigates theoretically the compressive load-carrying behaviour of geometrically imperfect web-core sandwich plates. Slender plates, which first buckle globally, are considered.

Serious Games in Mechanics: GAMEchanics—The First Mechanics‐Themed Escape Room

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Serious games are fully developed games designed with purposes beyond entertainment, such as education or training. They combine narrative structures, rule‐based systems, and problem‐based learning within an interactive environment, enabling experiential learning through player interaction.
