Fish Scales: A Multifunctional Biomaterial from Nature
ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.Fish scales demonstrate nature's solution to impact protection through overlapping multilayered architecture. This biological design combines mineralized surfaces with collagen networks to achieve both flexibility and fracture resistance. The structural principles inspire advanced protective materials and biomedical implants, where damage tolerance ...

Development of processes for the production of solar grade silicon from halides and alkali metals [PDF]
High temperature reactions of silicon halides with alkali metals for the production of solar grade silicon in volume at low cost were studied. Experiments were performed to evaluate product separation and collection processes, measure heat release ...

Eye &ENT Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Contact lenses (CLs) are increasingly used worldwide for refractive error correction because of their optical, cosmetic, and functional advantages over spectacles. However, although their safe and effective use depends on adequate knowledge and proper hygiene practices, there is limited evidence on contact lens‐related knowledge ...

Focal seizures during simulated driving: A pilot study
Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Cars are increasingly equipped with technology that can be used to analyze driver behavior and alertness, often referred to as driver monitoring systems (DMS). Although initially mainly used to track drivers' attention, DMS are now expanding in the hope of detecting additional forms of driver impairment that may jeopardize driving, such as ...

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.An adaptive fuzzy controller using an interval type‐3 fuzzy logic system replaces the SMC switching term to mitigate chattering while preserving global stability for islanded inverters. Simulations show lower THD, greater robustness to disturbances and parameter variations, and improved voltage‐tracking accuracy, with applicability to other uncertain ...

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.Passing vehicles generate short‐duration wakes that can be redirected toward a vertical‐axis turbine. The interaction between wake structure, blade count, and rotational speed governs transient torque production. Low‐solidity configurations combined with tuned rotational speed enhance energy extraction under vehicle‐induced gusts.

Development of the silane process for the production of low-cost polysilicon [PDF]
It was recognized that the traditional hot rod type deposition process for decomposing silane is energy intensive, and a different approach for converting silane to silicon was chosen.

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.Abstract Hospitalists care for patients with acute pain who have an opioid use disorder and require pain management. Hospitalists may withhold opioids for acute pain due to a variety of reasons. However, adequate pain management in patients with opioid use disorder, including with opioids, is the standard of care. This piece explains how to best manage
