Steel is a common benchmark against which the strength of materials is measured, with "stronger than steel" a familiar catch cry for those touting the properties of some new space-age material. But ...
From bone to spider silk, examples of hierarchical structures conferring untold strength to materials abound in nature. While materials scientists have been quick to mimic the approach to enhance ...
Aim: Changes in climate and land use are modifying biodiversity worldwide. Yet it remains unclear how both drivers interact to structure communities and determine patterns in taxonomic, phylogenetic ...
CS/Ti3C2Tx/Co@CNTs composite could obtain the minimum reflection loss (RLmin) of -55.01 dB at the thickness of 3.4 mm and the ...
In this study, we investigate changes in ecosystem structure that occur over a gradient of land-degradation in the southwestern USA, where shrubs are encroaching into native grassland. We evaluate a ...
Even as solar researchers strive to squeeze every drop of efficiency from the industry-ruling silicon solar-cell technology, scientists are constantly questing for the next, cheaper, more efficient ...
The internal structure of gas giant planets may be more complex than the commonly assumed core-envelope structure with an adiabatic temperature profile. Different primordial internal structures as ...
