The stomatopod dactyl club : a formidable damage-tolerant biological hammer by Weaver, James C., Milliron, Garrett W., Mershon, William J., DiMasi, Elaine, Kisailus, David, Miserez, Ali, Evans-Lutterodt, Kenneth, Herrera, Steven, Gallana, Isaias, Swanson, Brook, Zavattieri, Pablo

“…The dactyl clubs from one species, Odontodactylus scyllarus, exhibit an impressive set of characteristics adapted for surviving high-velocity impacts on the heavily mineralized prey on which they feed. Consisting of a multiphase composite of oriented crystalline hydroxyapatite and amorphous calcium phosphate and carbonate, in conjunction with a highly expanded helicoidal organization of the fibrillar chitinous organic matrix, these structures display several effective lines of defense against catastrophic failure during repetitive high-energy loading events.…”

Splatter image: ultra-fast single-view 3D reconstruction by Szymanowicz, S, Rupprecht, C, Vedaldi, A

“…We apply Gaussian Splatting to monocular reconstruction by learning a neural network that, at test time, performs reconstruction in a feed-forward manner, at 38 FPS. Our main innovation is the surprisingly straightforward design of this network, which, using 2D operators, maps the input image to one 3D Gaussian per pixel. …”

Roughness-Controlled Self-Assembly of Mannitol/LB Agar Microparticles by Polymorphic Transformation for Pulmonary Drug Delivery by Zhang, Fengying, Ngoc, Nguyen Thi Quynh, Tay, Bao Hui, Mendyk, Aleksander, Shao, Yu-Hsuan, Lau, Raymond

“…An FPF of 28.6 ± 2.4% was achieved by microparticles transformed from spray-dried microparticles using 2% mannitol(w/v)/LB Agar as feed solution. It is comparable to the highest FPF reported in the literature using lactose and spray-dried mannitol as carriers.…”

Selective sulfidation of metal compounds by Stinn, Caspar, Allanore, Antoine

“…Several simple process levers (gas partial pressure, gas flowrate, carbon addition) were demonstrated to selectively sulfidize a target metal from a mixed metal oxide feed. The physical and chemical differences between the sulfide and oxide compounds (e.g. density, magnetic susceptibility, surface chemistry) can then be exploited for vastly improved separation over liquid-liquid methods9. …”
