Projectile impact-induced spalling damage on carbon fiber reinforced polymer strengthened RC plates by Tu, Huan, Fung, Tat Ching, Del Linz, Paolo, Tan, Kang Hai

“…As the most widely used material in protective structures, a better understanding of the resistance of reinforced concrete (RC) to high-speed projectile striking is needed. It has been accepted that concrete material possesses limited impact resistance in virtue of its poor energy absorption capacity. …”

Annihilation mechanisms for interacting skyrmions in magnetic nanowire by Al Saidi, W., Bhatti, Sabpreet, Piramanayagam, S. N., Sbiaa, R.

“…In this paper, the interaction, dynamics and annihilation mechanisms of Néel skyrmions in nanowire confinement under the influence of spin-transfer torque (STT) and edge forces have been studied. Initially isolated, two Néel skyrmions are brought into proximity, leading to distinct interaction scenarios characterized by varying current densities. …”

Manipulating fungal growth in engineered living materials through precise deposition of nutrients by Teoh, Jia Heng, Soh, Eugene, Le Ferrand, Hortense

“…Although three-dimensional (3D) printing can efficiently vary local composition and properties, it has not yet been demonstrated in fungal-based ELMs. This work thus explores the concept of using nutrients to manipulate fungal foraging behavior in 3D structures fabricated using direct ink writing (DIW) for the next generation of fungal-based ELMs. …”
