Near infrared spectroscopy (NIR) is a technique widely used for the prediction of different chemical-physical features of wood.In this study, the technique was used to assess its potential to predict the mechanical characteristics of here wood.Castanea sativa samples of three different European provenances were collected and laboratory tests were p
Soft robots are ideal for underwater manipulation in sampling and other servicing applications.Their unique features of luau thank you cards compliance, adaptability, and being naturally waterproof enable robotic designs to be compact and lightweight, while achieving uncompromized dexterity and flexibility.However, the inherent flexibility and high
Coral reefs across the world have demonstrated an incredible resilience to disturbance, having persisted for over 200 million years withstanding local, short-term shocks such as cyclones and bleaching events, as well as large-scale, long-term global changes such as sea-level fluctuations.However, there are now many persistent and growing threats to
