Evidence date ·How machine learning estimates galaxy star formation and groups solar images
PreprintA 2021 preprint compares galaxy predictions with reference estimates and groups solar images, showing where physical interpretation enters the work.
-
Evidence date ·Tiny spaces in lightweight concrete can store ingredients for crack repair
Review or Meta-AnalysisStored water, chemicals, or bacteria can help lightweight concrete repair cracks. A 2022 review explains why closing a crack differs from recovering strength.
-
Evidence date ·How fabric mesh carries load after the mortar around it cracks
Review or Meta-AnalysisTests of mortar with fabric mesh show how cracks, slip and grips affect models, and why using measured failure strain improves agreement.
-
Evidence date ·Industrial waste and the right mix for affordable crack repair
Review or Meta-AnalysisA 2022 review connects waste reuse with several crack-healing approaches, whose usefulness depends on concrete mix design, treatment and environmental conditions.
-
Evidence date ·How combining materials can shape a support for growing bone
Peer-Reviewed PaperA January 2021 review explains how particles, pores and water-holding networks serve tissue repair, and why those properties cannot establish patient benefits.
-
Evidence date ·How renewable supporting materials shape what enzymes can do
Review or Meta-AnalysisCarrier surfaces help explain how enzymes can be recovered for reuse, but a January 2021 review’s abstract cannot identify the best material for a process.
-
Evidence date ·A natural polymer gives self-healing materials more places to connect
Peer-Reviewed PaperWhat strength, stiffness and 86% recovery mean in a lignin polymer study—and why UV absorption suggests a possible role in protective coatings.
-
Evidence date ·Teaching AI to connect fiber arrangements with material behavior
Peer-Reviewed PaperPhysics-based rankings guide AI pretraining, while images add detail beyond numbers. Two datasets test the approach in computational materials design.
-
Evidence date ·Could aging cells help repair tissue while keeping their role?
Review or Meta-AnalysisA review connects changes in cellular aging, tissue repair and lifespan in some models, while explaining why delivery and timing matter for potential treatments.
-
Evidence date ·Working backward from the properties a fungal material needs
Review or Meta-AnalysisA review proposes linking measurable fungal traits with computer search, modeling, and simpler descriptions to design materials for particular uses.
