Shifting sands: The influence of coral reefs on shoreline erosion from short-term storm protection to long-term disequilibrium by Stephan A Bitterwolf, Borja G Reguero, Curt D Storlazzi, Michael W Beck

“…Consistent with prior research, we find beaches protected by coral reefs with shallow reef crests, wide reef flats, calmer offshore conditions, and positioned farther from the shore exhibit lower erosion rates than others. Finally, when comparing historical erosion rates of protected and unprotected beaches in Hawai'i, we find a seemingly incongruous pattern where coral reef-protected beaches eroded up to 2x faster than beaches without reefs. …”

Dynamic tensile mechanical properties and damage fracture mechanisms of saturated frozen sandstone by Ming Li, Fuqiang Zhu, Yiwen Mao, Peng Wu, Yanlong Chen, Ketong Wu, Jiazhi Zhang, Hao Yu

“…In contrast, the dynamic peak strain decreases with either decreasing temperature or lower strain rate. High-speed camera imaging and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis further reveal that decreasing temperature or increasing strain rate leads to more complex macroscopic failure patterns and rougher, more irregular fracture surfaces. …”

Characterization and dissolution test of recrystallized mefenamic acid by fast cooling methods by La Ode Akbar Rasydy, Hilda Damayanti, Erza Satrio, Jaka Supriyanta

“…Mefenamic acid, classified as a Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS) Class II drug, exhibits high permeability but low dissolution rates, limiting its bioavailability. This study aims to enhance the dissolution rate of mefenamic acid through crystal structure modification using fast cooling recrystallization with three distinct solvents: acetone (AMA), ether (AMEt), and ethyl acetate (AME). …”
