Metabarcoding the night sky: Monitoring landscape-scale insect diversity through bat diet by Cynthia Tobisch, Svenja Dege, Bernd Panassiti, Julian Treffler, Christoph Moning

“…We collected 24 fecal samples from 12 roosting places in Southern Germany and assessed insect richness and composition using DNA metabarcoding. We explored spatial and temporal variation in the diet of P. pipistrellus and quantified effects of landscape composition and configuration on insect species richness and composition using generalized linear models and non-metric multidimensional scaling. …”

OBTAINING NEW THIN WALLED TUBULAR STRUCTURES THROUGH MATRIX MORPHOLOGICAL RESEARCH by VLAD ANDREI CIUBOTARIU, CRINA MARIA RADU, COSMIN GRIGORAȘ, EUGEN HERGHELEGIU

“…The focus of this study is to obtain new thin walled tubular structures - such as car crash members - which in the case of axial shock loads have a higher predictable behavior compared to those already used in various technical fields. Following the study, it can be said that depending on the amount of absorbed energy in the case of axial collisions and the absorption of kinetic energy developed at the time of impact, the optimal crashworthiness solution could be tubular structures with a circular support base and rectangular deformable area for impact. …”
