In 2022, the United Nations General Assembly adopted resolution 76/255, hailing the bicycle as a form of sustainable transportation, recognizing “that the bicycle can serve as a tool for development and as a means not just of transportation but also of access to education, health care and sport” (UN General Assembly, 2022, p. 2). Indeed, […]

The expanding economy, coupled with increased human activities and the rising demand for petroleum hydrocarbons, has led to a surge in high-risk pollutants like Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, and Xylene (BTEX). These carcinogenic chemicals are notorious for their potential to escape from storage tanks, pipelines, and oil tankers, infiltrating the ocean’s subsurface. Once in the environment, […]

Ocean industries, such as shipbuilding and offshore energy, face challenges in selecting materials that can endure corrosive environments, high pressures, and mechanical stresses. While materials like composites and aluminum offer promise, their adoption is slowed by their inherently complex and nonlinear mechanical behavior, which is sensitive to environmental conditions, as well as by the time-consuming, […]
