Hierarchical and reconfigurable interfibrous interface of bioinspired Bouligand structure enabled by moderate orderliness.

Introducing natural Bouligand structure into synthetics is expected to develop high-performance structural materials. Interfibrous interface is critical to load transfer, and mechanical functionality of bioinspired Bouligand structure yet receives little attention. Here, we propose one kind of hierarchical and reconfigurable interfibrous interface based on moderate orderliness to mechanically reinforce bioinspired Bouligand structure.

[Predicting the potential distribution of dominant species of the coastal wetland in the Yellow River Delta, China using MaxEnt model].

Soil and vegetation community were investigated using the method of kilometer grid sampling. In addition, using the maximum entropy (MaxEnt) and the GIS spatial analysis technique, the potential distribution of dominant species in the Yellow River Delta and their major environmental variables and ecological parameters were quantitatively analyzed. The results showed that the dominant species of the coastal wetland were Tamarix chinensis, Phragmites australis and Suaeda salsa in the Yellow River Delta.
