Water could degrade attachment disc adhesion by either interfering with placement of the discs or later reducing adhesion during loading. We tested the effect of water on the adhesion of attachment discs for the spider Latrodectus hesperus, which spins webs in mostly dry environments. We compared adhesion for discs spun on wet versus dry glass that were subsequently loaded in either wet or dry conditions. Attachment discs placed on wet glass showed similar adhesion to discs placed on dry glass. However, water significantly decreased both peak force of adhesion and work of adhesion when loading occurred under wet conditions, regardless of initial placement conditions. Furthermore, failure mode shifted from rupture of draglines in dry loading conditions to adhesive failure of discs in wet loading conditions. Our results show the importance of considering both the conditions in which biological structures are produced and those in which the structures perform as potentially independent factors for performance. Our results also suggest that adhesion in wet conditions can challenge some spiders, potentially leading to specialization of attachment discs for riparian or aquatic species.","PeriodicalId":17488,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Royal Society Interface","volume":"22 223","pages":"20240650"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11813564/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143399527","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This concept has inspired engineering applications across robotics, transportation and medicine. Recent studies suggest that functional grading of fibril properties can improve adhesion, but this is a complex design challenge that has only been explored in simplified geometries. While machine learning (ML) has gained traction in adhesive design, no previous attempts have targeted fibril-array scale optimization. In this study, we propose an ML-based tool that optimizes the distribution of fibril compliance to maximize adhesive strength. Our tool, featuring two neural networks (NNs), recovers previous design results for simple geometries and introduces novel solutions for complex configurations. The predictor NN estimates adhesive strength based on random compliance distributions, while the designer NN optimizes compliance distribution to achieve maximum strength using gradient-based optimization. This method significantly reduces test error and accelerates the optimization process, offering a high-performance solution for designing fibrillar adhesives and micro-architected materials aimed at fracture resistance by achieving equal load sharing.","PeriodicalId":17488,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Royal Society Interface","volume":"22 223","pages":"20240636"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11858785/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143501845","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We demonstrate pattern recognition in the green algae Volvox using phototactic experiments with varied light pulse patterns, measuring their phototactic bias as a readout for their preferential ability to detect and adapt to one pattern over another. Results show Volvox adapt more readily to regular patterns than irregular ones and even exhibit memory properties, exhibiting a crucial component of basal intelligence. Pharmacological and electric shock-based interventions and photoadaptation simulations reveal how randomized stimuli interfere with normal photoadaptation through a structured dynamic interplay of colony rotation and calcium-mediated photoreceptor-to-flagellar information transfer, consistent with uncertainty minimization.

During their maturation, multiple types of pre-miRNAs compete for a shared pool of the enzyme Dicer. It is unknown how this competition for a shared resource influences the relative expression of mature miRNAs. We study this process in a computational model of pre-miRNA maturation, fitted to in vitro Drosophila S2 cell data. We find that those pre-miRNAs that efficiently interact with Dicer outcompete other pre-miRNAs, when Dicer is scarce. To test our model predictions, we re-analysed previously published ex vivo mouse striatum data with reduced Dicer1 expression. We calculated a proxy measure for pre-miRNA affinity to TRBP (a protein that loads pre-miRNAs to Dicer). This measures well-predicted mature miRNA levels in the data, validating our assumptions. We used this as a basis to test the the model's predictions through further analysis of the data. We found that pre-miRNAs with strong TRBP association are over-represented in competition conditions, consistent with the modelling. Finally using further simulations, we discovered that pre-miRNAs with low maturation rates can affect the mature miRNA pool via competition among pre-miRNAs. Overall, this work presents evidence of pre-miRNA competition regulating the composition of mature miRNAs.","PeriodicalId":17488,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Royal Society Interface","volume":"22 223","pages":"20240870"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11835486/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143449141","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We developed a distributed-lag Markov state transition model to estimate the effects of temperature and precipitation on the timing of transmission season onset and end, analysing reported coccidioidomycosis cases (n = 72 125) in California from 2000 to 2023. Using G-computation substitution estimators, we examined how hypothetical changes in seasonal meteorology impact transmission season timing. Transitions from cooler, wetter conditions to hotter, drier conditions were found to significantly accelerate season onset. Dry conditions (10th percentile of precipitation) in the spring shifted season onset an average of 2.8 weeks (95% CI: 0.43-3.58) earlier compared with wet conditions (90th percentile of precipitation). Conversely, transitions back to cooler, wetter conditions hastened season end, with dry autumn conditions extending the season by an average of 0.69 weeks (95% CI: 0.37-1.41) compared with wet conditions. When dry conditions occurred in the spring and autumn, the transmission season extended by 3.70 weeks (95% CI: 1.23-4.22).

Inspired by the flight of Cynopterus brachyotis, the lesser short-nosed fruit bat, we built a two-degree-of-freedom flapping wing platform with variable wing folding capability. In the late upstroke, the wings 'clap' and produce an air jet that significantly increases lift production, with a positive peak matched to that produced in the downstroke. Though ventral clapping has been observed in avian flight, the potential aerodynamic benefit of this behaviour is yet to be rigorously assessed. We used multiple approaches-quasi-steady modelling, direct force/power measurement and particle image velocimetry (PIV) experiments in a wind tunnel-to understand critical aspects of lift and power variation in relation to wing folding magnitude over Strouhal numbers at St = 0.2-0.4. While lift increases monotonically with folding amplitude in that range, power economy (ratio of lift/power) is more nuanced. At St = 0.2-0.3, it increases with wing folding amplitude monotonically. At St = 0.3-0.4, it features two maxima-one at medium folding amplitude (approx. 30°) and the other at maximum folding. These findings illuminate two strategies available to flapping wing animals and robots-symmetry-breaking lift augmentation and appendage-based jet propulsion.","PeriodicalId":17488,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Royal Society Interface","volume":"22 223","pages":"20240590"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11837331/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143449234","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless primordial life somehow emerged despite that presumed handicap. A resolution of this problem is important in emergence-of-life science because it would provide valuable guidance in choosing subsequent paths of investigation, such as identifying pre-biotic patterns on Mars. To study the problem we set up a simple non-equilibrium flow dynamical model for the coupled temperature and mass dynamics of the decomposition of a polymeric carbohydrate adsorbed on a mineral surface, with incident stochastic thermal fluctuations. Results show that the model system behaves as a reciprocating thermochemical oscillator. The output fluctuation distribution is bimodal, with a right-weighted component that guarantees a bias towards detachment and desorption of monomeric species such as ribose, even while tar is formed concomitantly. This fluctuating thermochemical reciprocator may ensure that non-performing polymers can be fractionated into a refractory carbon reservoir and active monomers which may be reincorporated into better-performing polymers with less vulnerability towards adsorptive tarring.","PeriodicalId":17488,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Royal Society Interface","volume":"22 223","pages":"20240492"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11796468/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143189510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

'Vaccine efficacy' describes a population-level effect measured in clinical trials, but mathematical models used to evaluate the impact of vaccination campaigns require specifying how vaccines fail at the individual level, which is often impossible to measure. Does 90% efficacy imply perfect protection in 90% of people and no protection in 10% ('all-or-nothing') or that the per-exposure risk is reduced by 90% in all vaccinated individuals ('leaky') or somewhere in between? Here, we systematically investigate the role of vaccine failure mode in controlling ongoing epidemics. We find that the difference in population-level impact between all-or-nothing and leaky vaccines can be substantial when R0 is higher, vaccines efficacy is intermediate, and vaccines slow but cannot curtail an outbreak. Comparing COVID-19 pandemic phases, we show times when model predictions would have been most sensitive to assumptions about vaccine failure mode. When determining the optimal risk group to prioritize for limited vaccines, we find that modelling a leaky vaccine as all-or-nothing (or vice versa) can change the recommended target group. Overall, we conclude that models of vaccination campaigns should include uncertainty about vaccine failure mode in their design and interpretation.","PeriodicalId":17488,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Royal Society Interface","volume":"22 223","pages":"20240689"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11835492/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143449238","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, protected infrastructure should be planned cohesively for the whole city and spacious enough to accommodate all cyclists safely and prevent cyclist congestion-a common problem in cycling cities like Copenhagen. Here, we devise an adaptive method for optimal bicycle network design and for evaluating congestion criticalities on bicycle paths. The method goes beyond static network measures, using computationally efficient adaptation rules inspired by optimal transport on the dynamically updating multilayer network of roads and protected bicycle lanes. Street capacities and cyclist flows reciprocally control each other to optimally accommodate cyclists on streets with one control parameter that dictates the preference of bicycle infrastructure over roads. Applying our method to Copenhagen confirms that the city's bicycle network is generally well-developed. However, we are able to identify the network's bottlenecks, and we find, at a finer scale, disparities in network accessibility and criticalities between different neighbourhoods. Our model and results are generalizable beyond this particular case study to serve as a scalable and versatile tool for aiding urban planners in designing cycling-friendly cities.","PeriodicalId":17488,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Royal Society Interface","volume":"22 223","pages":"20240532"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11793972/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143189506","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
