Abstract
It is a promising research direction to develop catalysts with high stability and ozone utilization for low-temperature ozone catalytic oxidation of VOCs. While bimetallic catalysts exhibit excellent catalytic activity compared with conventional single noble metal catalysts, limited success has been achieved in the influence of the bimetallic effect on the stability and ozone utilization of metal catalysts. Herein, it is necessary to systematically study the enhancement effect in the ozone catalytic reaction induced by the second metal. With a simple continuous impregnation method, a platinum-cerium bimetallic catalyst is prepared. Also highlighted are studies from several aspects of the contribution of the second metal (Ce) to the stability and ozone utilization of the catalysts, including the "electronic effect" and "geometric effect". The synergistic removal rate of toluene and ozone is nearly 100% at 30 °C, and it still shows positive stability after high humidity and a long reaction time. More importantly, the instructive significance, which is the in-depth knowledge of enhanced catalytic mechanism of bimetallic catalysts resulting from a second metal, is provided by this work.

Abstract
Complete ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) in C1 pathway with 12 transferred electrons is highly desirable yet challenging in direct ethanol fuel cells. Herein, PtRh jagged nanowires synthesized via a simple wet-chemical approach exhibit exceptional EOR mass activity of 1.63 A mgPt-1 and specific activity of 4.07 mA cm-2 , 3.62-fold and 4.28-folds increments relative to Pt/C, respectively. High proportions of 69.33% and 73.42% of initial activity are also retained after chronoamperometric test (80 000 s) and 1500 consecutive potential cycles, respectively. More importantly, it is found that PtRh jagged nanowires possess superb anti-CO poisoning capability. Combining X-ray absorption spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy as well as density functional theory calculations unveil that the remarkable catalytic activity and CO tolerance stem from both the Rh-induced electronic effect and geometric effect (manifested by shortened Pt─Pt bond length and shrinkage of lattice constants), which facilitates EOR catalysis in C1 pathway and improves reaction kinetics by reducing energy barriers of rate-determining steps (such as *CO → *COOH). The C1 pathway efficiency of PtRh jagged nanowires is further verified by the high intensity of CO2 relative to CH3 COOH/CH3 CHO in infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy.

Abstract
The legacy of the 'SL > SS principle', that a single or a few large habitat patches (SL) conserve more species than several small patches (SS), is evident in decisions to protect large patches while down-weighting small ones. However, empirical support for this principle is lacking, and most studies find either no difference or the opposite pattern (SS > SL). To resolve this dilemma, we propose a research agenda by asking, 'are there consistent, empirically demonstrated conditions leading to SL > SS?' We first review and summarize 'single large or several small' (SLOSS) theory and predictions. We found that most predictions of SL > SS assume that between-patch variation in extinction rate dominates the outcome of the extinction-colonization dynamic. This is predicted to occur when populations in separate patches are largely independent of each other due to low between-patch movements, and when species differ in minimum patch size requirements, leading to strong nestedness in species composition along the patch size gradient. However, even when between-patch variation in extinction rate dominates the outcome of the extinction-colonization dynamic, theory can predict SS > SL. This occurs if extinctions are caused by antagonistic species interactions or disturbances, leading to spreading-of-risk of landscape-scale extinction across SS. SS > SL is also predicted when variation in colonization dominates the outcome of the extinction-colonization dynamic, due to higher immigration rates for SS than SL, and larger species pools in proximity to SS than SL. Theory that considers change in species composition among patches also predicts SS > SL because of higher beta diversity across SS than SL. This results mainly from greater environmental heterogeneity in SS due to greater variation in micro-habitats within and across SS habitat patches ('across-habitat heterogeneity'), and/or more heterogeneous successional trajectories across SS than SL. Based on our review of the relevant theory, we develop the 'SLOSS cube hypothesis', where the combination of three variables - between-patch movement, the role of spreading-of-risk in landscape-scale population persistence, and across-habitat heterogeneity - predict the SLOSS outcome. We use the SLOSS cube hypothesis and existing SLOSS empirical evidence, to predict SL > SS only when all of the following are true: low between-patch movement, low importance of spreading-of-risk for landscape-scale population persistence, and low across-habitat heterogeneity. Testing this prediction will be challenging, as it will require many studies of species groups and regions where these conditions hold. Each such study would compare gamma diversity across multiple landscapes varying in number and sizes of patches. If the prediction is not generally supported across such tests, then the mechanisms leading to SL > SS are extremely rare in nature and the SL > SS principle should be abandoned.

Abstract
Thanks to their distinguished properties such as optimized specific surface area, low density, high loading capacity, and sequential matter transfer and storage, hollow multishelled structures (HoMSs) have attracted great interest from scientists in broad fields, including catalysis, drug delivery, solar cells, supercapacitors, lithium-ion batteries, electromagnetic wave absorption, and sensors. However, traditional synthesis methods such as soft-templating and hierarchical self-assembly methods can hardly realize the controllable synthesis of HoMSs, thus limiting their development and application. Here, the development process of HoMSs is first succinctly reviewed and the shortcomings of the traditional synthesis method are concluded. Subsequently, the sequential templating approach, which shows great generality for the synthesis of HoMSs with controllable composition and geometry configuration and exhibits remarkable effect on the scientific research field, is introduced. The basic material science and chemical reaction mechanism involved in the synthesis and manipulation of HoMSs using the sequential templating approach are then explained in detail. In addition, the effect of the geometric characteristics of HoMSs on their application properties is highlighted. Finally, the current challenges and future research directions of HoMSs are also suggested.

Abstract
This study presents a set of experimental and numerical investigations to study the sensitivity of the piezoelectric-based smart interface device to structural damage in a bolted connection. The study aims to identify the proper geometric sizes of smart interfaces for damage detection tasks. First, the fundamentals of the damage monitoring technique via lead zirconate titanate (PZT) interface is briefly described for a bolted connection. Second, a lab-scaled girder connection is selected as the test structure for the experimental investigation. PZT interface prototypes with varying geometric sizes are designed for the test connection. Under the bolt-loosening inflicted in the connection, the impedance responses of the PZT interfaces are analyzed to understand the effect of geometric parameters on the damage sensitivity of the impedance responses. Subsequently, the bolt-loosening detection capabilities of the PZT interfaces are comparatively evaluated for identifying the proper geometric sizes of the devices. Finally, a finite element model of the PZT interface-bolted connection system is established for the numerical investigation. The damage sensitivity of the numerical impedance responses is compared with the experimental results for the verification.

Abstract
In the present work, we focused on geometrical (single- or double-tipped) and compositional (Pt or Au) variations of active metal components in a well-defined CdSe nanorod system. These colloidal nanostructures were employed for photocatalytic hydrogen generation from water under the identical reaction conditions with visible light irradiation. The catalysts exhibited significant dependency of the catalytic activity, specifically on the catalyst geometry and the choice of the metal tips, determined by the energetic consideration of electron transfer to the metal tips and hole transfer to the sacrificial reagents on the CdSe nanorods.
