BeyondFreeze Concentration:Interfacial ProcessesShape Cr(VI) Reduction by Organic Acids in Frozen Systems

Abstract Ice-phase Cr(VI) reduction is commonly attributed to freeze concentration and proton enrichment, implicitly assuming solution-like reaction mechanisms. However, this study reveals that interfacial processes serve as a critical complement to freeze concentration and stron...

Financial Shared Services and Dynamic Adjustment of Working Capital: A Moderated Analysis of Supply Chain Concentration

Digital technologies are increasingly adopted in corporate liquidity management, yet whether financial digitalization enables firms to achieve more effective working capital adjustment remains insufficiently understood. Financial shared services (FSS) may strengthen information i...

Building a Physics-Aware AI Ecosystem for Solid-State Hydrogen Storage Materials

Abstract Hydrogen storage remains a central bottleneck for scalable hydrogen energy systems due to the multiscale and coupled nature of the thermodynamics, kinetics, and microstructural evolution of hydrogen storage materials (HSMs). Although artificial intelligence (AI) has acce...

Synthesis and Property Study on Homoaromatic Thiabenzenes

ABSTRACT Thiabenzenes, as nontraditional heterocycles, exhibit both ylide and aromatic character and pose challenges in synthesis, especially in asymmetric synthesis. Their aromaticity also lacks direct experimental evidence. This article introduces a new strategy for synthesizin...

Buried Interfaces as Functional Architectures in Rechargeable Batteries: A FIB-Enabled Perspective

Buried interfaces and interphases often govern performance loss in rechargeable batteries, although their functions are frequently inferred from spatially averaged composition, surface-sensitive measurements, or cell-level electrochemical response. In this Perspective, an interfa...

Phylogenetic structure of conifers in regional floras in relation to climate and environmental heterogeneity worldwide

Despite having only about 670 species worldwide, conifers are one of the ecologically and economically most important plant groups. They have a rich fossil record and previous studies have shown that their current diversity is the result of past radiations, extinction, and disper...

The Influence of Immersion Duration on Erosion Differentiation Along Riverbanks in the Middle Yangtze River

ABSTRACT The middle reaches of the Yangtze River, especially the Jiujiang region with unconsolidated soil, suffer frequent erosion‐induced collapses, yet the mechanism by which immersion duration regulates soil properties and drives differential erosion remains unclear. To addres...

Host-ControlledStepwise CO2 Growth onMaleic Anhydride Revealed by Rotational Spectroscopy

Abstract Gas-phase aggregation of CO2 with organic compounds provides molecular-level benchmarks for understanding how weak interactions guide early cluster growth─a process relevant to CO2 recognition, uptake, and organization in chemically diverse environments. Here, clusters o...

Case report and literature review of synchronous follicular and papillary thyroid carcinoma with metastasis to femur

Thyroid carcinoma is common, but the synchronous occurrence of bilateral tumors with discordant histology—specifically follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) and papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC)—is extremely rare. It is even more uncommon for such cases to present initially with dis...

A Multimodal large language model-based triage tool for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures using posture and movement videos

Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) is common yet frequently underdiagnosed due to nonspecific symptoms and limited access to definitive imaging. We developed a two-stage screening framework that integrates prompt-guided multimodal large language model (LLM) featur...

Bug Localization for RTL designs Based on Multi-Features Deep Learning

Hardware verification of the register transfer level (RTL) designs is a critical step in the development of complex digital circuits, ensuring their functional correctness, performance, and reliability. Within this crucial process, bug localization is an essential component for p...

A new methodology for habit plane and orientation relationship prediction in precipitation strengthening of magnesium alloys

A new approach is presented, integrating the maximum atomic matching on the habit plane and reduced interfacial energy, to predict the orientation relationships (OR) and habit planes of precipitates in magnesium alloys. Understanding these ORs and habit planes is essential, as th...

Location-private traffic flow prediction via an encrypted geometric recruitment framework

Accurate traffic flow prediction at specific road segments is essential for optimizing signal control, mitigating congestion, and improving the efficiency of urban transportation systems. Mobile Crowdsensing (MCS) enables large-scale monitoring by collecting geotagged data from p...

How Economic Policy Uncertainty Is Associated with Spillover Networks: A TVP-VAR-DY Analysis of Energy and Carbon Markets
