Mechanical Performances of CFRP Rods Under Tension‐Bending Load: Experimental and Theoretical Analysis

ABSTRACT Carbon fiber‐reinforced polymer (CFRP) rods with the advantages of lightweight, high strength, corrosion, and fatigue resistant have a promising application prospect in the field of engineering structures. Due to the lack of mechanical performances and theoretical predic...

Correlation-Aware Scenario Reduction for Wind-Power and Load Uncertainties via Density Denoising and Temporally Ordered Clustering

The increasing penetration of wind-power introduces pronounced uncertainty and variability into modern renewable energy systems, while electric load exhibits strong temporal continuity and seasonal evolution. Directly using full-year chronological wind–load data in planning or op...

Human-Robot Collaboration and Organizational Citizenship Behavior: The Psychological and Emotional Mediating Pathways

The accelerated integration of robotics within the manufacturing sector has facilitated enhanced work efficiency and reduced resource consumption among employees. How will employees utilize these resources saved by robots? Will they reinvest these resources into the organization...

Microstructure Uniformity and Mechanical Property Fluctuations in Large-Size Ti-46Al-8Nb-2.5V Ingot with β Solidification Mode

A large-size ingot (Φ200 mm × 800 mm) with the nominal composition Ti-46Al-8Nb-2.5V (in at.%) was fabricated via triple vacuum consumable electrode arc remelting in this study. XRD, SEM-EDS, TEM, tensile testing, and chemical analysis were employed to examine phase composition, m...

Grinding Metamorphic Layer of Bearing Steel: Formation Mechanisms, Characterization, and Process Parameter Effects

Grinding is the final precision machining step for bearing rings, which induces subsurface gradients in microstructure and mechanical properties. Rolling contact fatigue life and service reliability are directly determined by the gradients. Current research of the grinding metamo...

Collaborative Optimization of Dynamic Characteristics and Armature Structural Safety in Electromagnetic Repulsion Mechanisms

As a driving mechanism, the electromagnetic repulsion mechanism has been widely used in mechanical switches, such as circuit breakers, current limiters, and bypass switches, owing to its high closing speed and large output force. The dynamic characteristics and structural safety...

Achieving Synergistic Kinetics and Stability in Li‐Rich Mn‐Based Oxides via AlPO 4 ‐Assisted Multi‐Scale Regulation

ABSTRACT Realizing the full potential of Li‐rich Mn‐based oxides (LRMOs) is contingent upon overcoming the intrinsic conflict between sluggish anionic redox kinetics and structural instability. Conventional modification approaches often fail to harmonize kinetic enhancement with...

Smart Urban Agriculture in Transition: A Systematic Review of ICT Integration, Applications, and Challenges

This paper systematically reviews the emerging field of smart urban agriculture, defined as the integration of information and communication technologies (ICTs) into food production practices within and around built-up urban areas. Although urban agriculture and digital agricultu...

Stabilized Strength Development and Enhanced Heavy Metal Solidification in Alkali-Activated MSWIFA via Biochar Incorporation

Abstract This study employed biochar (BC) as an additive in a ternary system comprising municipal solid waste incineration fly ash (MSWIFA), slag, and BC to evaluate its effects on mechanical strength, hydration, and heavy metal immobilization. The results indicate that water was...

Differential genomic architecture of a ligand-receptor pair in humans and commonly used model organisms

The neuropeptide signaling pathway is vital for the physiology and behavior of multicellular organisms. This pathway is mediated by ligand-receptor binding, wherein neuropeptides (NPs) are often released from neurons, while their receptors (NPRs) are ubiquitously expressed in bot...

Manipulatable Cascade Pumping Single-Photon Upconversion

Photon upconversion (UC), while promising for infrared photonics, is fundamentally constrained by limited spectral response range, low efficiency, and slow response speeds. Here, we present a machine learning-guided single-photon UC strategy based on cascade pumping that implemen...

Institutional hiring strategies and research performance: alumni versus non-alumni faculty in business schools

Faculty recruitment strategies, particularly the debate over hiring alumni versus non-alumni candidates, represent a longstanding concern in higher education management. This study investigates whether alumni or non-alumni faculty achieve superior research performance, drawing on...

Adaptive intrathecal nanorobotics in mice and nonhuman primates for navigated CNS therapy

Intrathecal delivery for central nervous system (CNS) therapy lacks spatiotemporal control due to spinal canal anatomical constraints, especially at human scale. We developed an adaptive magnetic nanorobotic platform enabling multimode swarm mobility for in vivo spinal canal navi...

AI collaboration and quality of work life: a dual perspective of hotel employees’ perceptions

Purpose The growing prevalence of artificial intelligence (AI) integration in hotel services underscores the urgency of promptly analyzing hotel employees’ appraisals on AI collaboration. Drawing from the cognitive appraisal theory (CAT), we developed a dual-path model linking em...
