Design and optimization of a novel diaphragm-hinge lever FBG sensor for high-pressure measurement

Addressing the challenges of wide measurement range and high sensitivity in pressure testing for high-pressure pipelines, this paper proposes and develops a novel fiber Bragg grating (FBG) high-pressure sensor based on a composite sensitizing structure of a pressure-sensing metal...

Tetranuclear Cluster-Based Luminescent Metal-Organic Framework as Robust Chemical Sensor toward Phenylglyoxylic Acid Biomarker in Bodily Fluids

Abstract Phenylglyoxylic acid (PGA) is widely established as a core urinary biomarker for assessing human exposure to styrene (SM) and ethylbenzene (EB), and developing reliable luminescent sensors carries critical practical significance for occupational health monitoring. In thi...

Grid-Forming Control Technologies for Cascaded H-Bridge Power Conversion Systems

The increasing penetration of renewable energy is driving power systems toward low-inertia and weak-grid operation, increasing the need for power conversion systems (PCSs) with active voltage and frequency support. Grid-forming (GFM) control enables converters to establish voltag...

Effects of Unilateral Versus Bilateral Training on Physical Performance Outcomes in Team Sport Athletes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the comparative effects of unilateral versus bilateral training on physical performance outcomes relevant to team sport athletes. The review addresses strength, power, speed, agility, reactive strength, and core stabil...

Convergence Analysis and Error Propagation of the Laplace Residual Power Series Method for Linear Delay Matrix Differential Equations

Matrix differential equations with time delay are crucial to the modeling of complex multivariate systems. However, the existing semi-analytic Laplace residual power series method (LRPSM) literature mainly focuses on scalar or no-delay problems, and lacks rigorous theoretical gua...

OpenAsset: A Pipeline for Open-World Asset Integration into Indoor Scene Synthesis

Text-driven 3D indoor scene synthesis has witnessed significant progress through Large Language Model (LLM)-based frameworks like ReSpace. However, current paradigms heavily rely on retrieving objects from pre-defined, static 3D asset libraries, which fundamentally constrains the...

Failing the silicon: technology choice in complementary assets discontinuity

Purpose This study aims to explore how managerial contextual factors influence incumbent firms' technology choice in betting on inferior technology trajectories when facing complementary assets discontinuity – a contingency that has not been widely explored in previous research....
