Emergence of novel SARS-CoV-2 variants keeps slowing down

Abstract Background Although COVID-19 pandemic has no longer been classified as an international public health emergency of concern after May 2023, multiple variants with different characteristics keep emerging. Given the complex spatial-temporal characteristics of epidemics, res...

Encountered-Type 3D Haptic Shape Display by Simulating Finger–Object Contact Regions

Encountered-type pin-array shape displays allow users to freely explore a simulated shape using bare fingers. However, current pin-array shape displays are limited to discontinuous shapes or 2.5D shapes. Here, we propose a novel shape display principle to render touch feedback be...

Reading Confucian Ethics on the Façade: A Semiotic-Coding Framework for Guangfu Ancestral Halls Demonstrated on the Chen Clan Ancestral Hall

Confucian ethics are widely credited with shaping Guangfu ancestral halls, yet existing scholarship approaches their façades from two disconnected ends: macro-cultural studies treat the façade as an undifferentiated emblem of lineage order, while craft studies document individual...

High‐Performance Laser Engine Enabling Synchronous Chirp Linearization for Wavelength‐Resolved FMCW Photonic Systems

ABSTRACT Integrated frequency‐modulated continuous‐wave (FMCW) photonic devices provide a promising route toward compact, fully solid‐state LiDAR systems. By incorporating passive dispersive structures, wavelength‐resolved FMCW architectures further exploit wavelength as an addit...
