An Optimization Framework for Automated and Human-Operated Fleet Routing
Abstract This paper presents a mathematical model to determine the optimal routes for a heterogeneous fleet comprising autonomous and human-driven vehicles operating in freight distribution. The model is formulated as a mixed-integer programming problem with multiple objectives:...

Deep-Subwavelength and Broadband Quarter-Wave Retardation in Ultrathin Hyperbolic MoOCl2
Abstract The miniaturization of polarization-controlling optical components is one of the central pursuits in nanophotonics. While traditional anisotropic materials require large propagation lengths to achieve the desired phase shifts, metasurfaces mitigate this size constraint b...

Growth of small localised perturbations in surface quasi-geostrophic turbulence
The butterfly effect, namely the amplification of an initially localised infinitesimal perturbation, is a fundamental hallmark of chaotic systems. While this phenomenon is well understood in low-dimensional chaotic systems, its implications become more complex in spatially extend...

Abstract Objective Levetiracetam (LEV) is an antiseizure medication approved for focal and generalized epilepsy. Despite its efficacy, neuropsychiatric adverse effects (NP‐AEs) may lead to treatment discontinuation. Quantitative electroencephalographic (qEEG) graph‐theoretical an...

Background: Camel husbandry underpins food security in drylands, and dromedary (Camelus dromedarius) milk is valued as a functional food whose composition is thought to be shaped by the desert forage that camels browse. Dietary plant microRNAs (miRNAs) have been proposed as one m...

Recurrence of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) remains a major clinical challenge in patients with diabetes. Therapeutic footwear is a cornerstone of secondary prevention as it reduces plantar pressure and mechanical stress. However, most available evidence focuses on traditional orthop...

Summary Venetoclax (VEN) plus hypomethylating agents (HMAs) represents the standard of care for newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) patients unfit for intensive chemotherapy, but prospective real‐world observational data outside randomized clinical trials remain limited...

Abstract When the follower problem in a bilevel program admits multiple optimal solutions, the leader’s outcome depends on how ties are resolved. This yields the classical optimistic/pessimistic ambiguity and makes the model unstable (ill-posed) from a predictive viewpoint. We st...
