Prestressed concrete hybrid-reinforced solid square (PCHSS) piles combine strands and rebars for improved ductility. This study presents large-scale shaking table tests (1:2 scale) on PCHSS pile–superstructure systems embedded in soft and stiff clay, subjected to four ground moti...

Circular microtextures with area densities of 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% were fabricated on TC4 titanium alloy surfaces and tested under dry sliding conditions against four counterpart balls of varying hardness (Brass, SUS304, AISI 52100, and K20). Through coefficient of friction (COF...

Structural Lemmas for the First-Prime Window of the Weil Quadratic Form
We prove six structural results for the local Weil quadratic form Q_W^L on L^2(-L,L) in the first-prime window (half*log2 < L < half*log3), the minimal interval where only the prime n=2 contributes to the Weil explicit formula. Our main technical contribution (Theorem 5.1) is an...

The winner–loser gap in democratic attitudes among politicians: Individual and collective outcomes
Abstract Rooted in concerns about losers’ consent to electoral outcomes, a vast literature documents a winner–loser gap in democratic attitudes among voters, with winners displaying systematically more positive attitudes than losers across a range of indicators. Surprisingly, we...

The molecular mechanisms by which KMT2A-rearranged (KMT2A-r) leukemias maintain the oncogenic FLT3 expression remain largely unclear, limiting therapeutic opportunities. Here, we identify the RNA binding protein MBNL1 as an unexpected positive regulator of FLT3 by DepMap dataset...

Fraud charges against OTP operator fuel dialogue on extent of problem
The U.S. Department of Justice's effort to combat fraud in federally funded health care programs has ensnared the operator of an Illinois methadone clinic accused of orchestrating millions of dollars in improper billing and diverting proceeds from Medicaid payments for personal u...

ABSTRACT A popular approach to interactive effects panel data models is the common correlated effects (CCE) estimator of Pesaran (Estimation and inference in large heterogeneous panels with a multifactor error structure. Econometrica 74 , 967–1012, 2006). The current paper propos...

Work-life balance in the Employment Rights Act: more of the same?
Work–life balance rights are in the odd position of being regularly legislated on and amended but rarely significantly changed. Every so often a new right, usually building on an existing one, is i...

The BioSynIRS trial: biologic versus synthetic mesh for multicompartment pelvic floor reconstruction
Abstract Background Selected patients with obstructed defecation syndrome (ODS) and concomitant pelvic organ prolapse (POP) may require laparoscopic resection rectopexy (L-RRP) with laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (L-SCP). This trial compared the safety and efficacy of biologic versu...

Comparative analysis of mental health among Austrian farmers and the general population
Although farmers face significant mental health challenges globally, no studies have explored this issue in German-speaking countries. This study is the first to assess the mental health of Austrian farmers, comparing their well-being to that of the general population. A cross-se...

Phi-Entropic Geometric Phase Locking in E8 Root Space — E8 Intelligence Research
By embedding a phi‑ratio phase modulation onto the 132 Hz base frequency, the 240 E8 root vectors self‑organize into discrete eigen‑phases that encode shared information as geometric phase. This creates a direct duality where entropy gradients map onto Kolmogorov complexity bound...

Unique GEP Pseudoscalar Found, Physical Chiral Anisotropy Not Yet Derived
Granular Entropic Physics (GEP) is being tested through the Stone-2 program as a sequence of bounded, pre-registered questions concerning the microscopic origin of chiral quantum matter. Stone 2A established a faithful Q8-linked proxy with a gapped irreducible Chern bulk and matc...

Exploring the Vertical Ocean: A Comparative Review of Behavioral Strategies Across Marine Predators
The ocean is a vertically structured environment in which physical and biological conditions change dramatically with depth, yet the exploitation of this three-dimensional habitat by marine predators has largely been investigated within isolated taxonomic groups rather than throu...

Myocardial infarction is a major cause of cardiovascular death and a key substrate for sudden cardiac death. Traditionally, histopathological analysis of infarction has focused on the temporal sequence of morphological changes, from coagulative necrosis to inflammatory infiltrate...
