Numerical Laminate Screening of Pin-Loaded CFRP Driveshaft Joints Using Progressive Damage Analysis and Multi-Criteria Evaluation

Carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) driveshafts offer significant lightweight potential, but the performance of pin-loaded joints is strongly affected by laminate architecture. To support laminate selection beyond peak strength alone, a numerical screening framework combining...

Gender and Obstetric Violence in Britain, ca. 1750–1830

ABSTRACT Obstetric violence is a form of gendered violence experienced by pregnant and birthing people, particularly women, during medical care provided in the hospital, clinic or home. Recent scholarship has explored how obstetric violence and obstetric racism manifested histori...

Pre-control scheme generation for extreme-weather power imbalance risk using multi-resource frequency regulation and deep reinforcement learning

To address the power imbalance risk between renewable energy output and load demand under extreme weather conditions, this paper proposes a pre-control scheme generation method based on the integration of multiple frequency regulation resources and deep reinforcement learning. Fi...

Mapping the Tissue Architecture and Endothelial‐ PEC Network in HAML Using Single‐Cell and Spatial Transcriptomics

ABSTRACT Hepatic angiomyolipoma (HAML) is a rare variant of perivascular epithelioid cell neoplasms (PEComas). Unlike its more common renal angiomyolipoma (RAML), the unique spatial microenvironment of HAML and its specific progression mechanisms remain poorly characterized. Here...

Predicting and optimizing energy efficiency in buildings: a multi-output machine learning framework with explainability and constrained optimization

Purpose Nine multi-output regression models were compared for simultaneous HL and CL prediction, supplemented by domain-informed feature engineering, SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP explainability), robustness testing and a calibrated physics baseline comparison. The best-per...

High-resolution binding data of TFIID and cofactors show promoter-specific differences

Abstract TFIID is instrumental in recognizing promoter sequences and initiating transcription, yet a cohesive understanding of how this complex engages and functions at different promoter types in vivo is still lacking. Here, we employed ChIP-nexus to capture high-resolution bind...

Improved estimation of net ecosystem CO 2 exchange over North America using LSTM-based flux upscaling (2001–2021)

Accurate estimation of regional-scale terrestrial carbon budgets is of great importance but remains challenging. With particular advantages, the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network method shows potential for improving regional carbon budget upscaling estimations. Here, using LS...

Changes in Clinical Practice and Role Perceptions of Clinical Nurse Specialists Following the Expanded Nursing Practice Pilot Project in Korea

Background: A nationwide resident physician strike in Korea led to a pilot project expanding nursing practice. During this period, clinical nurse specialists (CNSs) assumed expanded clinical support roles. However, evidence describing changes in CNS practice is limited. Purpose:...

Probing Lorentz symmetry violation and topological defects in Euler-Heisenberg black hole through shadows, scalar perturbations, and thermodynamics

In this work, we study a charged black hole incorporating Euler-Heisenberg nonlinear electrodynamics, a global monopole, and spontaneous Lorentz-symmetry breaking generated by a Kalb-Ramond tensor field. We analyze the effects of the model parameters on the spacetime geometry, ph...

Before the Manosphere: patriarchal sexual scripts in Spanish adolescent discourse and the failure of relationships and sexuality education

In 2016, the sexoaffective discourse of 149 Spanish secondary school students in Gran Canaria already contained the constitutive elements of what is now called the manosphere: the binary classification of women along patriarchal lines, pornography as the main pedagogy of sexualit...

Virtual Rain v1.0: a unified toolkit for high-resolution rainfall simulation and disaggregation

Stochastic simulation models are essential for investigating hydrological processes and supporting water resource management. In this study, we introduce Virtual Rain, a software toolkit that first generates synthetic daily rainfall time series and then disaggregates them to a us...

Arm-Strengthening Intervention Program During Radiation Treatment in Breast Cancer: A Prospective Cohort Study

Introduction: Radiation therapy is a critical component of breast cancer treatment; however, it is frequently accompanied by a decline in shoulder strength and function that can impair daily activities and limit long-term recovery. Although exercise can improve physical function...

Protocol for quantifying chromatin DNA replication by multiplex labeling and single-molecule localization microscopy

We present a protocol for imaging and quantifying chromatin DNA replication-associated signals in synchronized mammalian cells. We describe steps for cell-cycle enrichment, nucleoside analog-based metabolic labeling, and fluorescence detection. We then detail the procedure for du...

Genetic Investigation of Pregnancies With an Isolated Fetal Pelvic Kidney

ABSTRACT Objective To explore genetic investigative results in fetuses with isolated pelvic kidney. Methods This was a retrospective study of 212 fetuses with isolated pelvic kidney diagnosed on second trimester anatomy ultrasound. All cases underwent invasive prenatal diagnosis...

The social cost of high performance: interactive effects of task interdependence and perceived need for power

Purpose Noting that prior research on the social costs of high performance has largely treated coworker mistreatment as discretionary and driven by comparative emotions such as envy and threat, this study examines how social interpretations about high performers shape coworker re...

Comparative chloroplast genomics of Medicago: codon usage bias, purifying selection, and phylogenomics

Medicago sativa subsp. falcata (yellow-flowered alfalfa) is an essential genetic resource for forage improvement, biofuel production, and sustainable agriculture. Its superior cold tolerance and drought resistance, compared with common alfalfa, make it suitable for cultivation in...

The transparency paradox: managing access to research materials under freedom of information (FOI) legislation

Abstract This article examines how researchers and university archivists understand and manage requests for access to research materials as public records. While informal sharing and open science have attracted considerable scholarly attention, much less is known about legally ma...

Establishing a Routine Teleconsultation Follow‐Up Clinic in a Tertiary Care Hospital of a Low‐Middle‐Income Country: An Operational Blueprint and Implementation Experience

ABSTRACT Literature on teleconsultation is rich in outcome data, and only a smaller body of work has described the operational setup of specific teleconsultation services, mainly from the COVID‐era. However, publications on a routine, non‐pandemic, low‐cost, and asynchronous depa...
