Geometry-Conditioned Conformal Calibration for Guaranteed False-Alarm Control in Uncertain Nonlinear Photovoltaic Systems

A fault detector inside an active fault-tolerant loop drives an automatic action, so every false alarm commands a reconfiguration for a fault that is absent. In a photovoltaic (PV) plant the false-alarm rate has to be controlled within each operating regime, because the healthy u...

Landscape of Canadian Stroke Motor and Cognitive Rehabilitation Trials: Trends, Strengths and Future Directions

ABSTRACT This study aims to systematically identify and describe all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating post-stroke motor and cognitive rehabilitation conducted in Canada, within the broader context of global post-stroke rehabilitation research. The present secondary...

Heterogeneous Effects of Government Investment on SDG 9: Evidence From a Quantile Approach Across Development Levels

ABSTRACT This study investigates the relationship between government investment and Sustainable Development Goal 9 (SDG 9) performance, focusing on the distribution of SDG 9 performance. The study uses annual data from 70 countries, comprising 41 developing and 29 developed econo...

The Effect of Stimulant Medications on Symptom and Treatment Outcomes in Adults With Comorbid Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity and Substance Use Disorder: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Objective Symptoms of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are increasingly recognized among adults and frequently co-occur with substance use disorders (SUD). Changing guidelines and complexity of treatment merit a review of approaches for managing this diagnostic ove...

Surface EMG Wristbands for Gesture Recognition A Critical Review of Cost and Reproducibility

Surface electromyography (sEMG) offers a wearable route to gesture-based interaction by recording electrical activity associated with muscle activation. Translating laboratory recognition results into affordable, reproducible interfaces requires more than selecting an electrode m...

Aromatic Polyimine‐Derived Carbon Membranes for Efficient Hydrogen Separation

ABSTRACT Hydrogen is a key energy carrier for the transition toward sustainable energy systems, yet its widespread implementation relies on efficient and selective purification from mixed gas streams. Carbon membranes have emerged as promising candidates for hydrogen separation d...

Propagation of Perfect Laguerre Gaussian Beam in a Turbulent Atmosphere

Optical communication systems rely on reliable transmission of light through the atmosphere, yet atmospheric turbulence poses a significant challenge by introducing distortions and fluctuations that degrade signal quality. Perfect Laguerre–Gaussian (PLG) beams—a class of structur...

Olivine-hosted melt inclusions provide insights into primitive magma compositions driving young eruptions from Red Crater, Tongariro (New Zealand)

Abstract Volcanism at continental arcs is ultimately driven by mantle-derived magmas; however, erupted compositions are typically overprinted by crustal interactions during ascent, obscuring deeper signatures. We target olivine and their melt inclusions (MI) in basaltic andesite...

Sliding Ferroelectric Metals: An Emerging Frontier

ABSTRACT Sliding ferroelectric (FE) metals have emerged as a distinct paradigm in which interlayer sliding enables switchable out‐of‐plane polarization in a metallic state, overcoming the conventional incompatibility between FE switching and metallicity. This Perspective traces t...

Metal‐Free Synthesis of α,ω‐Dihydroxy Low‐Molecular‐Weight Poly(2,6‐Dimethyl‐1,4‐Phenylene Oxide) via Amine‐Catalyzed Redistribution

ABSTRACT Although poly (2,6‐dimethyl‐1,4‐phenylene oxide) (PPO) is a promising dielectric material, the conventionally produced PPO inevitably contains Cu(I) residues, which constrain its dielectric performances. In this work, a fully metal‐free route to prepare α,ω‐dihydroxy low...

Embodied Gathering: Integrating Performative Interactions and Knowledge-Driven Agents for Virtual Living Heritage

The core value of living cultural heritage lies in dynamic group interactions and contextually embedded rituals. However, traditional virtual reality (VR) heritage applications tend to emphasize high-fidelity spatial reconstruction, often failing to convey these deeper social fra...

E8-φ Acoustic Entanglement Protocol for Topological Qubits — E8 Intelligence Research

By coupling the 240 E8 root vectors through a φ‑scaled acoustic lattice at 132 Hz, a resonant entanglement network emerges that preserves topological qubit coherence. The golden‑ratio phase shifts between nearest‑neighbor modes generate a self‑consistent entanglement graph whose...

Management and outcomes of renal colic in pregnancy: A 10-year Australian tertiary centre experience

Objective: To describe the presentation, management and maternal-foetal outcomes of pregnant patients with symptomatic upper tract obstruction. Patients and methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed of pregnant patients managed for renal colic or symptomatic hydronephro...

Investigating the Use of Routine Swabs in Incision and Drainage of Abscesses: An Audit of Western Sydney Hospitals

ABSTRACT Background Incision and drainage of subcutaneous abscesses is a common surgical procedure. It is the standard of treatment, with or without adjunctive antibiotics. Interestingly, there exists a lack of evidence regarding the role of intraoperative sampling of the purulen...

Experiential stability and mobility justice: A qualitative study of accessibility and uncertainty in the Seoul Metropolitan Area

Background Many high-income metropolitan regions appear to provide extensive accessible transport infrastructure for people with disabilities. However, proximity-based and infrastructure compliance indicators may overestimate accessibility by overlooking how systems perform. This...

Antiferrodistortive Matrix Engineering Reprograms Polarization Pathways for Ultrahigh Energy Storage at Moderate Electric Fields

ABSTRACT Relaxor ferroelectrics (RFEs) are promising dielectric materials for pulsed multilayer ceramic capacitors because of their rapid polarization response. However, under practical electric fields, polarization rapidly approaches saturation as polar nanoregions exhaust their...

Blood flow restriction of sport-specific repeated-sprint training enhances acute physiological responses in elite female boxers: a randomized, crossover trial

This study investigated the acute physiological responses during sport-specific repeated sprint training with different levels at blood flow restriction (BFR) in elite boxing athletes. Sixteen female boxers participated in this randomized, cross-over study. All boxers conducted f...

Numerical investigation of nonlinear and chaotic dynamics in an erbium-doped fibre ring laser with low frequency cavity-loss modulation

Fibre lasers operating near threshold exhibit high sensitivity to external perturbation due to their intrinsic nonlinear dynamics. However, the dynamical behaviour under modulation is often accompanied by significant fluctuations in the output. The dynamics and bifurcations of er...
