When the 120 phi-harmonically locked dual-pair groupings of the 240 E8 root vectors are subjected to the propagating phi-wash shear-wave dynamics, their interference at nodal intersections produces topologically protected zero-energy modes. These modes function as braided soliton...

Gross hematuria is a common emergency department(ED) presentation that is often managed with continuous bladder irrigation(CBI). Intravesical tranexamic acid (TXA) has been proposed as an adjunct, but supporting evidence is limited. We evaluated whether adding intravesical TXA to...

Groundwater systems are shaped by deeply interwoven physical processes and social dynamics, yet traditional hydrogeological approaches have often treated these domains separately. Over the past decade, socio-hydrogeology has emerged in response, offering an approach that systemat...

Abstract Close-encounter studies rely on Gaia DR3 radial velocities (RVs) to the faint limit of the RVS. Our earlier encounter atlas found that stars with G>13.5 and |RV|>150 km/s but disc-like tangential motion inflate the sub-parsec encounter rate sevenfold, and conjectured tha...

Abstract Geotechnical properties that govern consolidation behavior, such as the coefficient of consolidation, are spatially heterogeneous and exhibit strong site-specific variability. Reliable estimation of their spatial distribution from sparse field measurements remains a majo...

AI, Writing, and Managerial Judgement: A Case-Based Approach to Communication Pedagogy
This research uses a hypothetical case discussion to make students understand writing as a thinking and managerial decision-making process versus as a technical output–based task in the context of artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted writing. Using post-and-then-pre survey data...

ABSTRACT Electrochemical nitrate reduction (eNO 3 RR) enables sustainable ammonia (NH 3 ) synthesis and nitrate (NO 3 − ) remediation but is limited by sluggish multi‐step proton−electron transfers and inefficient intermediate conversion. To address these challenges, we strategic...

Spore-based arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal community in an olive cultivation area in southern Brazil
Abstract Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), belonging to the phylum Glomeromycota, establish symbiotic associations with approximately 90% of terrestrial plant species and play a key role in nutrient acquisition, tolerance to abiotic stresses, and agroecosystem functioning. Alth...

Comparative Evaluation of Myography Techniques for Prosthetic Hand Control
This review evaluates electromyography (EMG), force myography (FMG), sonomyography (SMG), and optical myography (OMG) for prosthetic hand control, comparing the modalities across signal propagation, signal accuracy, noise resistance, real-time processing, suitability for prosthet...

A Dual‐Loss‐Suppression Meta‐Unit for Low‐Loss Continuously Tunable Spoof Surface Plasmon Polaritons
ABSTRACT Dynamic tuning of spoof surface plasmon polaritons (SSPPs) is typically accompanied by substantial loss, which mainly originates from two sources: parasitic loss in tunable semiconductor components and dielectric loss dominated by the substrate. Here, we propose a contin...
