Machine learning analysis for the thermophoretic particle deposition in casson nanofluid with porous medium and heat generation

The aim of this work is to evaluate the impacts of heat generation on the radiative flow of Casson nanofluid over a sheet under LTNE circumstances while microbes are present, utilizing machine learning techniques based on the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm. A simple method for mov...

Polymer Coating Adhesion Drives Functional and Biological Outcomes in Meniscus Implants

Achieving stable integration of drug-releasing polymer coatings with load-bearing meniscus implants remains a challenge in biomaterials engineering. In this study, four surface modification strategies, femtosecond-pulsed laser treatment, oxygen plasma, polydopamine, and an ethyl-...

Hydrogen Production Performance of Industrial NiCrMo276 Electrodes in Alkaline Sulfide Electrolysis

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a toxic sulfur-containing by-product generated in refining, gas processing, and decomposition processes. Its electrochemical treatment under alkaline conditions offers a potential route for simultaneous hydrogen production and sulfide conversion. Althoug...

Hypoxia and right ventricular dysfunction in patients with acute pulmonary embolism

In patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE), hypoxia may increase pulmonary vascular resistance and worsen right ventricular dysfunction (RVD), which is a key prognostic factor. However, associations between hypoxia, RVD and clinical outcomes have not been well described. To d...

Finite pattern problems in infinite iterated function systems

Let { f n } n ≥ 1 be an infinite iterated function system on [ 0 , 1 ] and let Λ be its attractor. Then, any x ∈ Λ corresponds to a sequence of integers { a n ( x ) } n ≥ 1 , called the digit sequence of x , in the sense that x = lim n → ∞ ⁡ f a 1 ( x ) ∘ ⋯ ∘ f a n ( x ) ( 1 ) ....

Synthesis of the 10th Anniversary VORTEX-USA Workshop : A Decade of Tornado Research and Improving Societal Resilience

This white paper synthesizes the outcomes of the VORTEX-USA 10th Anniversary Workshop, held in Norman, Oklahoma, from March 30 to April 1, 2026. With an attendance of approximately 100 students and professionals from academic, research, outreach, and operational meteorological co...

A Complex‐Frequency Framework for Kerker Unidirectionality in Photonic Resonators

ABSTRACT Electromagnetic scattering exhibits various anomalous behaviors, such as forward or backward scattering effects known as the Kerker conditions. These anomalies appear in non‐Hermitian photonic resonators and are mathematically described by operators with complex eigenfre...

Long-term immunoprophylaxis by TLR9 ligand mediates macrophage-ILC cross-talk against respiratory viral infection

Rapid development of host immunity is critical during the emergence of viral outbreaks when vaccines are not yet available. Here, we demonstrate that CpG oligodeoxynucleotide-schizophyllan complex (K3-SPG) induces antigen-independent, long-term protection against lethal respirato...

Olfactory dysfunction among gas station employees exposed to fuel vapors using digital odor identification testing

Gas station employees are chronically exposed to fuel vapors containing benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX), and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs), raising occupational concerns about olfactory function. In this cross-sectional study, 116 Brazilian gas station...

The Impact of Negative Emotion on Visual Working Memory Under Excessive Cognitive Load: The Role of the Resource-Allocation Stage and Location Information

Visual working memory (VWM) enables people to temporarily store important information for use in subsequent tasks. Previous studies have indicated that a negative emotional state can influence the processing of VWM; however, the direction of this influence and its underlying cogn...

Impact of Occupant Behavior on Indoor Air Quality in Small Single-Person Households: A Field Study Using Low-Cost Sensors

Single-person households are among the fastest-growing housing types, exceeding 35% of all households in Korea, yet field evidence on their indoor environmental quality (IEQ) remains scarce. This study monitored temperature, relative humidity, PM2.5, PM10, and CO2 at 1-min interv...

Variable-Dimension Differential Evolution for Ring-Count-Optimized Sparse Concentric Ring Array Synthesis

This communication proposes a variable-dimension differential evolution (VDDE) algorithm for synthesizing uniform amplitude sparse concentric ring arrays (CRAs) with minimized peak sidelobe level (PSL). Different from conventional fixed-ring-count methods, the VDDE simultaneously...

β-Catenin Knockout in the Olfactory Bulb and Hippocampus Reveals Dual Roles in Olfactory Discrimination and Working Memory

Mice rely heavily on their sense of smell to provide crucial environmental information. The intricate organization of neural circuits within the olfactory bulb (OB) and the communication across the OB-hippocampus network in mice underpin their ability to discriminate and adapt to...

Prior preferences interfere with the associative learning of food values

Addressing unhealthy behaviors requires learning and implementing healthier options. Ecologically, we rarely undergo associative learning in naive environments; our prior preferences confound the learning process. This is perhaps especially true for food, for which we have strong...

Defining the Role of Staging Laparoscopy in the Management of the Gallbladder Cancers: A Single Institution Experience

ABSTRACT Introduction Despite advances in imaging and extensive staging work‐up, occult metastases may still be encountered at laparotomy in patients with apparently resectable gallbladder cancer (GBC), resulting in nontherapeutic surgery. This study evaluates the incremental yie...

Seeing What Matters: A Systematic Review of Aerial Person Detection for Drone-Based Search and Rescue

Drones have become critical tools in search and rescue (SAR) missions by providing real-time situation awareness and access to difficult terrain. However, operators must process large amounts of visual data under time pressure, creating significant cognitive demands. Object detec...

Hyaluronic Acid Microneedle With α‐Boswellic Acid Heal Oral Ulcers by Anti‐inflammatory Activity

OBJECTIVE: Conventional topical therapies for oral ulcers remain limited due to poor mucosal adhesion and rapid clearance by saliva. To overcome these challenges, we aimed to develop a microneedle patch with α-boswellic acid for targeted anti-inflammatory treatment of oral ulcers...

From industrial waste to energy storage: Si@C core-shell anodes derived from coal gasification fine slag for lithium-ion batteries

Coal gasification fine slag (CGFS) is a solid waste rich in inorganic components (over 60%, mainly SiO₂, Al₂O₃, and Fe₂O₃). Disposal of CGFS via landfilling and stockpiling leads to resource waste and environmental pollution, making effective valorization of this material a criti...
