Initial stage of the 2D-3D transition of a strained SiGe layer on a pit-patterned Si(001) template

, 2006
We investigate the initial stage of the 2D-3D transition of strained Ge layers deposited on pit-patterned Si(001) templates. Within the pits, which assume the shape of inverted, truncated pyramids after optimized growth of a Si buffer layer, the Ge ...

Enhancing Podiatry Students' Understanding of Foot Arch Through Footprint Activity

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Understanding the structural anatomy and biomechanics of the foot arches is essential for podiatry students due to its clinical relevance in diagnosing conditions such as Pes Planus and Pes Cavus. The foot arches form a flexible base that supports body weight, absorbs shock and functions as a spring lever during activities such as ...

Comparative Analysis of Deep Learning‐Based Algorithms for Peptide Structure Prediction

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 3, Page 675-691, March 2026.
ABSTRACT While of primary importance in both the biomedical and therapeutic fields, peptides suffer from a relative lack of dedicated tools to predict efficiently and accurately their 3D structures despite being a crucial step in understanding their physio‐pathological function or designing new drugs. In recent years, deep‐learning methods have enabled

Spallative ablation of dielectrics by X-ray laser

, 2009
Short laser pulse in wide range of wavelengths, from infrared to X-ray, disturbs electron-ion equilibrium and rises pressure in a heated layer. The case where pulse duration $\tau_L$ is shorter than acoustic relaxation time $t_s$ is considered in the ...

Hometown Glory – the Benefits of Location‐Specific Capital for Labour Market Outcomes of Vocational Education Graduates

Population, Space and Place, Volume 32, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Migration is often associated with favourable labour market outcomes, particularly among higher educated individuals. This paper shifts the focus to the benefits of staying by examining how location‐specific capital shapes labour market outcomes for middle‐skilled vocational education graduates. Using longitudinal register data from Statistics

Deriving Long‐Term Operating Rules for Cascade Hydropower Plants Compensating for Short‐Term Uncertainties in Wind and Solar Power Generation

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Hydropower offers both regulation and scale advantages that can respond to the substantial grid flexibility requirements arising from the integration of variable renewable energy (VRE). However, its short‐term regulatory capability heavily depends on long‐term operating rules, which largely overlook short‐term grid flexibility needs.

A Topic Testlet Model for Calibrating Testlet Constructed Responses

Journal of Educational Measurement, Volume 63, Issue 1, Spring 2026.
Abstract Constructed responses (CRs) within testlets are widely used to assess complex skills but can pose calibration challenges due to local item dependence. A few current testlet models incorporate testlet‐specific effects to address local dependence but struggle with interpreting these effects and may not fully capture the complexities of CR items ...
