Optimization in Conceptual Design of a BWB UAV Using an Adaptive Kriging‐Based Surrogate Model
Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.An adaptive Kriging‐based framework for Blended Wing Body UAV optimization is presented. The exploitation‐oriented strategy yields a 14.5% range improvement, while sensitivity analysis identifies fuel mass as the dominant parameter for efficient conceptual design. ABSTRACT To improve optimization efficiency in the conceptual design of Blended Wing Body

Drone‐Assisted Organ Transport: A Scoping Review of Clinical, Regulatory, and System Readiness
Clinical Transplantation, Volume 39, Issue 12, December 2025.ABSTRACT Organ transport remains a critical determinant of transplant success, with delays during transfer prolonging cold ischemia time (CIT) and increasing the risk of delayed graft function or organ discard. Uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) have emerged as a potential means to enhance the speed, predictability, and resilience of transplant logistics.
