Interdiction Models and Heuristics for Graph Propagation

Networks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Given a graph G=(V,E)$$ G=\left(V,E\right) $$ and a set S⊂V$$ S\subset V $$ of activated/infected nodes, we consider the problem of determining the set of c$$ c $$ nodes that minimizes the network propagation on the subgraph that results from the removal of those c$$ c $$ nodes. To measure network propagation, we assume that a node i$$ i $$ is

Improve the Thermal Conductivity, Insulation Performance and Mechanical Properties of Silicone Rubber by Constructing EG‐PDA‐Cu Hybrid Nanoparticles

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
In this work, a novel expanded graphite‐supported nano‐copper polydopamine composite was designed and synthesized. The procedure involved first modifying EG via a mussel‐inspired technique to deposit a polydopamine coating, after which Cu2+ ions were reduced to immobilize copper nanoparticles onto the EG‐PDA substrate.

Agricultural and environmental drivers of variation in the composition of food crops: A scoping review

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Agricultural management and environmental conditions influence the biochemical composition of food crops; however, the specific drivers of this variation remain insufficiently understood, despite their importance for climate change adaptation and human health.

Sustainability Across the Curriculum: Sharing Ideas From a Cross‐Canada Community of Practice

New Directions for Teaching and Learning, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This chapter offers a “look‐back” one year after the formation of a Canadian sustainability education community of practice, and provides highlights of “sustainability across the curriculum” work that is taking place at Canadian Post‐Secondary Institutions, modeling benefits and challenges of cross‐campus organizing around sustainability ...

Mineral Oil‐Induced Ageing Characteristics of Aluminium Nitride‐Doped Silicone Rubber Nanocomposites

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Room temperature vulcanised (RTV) silicone rubber, commonly used as an external insulating coating on ceramic bushings of oil‐immersed transformers, undergoes significant degradation when exposed to mineral oil under harsh environmental conditions.

Postcode‐Level Variation and Environmental Determinants of Respiratory Allergies in a Large German Cohort

Allergy, EarlyView.
Young children (0–9 years) and residents of urban areas appeared particularly vulnerable to respiratory allergy development and exacerbation. Incidence showed nonlinear associations with PM10, PM2.5, temperature, and alder/birch pollen, while DPMR showed similar patterns, except for NO2 and the interaction O3*NO2.

Wet etching and infrared absorption of AlN bulk single crystals

, 2009
The defects and the lattice perfection of an AlN (0001) single crystal grown by the physical vapor transport (PVT) method were investigated by wet etching, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and infrared absorption, respectively.

Quantitative Metrics for Edge Bundling of Network Visualizations

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Edge bundling is widely used for reducing visual clutter in large 2D network and trajectory visualizations. Various edge bundling methods have been proposed, each producing qualitatively distinct outputs for the same data; however, few quantitative metrics exist for systematic evaluation. In this paper, we propose a set of quantitative metrics
