Symmetry‐Guided Multifunctional Acoustic System Based on Mechanically Actuated Sonic Crystals

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents the design, simulation, and experimental validation of amultifunctional acoustic metamaterial based on rotationally engineered sonic crystals.By tuning cylinder orientations, controllable band gaps and six distinct functionalities—including switching, topological insulation, beam splitting, and logic operations—areachieved ...

Interpretable Machine Learning Framework for Nb─Si Based Alloy Design with Enhanced Fracture Toughness

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An interpretable machine learning framework integrating SHAP and PDP analysis identifies critical design descriptors from 139 physicochemical features for Nb─Si alloys. The framework achieves <7% prediction error and guides the discovery of Nb38.5Ti38.5Si3Zr18V2 alloy with 22.791 MPa·m1/2 fracture toughness, breaking the 20 MPa·m1/2 barrier.

Accounting for animal health in efficiency analysis: An application to Swedish dairy farms

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Poor animal health is a central concern in modern livestock production. Despite the necessity to incorporate animal health in efficiency analysis, the theoretical and empirical developments are limited on this subject. This article appropriately characterizes the axiomatic properties of animal health within a production framework.

“You just want to re‐open our biggest wounds, don't you?”: Homeplace ethnography as (polluted) environmental method

Feminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract When I was 12, my family told me a story about their community falling apart and coming together, a time when someone tried putting a nuclear facility in their (our?) hometown. Since we moved when I was too young to remember, the story had little significance until I embarked on a “hometown” ethnographic journey for my dissertation.

Are All “Good” Employees Susceptible to Moral Biases? Exceptional (Versus Intermediate) Moral Character Shapes Resilience to Daily “DIAMONDS” Situations That Trigger Moral Disengagement

Journal of Organizational Behavior, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The non‐rationalist view of morality holds that all employees—including “good” apples—are liable to do bad because they are susceptible to moral biases in everyday situational encounters. In contrast, the rationalist or trait view suggests that employees with strong moral character should be resilient against moral biases across situations and

Machine Learning for Thermodynamic States of Notional Nonideal Energetic Mixtures

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
. ABSTRACT Currently, modeling the thermodynamic states in the reaction zone of a detonating energetic mixture entails iteratively solving a set of coupled differential equations that require detailed material property information or models whose empirical parameters must be physically measured.

An Innovative Approach to Multi‐Valued Logic

IEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, EarlyView.
The current generation of computer systems operates on the principles of binary logic, which encompasses both logical and arithmetic operations. However, silicon technology has reached its peak performance, prompting researchers to explore alternative methods for enhancing computational efficiency. One such method is the adoption of Multi‐Valued Logic (

The Contested Grounds of Democracy's Noninstrumental Value: Deliberative Democracy Versus Public Equality

Constellations, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disagreement about democracy's noninstrumental value often sees the opposition between two competing approaches. Liberty‐based arguments assign normative priority to a principle of liberty, thereby focusing on democratic self‐government as the core principle through which political authority can be reconciled with individual liberty.

The Constellation: A Reappraisal of Walter Benjamin's Influence on Theodor W. Adorno

Constellations, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the 1920s and 1930s, Walter Benjamin and Theodor W. Adorno both sought to develop a notion of Darstellung—of philosophical presentation or representation—that could provide an alternative to the classically idealist tendency to subsume objects under abstract concepts.

John Gray: ‘Americanism’ and the Perversion of Post‐liberalism

The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This article will make the case for John Gray's inclusion in the canon of post‐liberals despite his protests to the contrary, and will argue that his peculiar post‐liberalism is important for its challenges to the dominance of liberalism as both a political culture and way of theorising the ends of politics based on the model of the American ...
