Age‐Specific Survival Estimation of a Eurasian Crane Population Highlights a Long‐Term Decline in Juvenile Survival

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
The Eurasian crane (Grus grus), a symbol of conservation success in Europe, has made an impressive recovery. However, our results show that over the study period, juvenile survival declined by almost 30% overall, while sub‐adults experienced a smaller decrease, and adults showed no change.

Research of indicators of pendular fluctuations of the freight moved with the bridge crane with the relay drive

open access: yesВестник СибАДИ, 2017
The studies were obtained depending the angle of deflection of the bridge crane hoist rope from the vertical, and the rate of change of the angle of the acceleration of time and the accelerated movement of the point of suspension of cargo.

Mapping Quantum Computing Techniques for NP‐Hard Problems in Operations Management and Operations Research

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Quantum computing techniques such as Quantum Annealing and Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization are effectively solving NP‐hard problems in operations management and research, particularly in logistics, manufacturing, and finance. This study maps these applications to present a framework for future adoption across industries. ABSTRACT This study

Decentralized Wind Energy Systems as Catalysts for Urban Resilience: A Design Framework

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 682-700, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Confronting the escalating extreme weather events (EWEs) and intensifying winds, this study proposes an active response to these issues by exploring decentralized wind energy production for Peng Chau Island, Hong Kong. It integrates theoretical perspectives on energy democracy—empowering local communities through energy autonomy—and urban ...

The Relationship Between Depression and Coping Insight Dimensions in the Transition to Motherhood

open access: yesStress and Health, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The transition to motherhood is a period of psychological vulnerability but also offers important opportunities to refine and strengthen resilience capacities that support long‐term mental health. The Systematic Self‐Reflection Model of Resilience Strengthening proposes dynamic, reciprocal relationships between self‐reflection, coping insight,

Non destructive examination of composite structures using dielectric examination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Dielectric measurements are widely used in the laboratory to probe the dynamics of molecules, particularly the dynamics of polymer molecules. The dielectric technique exploits the fact that many molecules, although electrically neutral posses an ...

Drying suppresses fine root production to 1 m depths and alters root traits in four distinct tropical forests

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1992-2009, February 2026.
Summary Drying and drought in tropical forests, which have some of the highest net primary productivity on Earth, are likely to alter root dynamics, ecosystem function, and carbon (C) storage. We used a chronic drying experiment in four lowland Panamanian forests to investigate whether soil drying shifts tropical forest root production from surface to ...

Structures of Labor Exploitation: Sociology, Management, and Modern Slavery in the Global North

open access: yesSociology Compass, Volume 20, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Forced labor and precarious working conditions are increasingly visible in high‐income economies of the Global North. Mostly perpetrated by the private business sector, immigrant workers are disproportionately affected. However, most management literature has focused on labor exploitation and human rights abuses connected to global supply ...
