Overshooting of Hypoplastic Models With Intergranular Strain: Manifestation, Implications and Remedy
International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Intergranular strain extensions of hypoplasticity (IGS, ISA, GIS) are widely used to model small‐strain and cyclic soil behaviour. However, recent studies and our own simulations reveal that these models can exhibit stress overshooting not only under repeated small loading cycles but also during monotonic loading.

Stop Using Limiting Stimuli as a Measure of Sensitivities of Energetic Materials
Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Accurately estimating the sensitivity of explosive materials is a potentially life‐saving task that requires standardised protocols across nations. One of the most widely applied procedures worldwide is the so‐called ‘1‐In‐6’ test from the United Nations (UN) Manual of Tests in Criteria, which estimates a ‘limiting stimulus’ for a material. In

On convergence in G_Q metric spaces
Dera Natung Government College Research JournalThis paper reviews some basic aspects and proposes and explores the idea of convergence for triple sequences in G_Q-metric space. Furthermore, a thorough analysis and definition of statistical convergence in this context are provided.

Multi‐Platform Deployments of Low‐Cost Devices for Cetacean Passive Acoustic Monitoring
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Recent advances in affordable, user‐friendly devices offer new opportunities to overcome cost constraints of underwater passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) and expand acoustic data collection. In this study, we deployed low‐cost acoustic recorders and underwater cameras across a range of platforms in the Western Mediterranean, including fishing gear ...

A new smooth failure criterion for concrete inspired by Lubliner's condition
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract A new failure criterion with 10 parameters is proposed, based on Lubliner's idea of joining two Drucker–Prager cones. The novelty lies in the way of introducing deviatoric shape variation: through two Podgórski's functions. This feature allows for improving plane stress cross‐section's compatibility with experimental data.

High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The breathing system of an oil‐immersed transformer is of vital importance for maintaining equilibrium between internal and external pressures, with any malfunction potentially disrupting the transformer's stable operation. This study develops a thermal–fluid–structure interaction (TFSI) model to simulate the breathing phenomenon in a 110 kV ...

State of the Field: Royal Studies and Court Studies
History, EarlyView.Abstract Monarchy, as the world's oldest and most enduring form of political organization, is an area that has attracted the attention of scholars from a range of disciplines. Two connected and complementary fields embody this interdisciplinary study of monarchy and monarchies: royal studies, which takes an all‐encompassing approach to monarchy, and ...

Statistical convergence within octonion metric structures
Dera Natung Government College Research JournalThis paper investigates statistical convergence and completeness within the framework of octonion-valued metric spaces (OVMSs). By equipping the algebra of octonions with a suitable partial order, we extend classical notions of convergence, Cauchy ...

Geometric overdispersion facilitates the integration of ecological data
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Statistical data integration facilitates inference based on the variety of data prevalent in ecology. In particular, integrated distribution models (IDMs) have been proposed for inferring spatial patterns in abundance using combinations of noisy count, presence–absence and presence–only data.

Annals of Public and Cooperative Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Smallholder market participation studies often focus narrowly on selling decisions, overlooking the institutional role of agricultural cooperatives, particularly in contexts like Rwanda, where cooperatives underpin agricultural policy. Consequently, empirical evidence on how cooperative membership shapes farmers’ commercialization across ...
