A Scoping Review and Bibliometric Analysis on Smart Firefighting in Buildings and Infrastructures

open access: yesFire and Materials, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 145-173, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Smart Firefighting is a concept that has emerged within the fire engineering and fire science disciplines in recent years. It can enable informed decision making and improved fire safety. However, its scope, definition, outcomes, and value to emergency management remain unclear. To investigate this, a scoping review and a bibliometric analysis

Shuttle landing facility cloud cover study: Climatological analysis and two tenths cloud cover rule evaluation [PDF]

open access: yes
The two-tenths cloud cover rule in effect for all End Of Mission (EOM) STS landings at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) states: 'for scattered cloud layers below 10,000 feet, cloud cover must be observed to be less than or equal to 0.2 at the de-orbit burn

Building Treatment and Its Effects on City‐Scale Urban Flood Modeling

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Physics‐based flood hydrodynamic models are widely used for predicting inundation in urban basins with complex building layouts. While the treatment of urban buildings in these models has been extensively discussed, over‐assumptions can introduce inaccuracies, uncertainties, and excessive computational effort, particularly under data‐scarce ...

In Situ Liquid‐Cell Transmission Electron Microscopy Insights Into Lithium‐Ion Battery Materials Degradation: Challenges and Emerging Solutions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.
Lithium‐ion battery degradation arises from complex, localized processes during operation, limiting long‐term performance. In situ electrochemical liquid cell TEM provides unique access to these mechanisms. This review summarizes degradation phenomena revealed by liquid cell TEM, traces the evolution of the three main cell designs, compares their ...

Predicting Autism Spectrum Disorder in Children Using Glowworm Optimization With Extreme Learning Machine Networks

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
The proposed framework for ASD detection has been illustrated. The process begins with dataset collection and preprocessing, followed by feature selection and hyperparameter optimization using GSO. The optimized features are classified through an ELM classifier, yielding high accuracy, fast convergence, and low computational cost for reliable ASD ...

Body surface temperatures as biomarkers of physiological environmental adaptation in wild birds and mammals

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 336-363, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The ability of individuals to cope with their environment, and therefore the likelihood that they survive and pass on their genes (i.e. fitness), is largely determined by physiological state. Tracking physiological state in wild animals, however, is challenging.

Convective injection and photochemical decay of peroxides in the tropical upper troposphere: Methyl iodide as a tracer of marine convection [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The convective injection and subsequent fate of the peroxides H2O2 and CH3OOH in the upper troposphere is investigated using aircraft observations from the NASA Pacific Exploratory Mission-Tropics A (PEM-Tropics A) over the South Pacific up to 12 km ...
