International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Safety‐critical control remains a major challenge for four‐wheel independently steered and driven (4ISD) mobile robots, where high‐accuracy path tracking and obstacle avoidance must be achieved under over‐actuated steering–driving coordination, tire–ground friction limits, and wheel‐torque constraints.

Sliding Mode Control and Observation for Upper Limb Robotics Rehabilitation
International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Stroke is a leading cause of upper limb motor impairments, which often require rehabilitation. General purpose robotic manipulators enable effective therapy through exercises such as Center Out Point‐to‐Point (CO‐PTP) and Teach‐and‐Track (TT), which respectively demand accurate estimation and rejection of the interaction force exerted by the ...

, 2015 Two major political trends since the end of the Cold War have been the ongoing spread of democracy over autocracy as a form of government, and the growing prominence of intrastate rather than interstate forms of violent conflict. Between them, these countervailing forces defined world politics for much of the post-Cold War period.

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Marine operations traditionally rely on human intervention, a costly and disruptive method. Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) offer a powerful alternative, capable of operating autonomously, for extended periods, and with various sensors for various missions.

Navigating the Digital Capital Paradox: Whether and How It Impacts Export Intensity
British Journal of Management, EarlyView.Abstract Established firms are making substantial investments in digital capital (DC) – that is, capitalized software and systems – to enhance exports, yet they often face perplexing, even negative returns. We argue that this tension reflects an inherent resource–liability paradox, where DC acts simultaneously as a strategic resource and an operational

The Perils of Proportional Representation for Ethnic Minorities
The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.Abstract Two arguments about ethnic minorities run through the debate over replacing first past the post. One promises that proportional representation would represent minorities better; the other worries that it would empower the parties they have most reason to fear. This article argues that the promise is unreliable and the worry real.

Interventional oncology in children: Where are we now?
Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.Abstract Paediatric Interventional Oncology (IO) lags behind adult IO due to a scarcity of specific outcome data. The suboptimal way to evolve this field is relying heavily on adult experiences. The distinct tumour types prevalent in children, such as extracranial germ cell tumours, sarcomas, and neuroblastoma, differ strongly from those found in ...

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Blood vascular permeability is a hallmark of cancer and acts as an active driver of metastatic dissemination. Metastasis accounts for the vast majority of cancer deaths, yet most work has focussed on tumour‐intrinsic traits and angiogenesis, while the specific contribution of endothelial barrier regulation to intravasation and extravasation remains ...
