Fossil Hegemony and Capitalist Realism in Tropic of Orange

open access: yesFuture Humanities, Volume 4, Issue 1, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This article examines Karen Tei Yamashita's Tropic of Orange (1997) through the lens of Mark Fisher's influential concept ‘capitalist realism’. Scholars of petrofiction have pointed to a political ambivalence in the representation of fossil fuels, where a better understanding of fossil capital can overwhelm as much as galvanize.

A Right‐Wing Populist Turn in the Conservative Party of Canada? Continuities and Ruptures Under the Leadership of Pierre Poilievre (2022–2025)

open access: yesCanadian Review of Sociology/Revue canadienne de sociologie, Volume 63, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Since his election as leader of the Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) in 2022, Pierre Poilievre has been associated with populism in media and political discourse, with implicit and explicit comparisons to Donald Trump. This article investigates the validity of such assessments by applying “complex” theories of populism, which conceptualize ...

High-Performance Speed Control of PMSM Using Fuzzy Sliding Mode with Load Torque Observer

open access: yesApplied Sciences
To enhance the speed control performance of the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) servo system, an improved sliding mode control method integrating a torque observer is presented. The current loop uses current feedback decoupling PID control, and

Sex‐specific impact of repeated adolescent vapour exposure to JWH‐018 on dopamine response, behaviour and pharmacokinetics across adolescence and adulthood

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 7, Page 1517-1538, April 2026.
Abstract Background and Purpose Alarming trends show that vaping e‐cigarettes containing synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists, such as JWH‐018, is increasing among youth. However, the effects of these trends are unclear in both sexes. We therefore characterized the neuropharmacological effects of adolescent JWH‐018 inhalation in male and female rats.

Cowbirds use conspecific social information to detect host nests in the wild

open access: yesIbis, Volume 168, Issue 2, Page 799-804, April 2026.
Recent work shows that hosts of avian brood parasites use social information to increase egg rejection rates, but fewer studies explore how parasites themselves use such information to detect host nests in the wild. To determine whether wild Brown‐headed Cowbirds Molothrus ater use social information to detect host nests, we measured how individual ...

Homogeneous Observer‐Based Affine Formation Tracking

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, Volume 36, Issue 5, Page 2692-2704, 25 March 2026.
ABSTRACT This article addresses the control of mobile agents, termed followers, to track a time‐varying affine formation specified by a set of leaders. We present a distributed hierarchical method composed of a homogeneous high‐order sliding mode observer and a tracking controller. The observer estimates the followers' target trajectories from neighbor

Hopfield Neural Networks for Online Constrained Parameter Estimation With Time‐Varying Dynamics and Disturbances

open access: yesInternational Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 544-564, March 2026.
This paper proposes two projector‐based Hopfield neural network (HNN) estimators for online, constrained parameter estimation under time‐varying data, additive disturbances, and slowly drifting physical parameters. The first is a constraint‐aware HNN that enforces linear equalities and inequalities (via slack neurons) and continuously tracks the ...

Parents' WhatsApp coping resources in the context of ongoing political conflicts: An ecological exploration

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, Volume 77, Issue 1-2, Page 98-117, March 2026.
Abstract Mobile technologies have become significant resources for crisis communication and social support in recent years. However, despite empirical evidence pointing to the centrality of these technologies for parenthood in everyday life, it is yet unknown how parents' coping resources play a role in the digital environment.
