Regional Sustainability Assessment Under Risk and Uncertainty: A Water–Energy–Food Based Framework
ABSTRACT Regional sustainability assessment requires integrated structures that can examine the interactions between Water–Energy–Food (WEF) systems, socio‐economic risk conditions, and performance outcomes under uncertainty. This study proposes a multidimensional framework that combines a suitability index, composite sustainability indicators ...

Abstract As students learn and practice new skills in university courses, their behaviour can change in response to competing demands and increasing content complexity. However, most metrics used to evaluate study behaviour focus on the number or sequence of activities rather than on the change of behaviour.

Abstract X‐ray phase contrast imaging (XPCI), when implemented in micro‐computed tomography (micro‐CT) mode, offers high‐contrast 3D imaging of weakly‐attenuating material samples. In the so‐called single‐mask edge illumination approach, a mask with periodically spaced transmitting apertures is used to split the x‐ray beam into narrow beamlets; when ...

Fourier Shell Analysis: k‐Space‐Based Metrics for Assessing Super‐Resolution in 4D Flow MRI
ABSTRACT Purpose To support the emerging field of super‐resolution (SR) in 4D flow MRI by proposing Fourier shell analysis to disentangle resolution enhancement from denoising effects during evaluation. Methods A thoracic aortic 4D flow MRI dataset was synthesized with various degrees of stenosis, providing ground truth flow fields generated using ...

ABSTRACT The GTPase KRAS executes a conformational switch between a GTP‐bound active state and a GDP‐bound inactive state, a process central to oncogenic signaling. However, the structural basis of this switching at the level of residue‐contact organization remains incompletely characterized by traditional binary structural models.

Solar Energy Risks: Stochastic Radiation Modeling and Optimal Hedging Strategies
ABSTRACT The growing integration of solar power into electricity markets increasingly demands advanced risk management tools to address the inherent variability of solar radiation and its interaction with electricity prices. This paper introduces a novel framework for modeling and pricing new financial instruments designed to link payoffs directly to ...

Squeezed‐State Semi‐Device‐Independent Quantum Randomness Generation
Semi‐device‐independent quantum randomness is certified for squeezed‐coherent binary states using only their trusted overlap and the observed homodyne error. Including the deterministic extremes of the full binary‐qubit POVM gives the correct closed‐form Shannon rate.

On Determination Method for Resolution of Secondary Electron Images in Scanning Electron Microscopy
An idealized SEM, termed Rayleigh's microscope, is constructed by Monte Carlo simulation to represent imaging conditions that just satisfy the Rayleigh criterion. Based on this physically defined model, sharpness–resolution conversion curves are established and combined with the Rose criterion, enabling automated resolution evaluation from practical ...
