A Splitting Architecture for Exact Reduced Coulomb Friction

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Existing approaches to frictional contact dynamics typically either modify the Coulomb law to improve numerical robustness or solve the exact law in a fully coupled monolithic form. However, in its reduced form, exact Coulomb friction can be written as a cone complementarity problem with an augmented velocity, which reveals a natural split ...

HySE: A Force‐Directed Layout Algorithm for Directed and Mixed Graphs

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present HySE, a novel graph layout algorithm for mixed graphs combining directed and undirected components. Using a holistic spring embedder approach, HySE unifies hierarchical and force‐directed aesthetics, supports non‐uniform node sizes, and performs comparably to state‐of‐the‐art algorithms.

Algorithmic AI Consciousness

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, I argue that the thoroughly algorithmic nature of current AI systems (such as LLMs) is no obstacle to their being conscious, despite strong apparent reasons to the contrary. To this end, I present a picture on which algorithmic AI systems comprise dispositional properties that realize categorical phenomenal properties where the ...

A New Take on Sharp Cracks in Brittle Dielectrics: Where Electric Dipole Layers Meet Concentrated Line Forces

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT In this work, novel electrostatic aspects of sharp cracks in brittle dielectrics are discussed using the example of an impermeable Griffith crack in an infinite linear isotropic dielectric plate. On the one hand, electrostatic force densities stemming from the Maxwell stress tensor according to Lorentz are derived mathematically, where the ...

Data‐Driven Spectral Prediction for Accelerating Large‐Scale Electronic Structure Calculations

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Simulating large molecular systems comprising thousands of atoms requires highly scalable methodologies. While modern Density Functional Theory (DFT) codes exhibit linear scaling, solving the associated large, sparse generalized eigenproblems remains a critical computational bottleneck on exascale architectures.

A Practice‐Oriented Exercise Concept to Foster Modeling Competence in Technical Mechanics

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT The transition from physical phenomena to idealized mathematical models represents a fundamental cognitive threshold in engineering education. To address this gap, this paper presents a comprehensive, two‐component didactic concept for introductory technical mechanics centered on improving students' “translational performance”.

Electrospun Biomass‐Derived Flexible Anodes With Hierarchical Structure via Cobalt MOF Integration for Sodium‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 9, Issue 6, November 2026.
Hierarchically porous, N‐doped freestanding anode enables reversible Na+ insertion/desorption and Na–Co alloying, delivering fast kinetics, structural robustness, and durable sodium‐storage performance even under bending/folding. To develop a green, sustainable, and high‐performance anode for sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs), flexible biomass‐based carbon ...

Numerical and Experimental Evaluation of a Simplified Lateral Spring Formulation for Rocking Structures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 14, Page 3540-3560, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Rocking podium isolation systems have gained significant research interest as a method of limiting seismic demands on superstructures and eliminating residual post‐earthquake drifts through self‐centring behaviour. However, while numerous models of varying complexity, including analytical, phenomenological, and physical formulations, have been

Sustainable and Seismically Resilient Confined Masonry: Global Progress in Research and Design Practice

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
Modern confined masonry (CM) construction consists of masonry walls confined by reinforced concrete (RC) tie‐columns and tie‐beams. When built correctly, CM buildings have shown good performance in earthquake's shaking. Even though CM construction has been practised for almost a century in some Latin American countries, its use and standardisation are ...

First 20 Years of Orbitrap Mass Spectrometry as the Mainstream Analytical Technique

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 1064-1086, November/December 2026.
ABSTRACT This review traces the first 20 years of Orbitrap mass spectrometry as a mainstream high‑resolution and accurate‑mass (HR/AM) technology. It outlines the historical development of the Orbitrap analyzer, the evolution of major instrument families, and the key technological innovations that enabled its widespread adoption. Particular emphasis is
