Dual-Objective B.E.S.O.: Explicit Integration of Annual Daylight Autonomy into Structural Topology Optimization.

Structural Topology Optimization iteratively subtracts the weakest elements until it reaches the optimized structural geometry. While this procedure indirectly affects the daylight performance in the interior of a space in a positive way, this research develops a modified Bidirectional Evolutionary Topology Optimization (B.E.S.O) algorithm to achieve ...

Monitoring and assessment for obstructive sleep apnea

FlexMat, EarlyView.
This review systematically classifies Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) monitoring indicators into three categories: physical, biochemical, and electrophysiological indicators, and lists several methods for each category. Abstract Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common chronic sleep‐disordered breathing disease characterized by recurrent upper airway ...

Syncing Health Timing: Exploring the Interplay of Circadian Rhythms, Obesity, and Cardiovascular Diseases

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythm disruption impairs metabolic regulation, appetite control, and vascular function, promoting obesity and cardiovascular diseases. Evidence highlights a bidirectional relationship where metabolic disorders further disturb circadian timing.

Caring Flexibly? Working Conditions and the Supply of Adult Care

Health Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although flexible employment policies can help employed individuals balance caregiving and paid work, limited evidence has been devoted to examining the effect of working flexibly on the supply of care to older adults. In this paper, we study the impact of flexible working conditions on the supply of informal adult care and mental health.

Enhanced spontaneous polarization in directional interlayer sliding γ‐InSe for self‐powered, all‐day visual adaptation and motion perception

InfoMat, EarlyView.
This study develops a retinal‐inspired optoelectronic sensor based on two‐dimensional γ‐InSe, wherein engineered interlayer sliding enhanced spontaneous polarization. The system utilizes the photo‐pyroelectric effect to simulate the snake's all‐day visual function.

Switchable Privacy Displays: Applications, Optical Measurements, and Evaluation With Focus on Automotive

Journal of the Society for Information Display, EarlyView.
Switchable‐privacy displays can be used to protect sensitive data in public spaces and to avoid driver distraction on codriver displays. The key optical parameters are the luminance in public and privacy modes, measured over the viewing angle, and the image quality for the intended observers.
