Recent Development of Endo‐hepatology
DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.ABSTRACT Endo‐hepatology is a rapidly evolving field encompassing endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of hepatobiliary diseases, primarily using endoscopic ultrasound (EUS). Since its conceptualization in 2012, the field has expanded dramatically alongside advances in interventional EUS. A landmark 2024 review broadened the concept to include endoscopic

Acoustics of the orchestral kettledrum [PDF]
, 1993 A complete theoretical overview of the acoustics of the kettledrum is taken. Starting with the well understood vibrations of a stretched circular membrane in a vacuum, the thesis goes on to investigate the deformation produced when the drum is struck and

Earthquake 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 ...

The use of acoustics in space exploration
, 2007 In recent years increased attention has been paid to the potential uses of acoustics forextraterrestrial exploration. The extent to which acoustics per se is used in these studiesvaries greatly. First, there are the cases in which acoustics is simply the

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 96, Issue 4, Page 1726-1740, October 2026.ABSTRACT Purpose To enable flexible dynamic and DCE MRI with low acoustic noise and high spatiotemporal resolution using zero echo time (ZTE) imaging. Methods This work proposes Arc‐ZTE, a technique in which the readout gradients of ZTE are continuously‐slewed to form arcs in k‐space that are sequentially rotated to yield an incoherent trajectory ...

Ultrafast Optical Hydrogen Modulator in a Palladium Hydride Nanoparticulate Thin Film
Nanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 17, 11 September 2026.An all‐optical palladium metal‐hydride modulator was investigated with ultrashort laser pulses, which can manipulate hydrogen positions on the femto‐to picosecond timescale. The incident photons activate interstitial hydrogen atoms and their subsequent trajectories affect the dielectric properties of the palladium hydride thin film, providing optical ...
