Multifunctional Superwetting Sea‐Urchin‐Mimetic Nanosheet‐Based Interface for Remote Oil‐Water Separation

Small, EarlyView.
A fluorine‐free, FBC–rGO coating‐based robust superhydrophobic/superoleophilic sorbent (WCA >154°), enabling rapid, selective oil uptake and efficient oil/water separation. Integrated into a dolphin‐inspired Wi‐Fi mini‐bot with onboard pumping and storage, the platform enables remote, contactless, on‐site oil recovery from hazardous spill zones ...

Laying the Foundation for Digital Material Design of Porous Transport Electrodes for PEM Water Electrolysis With Multiscale Tomography

Small, EarlyView.
This paper presents the first multiscale identical location tomography of a porous transport electrode for PEM water electrolysis. Different tomography and modeling approaches determine the relevant structural properties ranging from micrometer‐thick fibers to nanometer‐thin binder films covering the catalyst particles.

Mesh‐Based Charge Simulation Method and Its Applications to Electrostatic Electric Field Computation

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The charge simulation method (CSM) is a well‐established numerical technique employed in electrostatic field calculations, primarily due to its simplicity and computational efficiency. However, conventional CSM face challenges when applied to complex geometries, as they necessitate meticulous manual placement of simulation charges and matching

The Discrete Laplace Transform (DLT) Order: A Sensitive Approach to Comparing Discrete Residual Life Distributions with Applications to Queueing Systems

European Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics
In this paper, we propose a general methodology for implementing a stochastic ordering framework based on the Discrete Laplace Transform (DLT) to analyze and compare residual life distributions in discrete-time systems. We formally introduce the DLT-order, denoted X ≤DLT Y, and establish its key properties: reflexivity, transitivity, monotonicity, and ...

Should you use data integration for your distribution model?

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This paper explores cases where data integration (the joint modelling of two or more observational datasets) is useful for species distribution models, and also highlights cases where it's actually not useful. This provides the first concrete guidance for deciding whether or not data integration is worth your time.

Environmental drivers of metapopulation dynamics throughout the full annual cycle in a declining Arctic‐nesting migratory herbivore

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We provide a framework for extending commonly used integrated population models to a metapopulation framework for testing novel ecological hypotheses about how changing environmental conditions within and among subpopulations drive changes in animal abundance.

Pluralistic Research Designs in Management and Organization Studies: Integrating Paradigms Through Structural and Anti‐structural Frameworks

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper focuses on pluralistic research designs in management and organization studies. While advocates often present such approaches as a means of reconciling practical relevance with scientific rigour, their philosophical coherence remains underexplored, particularly in relation to the paradigm debates of the 1980s and 1990s. Our analysis

Generalized graphical mixed models connect ecological theory with widely used statistical models

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecological dynamics are often analysed across multiple sites, times, and variables. Ecologists typically represent interactions across space, time, and variables using generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs), generalized additive models (GAM), and structural equation models (SEM).

Trial‐Based Hemolysis Modeling to Investigate Operating Modes of Continuous‐Flow LVADs

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
This work presents a methodology for determining online‐capable hemolysis models for continuous‐flow LVADs, derived from in vitro trials. The models are based on fitting a modified power law and applying the Lagrangian approach. They assist clinicians in selecting treatment strategies that minimize hemolysis, as demonstrated with the Sputnik1 LVAD ...
