The given research presents an innovative insole‐based device employing self‐powered triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG) for flatfoot detection. By integrating TENG tactile sensors within an insole, the device converts mechanical energy from foot movements to electrical signals analyzed via machine learning, achieving an 82% accuracy rate in flatfoot ...

Positive solutions to the reaction diffusion equations for prey-predator models with dormancy of predators [PDF]
The time-global unique solvability on the reaction diffusion equations for prey-predator models with density-dependent inhibitor and dormancy on predators is established. The crucial step of the proof is to construct time-local non-negative classical solutions.

Influence of Dilute Acetic Acid Treatments on American Pondweed Winter Buds in the Nevada Irrigation District, California [PDF]
American pondweed ( Potamogeton nodosus Poir.) is commonly found in northern California irrigation canals. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that exposure of American pondweed winter buds to dilute acetic acid under field ...

Piezoelectric additives are combined with an elastomer host, creating a material with properties of both parent materials: high voltage output and exceptional stretchability. These stretchable piezoelectric materials have the robustness for integration into soft wearable electronics, functioning as renewable energy harvesters to charge capacitors.

Emergence of microbial host dormancy during a persistent virus epidemic [PDF]
We study a minimal stochastic individual-based model for a microbial population challenged by a persistent (lytic) virus epidemic. We focus on the situation in which the resident microbial host population and the virus population are in stable coexistence upon arrival of a single new ``mutant'' host individual.

Invasion and fixation of microbial dormancy traits under competitive pressure [PDF]
Microbial dormancy is an evolutionary trait that has emerged independently at various positions across the tree of life. It describes the ability of a microorganism to switch to a metabolically inactive state that can withstand unfavorable conditions.

Phenology curve estimation via a mixed model representation of functional principal components: Characterizing time series of satellite-derived vegetation indices [PDF]
Vegetation phenology consists of studying synchronous stationary events, such as the vegetation green up and leaves senescence, that can be construed as adaptive responses to climatic constraints. In this paper, we propose a method to estimate the annual phenology curve from multi-annual observations of time series of vegetation indices derived from ...
