Strict weak mixing of some C*-dynamical systems based on free shifts

open access: yes, 2006
We define a stronger property than unique ergodicity with respect to the fixed-point subalgebra previously investigated by Abadie and Dykema. Such a property is denoted as F-strict weak mixing (F stands for the Markov projection onto the fixed-point ...

Tsunami Casualty Risk Assessment Integrating Evacuation Tower Placement, Seismic Road Network Performance Enhancement, and Disaster Education

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 500-520, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Since the 2011 Great East Japan earthquake, tsunami evacuation towers have been constructed in coastal regions based on worst‐case predictions to provide additional safety margins against unprecedented tsunamis. However, the extent to which such assumptions effectively reduce casualty risk remains unclear.

Research on Three‐Dimensional Autonomous Obstacle Avoidance Path Planning Methods for UAVs

open access: yesTransactions on Emerging Telecommunications Technologies, Volume 37, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study presents a three‐dimensional autonomous obstacle‐avoidance path planning method for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) based on a deep reinforcement learning (DRL)‐enhanced Mayfly Algorithm. The traditional Mayfly Algorithm suffers from issues such as random initial population generation and slow convergence.

Beyond the cross‐section: Rethinking the intention–behaviour gap through a conceptual and methodological lens

open access: yesBritish Journal of Health Psychology, Volume 31, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Objectives The intention–behaviour gap (IBG) remains a persistent challenge in health psychology. While intentions are widely recognized as proximal determinants of behaviour, they frequently fail to translate into action. This conceptual review aims to critically evaluate dominant models of the IBG and propose a dynamic, multidimensional ...

Hilbert problems for the geosciences in the 21st century [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2001
The scientific problems posed by the Earth's fluid envelope, and its atmosphere, oceans, and the land surface that interacts with them are central to major socio-economic and political concerns as we move into the 21st century.

A practical guide to characterising ecological coexistence

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 195-220, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Coexistence is simultaneously one of the most fundamental concepts of ecology, and one of the most difficult to define. A particular challenge is that, despite a well‐developed body of research, several different schools of thought have developed over the past century, leading to multiple independent, and largely isolated, branches of ...

High‐Entropy Ferroelectric‐Ferroelastic Hybrid for Ultrahigh and Temperature‐Insensitive Dielectric Energy Storage

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 6, 30 January 2026.
A high‐entropy ferroelectric‐ferroelastic hybrid perovskite material is successfully developed, in which a unique hybrid architecture, ferroelastic microdomainsembedded with randomly dispersed polar nanoregions, endows the ceramic with polar heterogeneity as well as lowered polarization hysteresis, delayed saturation polarization and enhanced breakdown

Quantum Jumps in Amplitude Bistability: Tracking a Coherent and Invertible State Localization

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 1, January 2026.
A notable asymmetry is shown to characterize the bistable switching between macroscopic metastable states of light in the strong‐coupling limit of radiation–matter interaction. Transitions from the vacuum to a highly excited state correlate with a highly bunched sequence of emitted photons, while a downward switch to the vacuum involves a coherent ...

Characterization of Electric Field Fluctuations in the High-Latitude Ionosphere Using a Dynamical Systems Approach: CSES-01 Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing
We present an analysis of the ionospheric electric field dynamics at high latitudes during periods of quiet and disturbed geomagnetic activity by exploiting recent advancements in dynamical systems and extreme value theory.
