Thermally Activated Static Friction Can Explain Earthquake Interactions
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Unlike meteorological hazards, tectonic earthquakes remain hardly predictable, reinforcing their deadly character. This relates to an out‐of‐equilibrium, intermittent dynamic associated with a strong time asymmetry, with few and non‐systematic foreshocks sometimes preceding large earthquakes, while aftershocks are ubiquitous and have been ...

e3SIM: Epidemiological‐ecological‐evolutionary simulation framework for genomic epidemiology
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 1051-1059, April 2026.Abstract Infectious disease dynamics result from the complex interplay of epidemiological, ecological and evolutionary (epi‐eco‐evo) processes. Accurately modelling these coupled processes is crucial for understanding pathogen spread and informing public health strategies.

Faster Uptake, Slower Let‐Down: Asymmetric Community Responses to Changing Risks During a Pandemic
Risk Analysis, Volume 46, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT From how public opinion responds to economic outcomes to how risk perception shapes social interactions during a pandemic, many important social processes involve the assimilation of information to form opinions and perceptions, which in turn guide individual and societal actions.

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 1643-1651, 1 April 2026.Abstract Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a global epidemic, with heart failure being the leading cause of premature death. Mitochondrial dysfunction, characterized by impaired energy metabolism, weakened energy transport system and increased oxidative stress, has been proposed as a key contributor to the impairment of contractile function in T2D hearts ...

Hybrid Reaction–Diffusion Epidemic Models: Dynamics and Emergence of Oscillations
Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 4074-4095, 30 March 2026.ABSTRACT In this paper, we construct a hybrid epidemic mathematical model based on a reaction–diffusion system of the SIR (susceptible‐infected‐recovered) type. This model integrates the impact of random factors on the transmission rate of infectious diseases, represented by a probabilistic process acting at discrete time steps.
