Origin of Physicochemical and Mechanical Stability of Low‐Temperature Prepared TiO2‐Based Photocatalytic Films: Surface Hydroxyl Density Matching

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Material science advances show how surface chemistry improves low‐temperature prepared TiO2‐SiO2 composite films. Using a colloidal‐based synthesis method instead of a powdered‐based one, researchers exploit hydroxyl groups' interfacial interactions to create nanoscale structures with superior physicochemical and mechanical stability.

Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

Genomic Insights Into Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Acquired Azithromycin Resistance Genes in Salmonella Strains Worldwide

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Azithromycin has been used for clinical invasive infections caused by fluoroquinolone‐ and third‐generation cephalosporin‐resistant Salmonella, and mass drug administration with azithromycin has been used to reduce under‐5 mortality in children in some countries.

Exchange Rates and Sovereign Risk: A Nonlinear Approach Based on Local Gaussian Correlations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We empirically assess the interlinkages between sovereign risk, measured in terms of CDS spreads, and exchange rates for a sample of emerging markets. Our period of analysis includes episodes of severe stress, such as the Global Financial Crisis, the COVID‐19 pandemic, and the Ukrainian War.

Operationalising Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Effectiveness

open access: yesAsian Journal of Accounting Perspectives, 2014
Studies on ERM effectiveness appear to suffer from the same catastrophic dilemma as that of organizational effectiveness. To the best of the author’s knowledge, very little research has been done on the effectiveness of ERM in managing risks.

Comparison of machine learning methods for prediction of venous thromboembolism among hospitalized adults

open access: yesJournal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Hospital‐acquired venous thromboembolism (HA‐VTE) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality among hospitalized adults. Accurate prediction of HA‐VTE is crucial for timely intervention and prevention. While logistic regression is widely used for the development of clinical prediction models, there is ongoing interest in the ...
