Coupling Modelling and Fault Propagation Simulation Method for Power Grid‐Centric Urban Lifeline Systems Under Extreme Disasters

open access: yesEnergy Internet, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 255-273, October 2025.
ABSTRACT The interconnection of urban critical infrastructure poses new challenges to the secure operation of power grid‐centric urban lifeline systems. The interdependencies among infrastructure systems increase the risk of cascading fault propagation, thereby threatening urban public safety.

Tracking malathion resistance in Spanish Ceratitis capitata populations: prevalence of resistance alleles/haplotypes before and after the withdrawal of malathion

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 7, Page 3921-3932, July 2025.
The mutation G328A (R allele) and a novel heterogeneous duplication of the acetylcholinesterase gene (RS haplotype, one of the copies bearing the mutation G328A and the other copy non‐mutated), both accounting for malathion resistance, were widely distributed in Spanish Ceratitis capitata populations when malathion was used (2003–2008). Their frequency

Evaluation of toxicity of biorational insecticides against larvae of the alfalfa weevil

open access: yesToxicology Reports, 2016
The alfalfa weevil, Hypera postica (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), is a major pest of alfalfa Medicago sativa L. (Fabaceae). While H. postica usually causes the most damage before the first cutting, in summer of 2015 damaging levels of the pest persisted in

Associations of Estimated Glucose Disposal Rate With Stroke Risk and Poststroke Adverse Outcomes: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 31, Issue 6, June 2025.
Leveraging UK Biobank data, this study investigated the associations between estimated glucose disposal rate (eGDR), an insulin resistance marker, and stroke outcomes. Analyses revealed longitudinal and nonlinear relationships between eGDR and stroke subtypes, poststroke complications, and identified inflammatory markers as mediators of eGDR's effect ...

Everyday understandings of drone incidents and misuse in the Mass Observation Archive

open access: yesThe Geographical Journal, Volume 191, Issue 2, June 2025.
Short Abstract As drones increasingly feature in everyday airspace, so too do concerns grow about drone incidents and misuse. Drawing on the development of a Mass Observation Archive directive and the testimony of correspondents, this article at once explores everyday stories of drone incidents and misuse and brings drone geographies into novel ...

Design of Aromatic Interaction Networks in a Protein Cage Modulated by Fluorescent Ligand Binding

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 15, April 17, 2025.
The study presents a novel system designed to control protein dynamics by orientational changes of aromatic residues triggered by ligand binding. By creating aromatic pockets within protein cages and binding fluorescent molecules via π–π interactions, the study achieves cooperative conformational change verified through X‐ray crystallography.
