Decoupling glacier retreat and surface stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (Slovenia), insights from in situ cosmogenic 36Cl exposure and depth‐profile ages

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glaciokarst landscapes pose distinctive challenges for cosmogenic dating because meltwater and runoff can be rapidly rerouted into ponors and conduit networks, weakening glacier–river coupling and promoting local sediment storage. We reconstruct glacier retreat and postglacial stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (SW Slovenia) using in situ ...

Cis–Trans Rotational Isomerism of Formic Acid, Sulfur, and Selenium Analogues and Their Dimers: Chemical Kinetics Under Interstellar Conditions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Chemical Kinetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present chemical kinetic rate constants for the cis to trans isomerisation or rotamerization of monomeric seleno‐, thio‐, and formic acids and that of three of their dimeric species, based on variational transition state theory and multidimensional tunneling calculations in the gas‐phase, from 10 K to 300 K. These provide, firstly, reliable

Living with the Unknown: Intolerance of Uncertainty in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is marked by pervasive uncertainty due to fluctuating motor and non‐motor symptoms, variable treatment response, and an unpredictable clinical course. Intolerance of uncertainty (IU), a tendency to perceive ambiguity as threatening and respond with worry, avoidance, or decisional paralysis, may be ...

Comparative Performance Evaluation of Wind Energy Systems Using Doubly Fed Induction Generator and Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator

open access: yesWind
Wind energy has become a cornerstone of sustainable electricity generation, yet the reliable integration of wind energy conversion systems (WECSs) into modern grids remains challenged by dynamic variations in wind speed and stringent fault ride-through ...

Apathy in Lewy Body Disorders: A Position Paper

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Apathy is one of the most prevalent and disabling non‐motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), collectively referred to as Lewy body disorders (LBDs). It is associated with reduced quality of life, accelerated cognitive decline, increased caregiver burden, and poorer functional outcomes, yet remains ...

Design, Analysis, and Experimental Validation of a Variable‐Gap Magnetorheological Damper for Seat Suspension

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To address the dual challenges of routine driving vibration and impact loads in vehicle seat suspensions, a novel variable‐gap magnetorheological damper (VGMRD) is proposed. By combining a tapered piston with a conformal variable‐diameter cylinder, stroke‐dependent, dual‐mode damping characteristics are achieved without the need for complex ...

Real‐Time Fractional Control of an Electrohydraulic System Using Low‐Cost Technology

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advances in control methods for electrohydraulic systems (EHS) improve performance by addressing nonlinearities and unknown parameters, although most studies are limited to numerical simulations. Furthermore, research with experimental validation often relies on high‐performance computing equipment, specialized data acquisition cards, and ...

Nonstationarity in wildlife disease dynamics: insights from the prairie dog–plague system

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Ecological relationships often vary in strength and direction across ecosystems, a pattern that has become increasingly evident as ecology expands to broader spatial and temporal scales. Although such nonstationarity – the changing effect of predictor variables across spatiotemporal contexts – is widely acknowledged in ecological research, it has ...

From Connections to Actions: When Do Government Ties Matter to Nonprofit Organizational Performance?

open access: yesPublic Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nonprofit organizations are essential for public service delivery, yet the value of their government ties is contested. This study examines the mechanism that translates these connections into tangible results. We propose that political networking—the deliberate cultivation and use of official relationships—is the critical catalyst.

Stair‐Climbing Wheelchairs for Enhanced Mobility: A Comprehensive Review of Fundamental Mechanisms, Design Concepts, and Performance Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT People with physical disabilities face significant mobility challenges while climbing uneven surfaces and staircases. In these circumstances, traditional wheelchairs do not provide stable, safely controlled mobility, underscoring the importance of building superior stair‐climbing wheelchairs for both medical and infrastructure purposes.
