Degree theory for 4‐dimensional asymptotically conical gradient expanding solitons

Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 79, Issue 5, Page 1151-1298, May 2026.
Abstract We develop a new degree theory for 4‐dimensional, asymptotically conical gradient expanding solitons. Our theory implies the existence of gradient expanding solitons that are asymptotic to any given cone over S3$S^3$ with non‐negative scalar curvature. We also obtain a similar existence result for cones whose link is diffeomorphic to S3/Γ$S^3/\

Next Generation 7 Tesla Arterial Spin Labeling With Rotated Spiral Acquisition Enables Mesoscale Resolution in 3D Brain Perfusion and Functional MRI

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 5, Page 2702-2717, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose To achieve high resolution (≤ 1 mm isotropic) whole‐brain perfusion imaging at 7 T with next generation ASL pulse sequence, reconstruction algorithm, and MRI hardware. Methods We capitalized on three major innovations: (1) FLASH‐based pseudo‐Continuous ASL (pCASL) sequence with rotated golden‐angle stack‐of‐spirals (rGA‐SoS) sampling; (

Asymmetrically Distributed Kelvin‐Helmholtz Instability at Venusian Magnetosphere

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract The asymmetric distribution of Kelvin‐Helmholtz (KH) instability at Venusian ionopause is investigated using a multifluid model. Results show that KH instability distributes asymmetrically, preferentially developing in the −E (anti‐parallel to the interplanetary electric field) hemisphere.

An Explicit, Compact, and Rotation‐Agnostic Formulation for Equivalent Nodal Loads for Point‐Loaded Beams

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 7, 15 April 2026.
ABSTRACT In time‐marching dynamical simulations, treatment of contact forces in deformable bodies represented by finite element meshes requires a compromise between simulation fidelity and computational costs. External forces directly evaluated at the mesh nodes offer better computational performance at the cost of modelling fidelity.

Sleep Alters the Velocity of Physiological Brain Pulsations in Humans

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 19, 2 April 2026.
Sleep alters I/CSF oscillatory flow, driven by increased respiratory (29%) and vasomotor pulsation (21%) velocities, while cardiovascular pulsations decreased by (22%). Velocity is quantified using optical flow analysis of MREG data. Spectral power increases alongside these pulsations (spatial correlation, r = 0.35 and r = 0.39, respectively ...

Discrete Element Method Modeling of an Extrusion Process with Recirculation for Dry Manufacturing of Lithium‐Ion Battery Electrodes

Batteries &Supercaps, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
On a digitized laboratory extruder, discrete element method modelling is studied, considering two classes of particles representing aggregates of 1) active material and 2) binder and carbon material is studied. Various extrusion scenarios leading to the formation of filaments devoted to the 3D printing of lithium‐ion battery electrodes are studied. The

Verification of a Fluid–Structure Interaction Model for Aortic Stenosis Through Comparison With In Vitro Experiments

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 4, April 2026.
A patient‐specific Fluid–structure Interaction (FSI) model of aortic stenosis was verified against in vitro experiments using a mock‐loop circulatory system with patient‐specific calcified and non‐calcified valve models under varying flow conditions. The in vitro experiments were replicated in the FSI model.

Isoperimetric inequalities on slabs with applications to cubes and Gaussian slabs

Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 79, Issue 4, Page 1012-1072, April 2026.
Abstract We study isoperimetric inequalities on “slabs”, namely weighted Riemannian manifolds obtained as the product of the uniform measure on a finite length interval with a codimension‐one base. As our two main applications, we consider the case when the base is the flat torus R2/2Z2$\mathbb {R}^2 / 2 \mathbb {Z}^2$ and the standard Gaussian measure

A Review of Vagus Nerve Stimulation for Disease: Comprehensive Theory and Evidence for Mechanisms of Action

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2026.
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) effects span central and peripheral organ systems through diverse mechanistic pathways. This comprehensive review provides a unified synthesis of these mechanisms across neurological, cardiovascular, immunological, metabolic, and gastrointestinal domains, filling a critical gap and serving as a foundational resource for ...

Seismic Design of Concrete Dams: An Integrated Risk‐Informed Performance‐Based (RIPB) Framework

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 1019-1049, 25 April 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper advances the integration of risk‐informed principles into the seismic design of dams—a domain long guided by standards‐based, largely deterministic approaches. While performance‐based earthquake engineering is well established for buildings and bridges, its systematic adoption in dam engineering remains limited. We first address two
