The role of identification in data‐driven policy iteration: A system theoretic study
International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.Abstract The goal of this article is to study fundamental mechanisms behind so‐called indirect and direct data‐driven control for unknown systems. Specifically, we consider policy iteration applied to the linear quadratic regulator problem. Two iterative procedures, where data collected from the system are repeatedly used to compute new estimates of ...

Redefining Optimal Coverage Path Planning for FLS‐Equipped AUVs With Deep Reinforcement Learning
Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) have emerged as indispensable tools for a variety of subsea tasks, from habitat monitoring and seabed mapping to infrastructure inspection and mine countermeasures. A fundamental challenge in this field is Coverage Path Planning (CPP), the problem of ensuring complete and efficient area coverage.

Small, EarlyView.Polyion complex micelles composed of blends of ABA and AB block copolymers can form coacervates with a hexagonally packed cylinder nanostructure after heating. The resulting coacervates can release the micelles under physiological conditions in a zero‐order kinetics, possessing cargo proteins.

Stress‐Adaptive Biomaterials With Tunable Yielding Architectures Regulate Organoid Morphogenesis
Small, EarlyView.Granular hydrogels are developed to tune the yield stress levels at which 3D tissue culture matrices undergo plastic deformation. We use these materials to regulate growth‐induced stresses, with demonstrable effects on cancer spheroid invasion and brain organoid morphogenesis.

Molecular Friction Trumps Viscosity in Angstrofluidic Transport
Small, EarlyView.Single‐file transport through sub‐1 nm graphene nanopore and carbon nanotube is investigated using molecular dynamics and ergodic trajectory sampling. The study shows that confinement geometry and wall‐fluid interaction strength govern molecular mobility, allowing atomistic motion to be translated into a continuum‐based resistance coefficient for ...

Local Eviction Moratoria and the Spread of COVID‐19
Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT At different stages during the initial onset of the COVID‐19 pandemic, various US states and local municipalities enacted eviction moratoria. One of the main aims of these moratoria was to slow the spread of COVID‐19 infections. We deploy a semiparametric difference‐in‐differences approach with an event study specification to examine whether ...

Damage Investigation of the Preform Operations for the Production of Rings for Ring Rolling
steel research international, EarlyView.Void evolution during the preforming operations of two industrial ring rolling process routes is investigated by combining metallographic characterization with a two‐scale finite element simulation approach. The results reveal that, despite differing initial void conditions, the preforming operations can be designed to effectively influence void ...

Reverse engineering strut‐and‐tie models for assessing reinforced concrete structures
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Strut‐and‐tie models enable the design of reinforced concrete structures with static or geometrical discontinuities, providing interpretability and control over the load path. These models are valuable for designing discontinuity regions of new structures and for validating nonlinear finite‐element analysis results. However, developing a strut‐

IEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, EarlyView.As the share of renewable energy in the energy mix continues to increase, the penetration of distributed renewable generation in distribution networks is also rising steadily. Loop‐closing operation provides an effective means to enhance renewable energy accommodation across different grid partitions.

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.We used spatially explicit capture‐recapture to estimate jaguar densities in a private reserve in the Colombian Llanos and quantified land cover change in and around the reserve from 2014 to 2024. Densities increased 22% since 2014, while disturbed land cover increased by 39%–54% around the reserve depending on buffer distance. Our study indicates that
