Optimization of Batch Centralized Health Examination Scheduling Considering Inter‐Item Transition Time and Sex Differences: An Empirical Optimization Study

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims With increasing health awareness among Chinese residents, the demand for health examinations has continued to grow, placing mounting pressure on hospitals and health examination centers. This problem is particularly evident in group batch health examinations, where a large instantaneous flow of examinees and numerous ...

Seismic Risk of Critical Transport Systems: Sensitivity Analysis of the Campania Railway Network to Bradyseism's Features

open access: yesRisk Analysis, Volume 46, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines the impact of epistemic uncertainties on the seismic risk of a critical transport system, the Campania railway network, during the ongoing bradyseismic unrest at Campi Flegrei, south of Italy. Seismic risk is quantified as the length of the railway requiring post‐event inspection, an operational proxy for service disruption.

Time‐Delayed Spiking Reservoir Computing Enables Efficient Time Series Prediction

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study proposes time‐delayed spiking reservoir computing (TDSRC) for efficient time series prediction. By concatenating time‐lagged states, TDSRC constructs an expanded readout feature vector without altering internal reservoir dynamics. This approach enables highly accurate forecasting with significantly fewer neurons, providing a resource ...

Nonlinear Dynamic Behaviour Analysis of a Clutch System with Uncertainties Using Polynomial Chaos and the Constrained Harmonic Balance Method

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2020
The study of the nonlinear dynamic behaviour of friction systems in general and of clutch systems in particular remains an open problem. Noise and vibrations induced by friction in the sliding phase of a clutch are very sensitive to design parameters ...

Unifying framework for information processing in stochastically driven dynamical systems

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2021
A dynamical system is an information processing apparatus that encodes input streams from the external environment to its state and processes them through state transitions.

Fourier Expansion‐Based Approach to the Parameter Space of Classical Systems

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT We propose a new approach to compute the classical metric tensor (CMT) and the Hannay curvature using Fourier series expansions in action‐angle variables. This approach circumvents the need for complex time‐domain integrals or the construction of generating functions, replacing them with algebraic combinations of Fourier coefficients. We prove

Embracing Complexity in HRM Research: A Call for System and Process Perspectives

open access: yesHuman Resource Management, Volume 65, Issue 4, Page 995-1013, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Human resource management (HRM) is inherently complex. It involves systems of principles, practices, and activities operating at individual, group, organizational, and macro levels, which are interlinked through complex processes. Yet, empirical research has not kept pace with this conceptual richness.

Stochastic Optimization of Economic Dispatch With Wind and Photovoltaic Energy Using the Nested Sparse Grid-Based Stochastic Collocation Method

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Due to the increasing uncertainty brought about by renewable energy, conventional deterministic dispatch approaches have not been very applicative. This paper investigates a nested sparse grid-based stochastic collocation method (NS-SCM) as a possible ...

Uncertainty Quantification in Mooring Cable Dynamics Using Polynomial Chaos Expansions

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Mooring systems exhibit high failure rates. This is especially problematic for offshore renewable energy systems, like wave and floating wind, where the mooring system can be an active component and the redundancy in the design must be kept low.

Global Sensitivity Analysis of Societal Resilience Using Shapley Values and Polynomial Chaos Expansion

open access: yesRisk Analysis, Volume 46, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Societies worldwide face increasingly complex and interconnected crises that challenge their capacity for resilience. Assessing which structural indicators are most strongly associated with resilience scores requires quantitative methods capable of handling interdependencies, nonlinearities, and limited sample sizes.
