Phosphorus‐Doping Drives the Formation of a Pt‐Skin@PtFe Alloy Catalyst With Modulated d‐Band Center for Oxygen Reduction

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Platinum (Pt)‐based catalysts are crucial for the commercialization of hydrogen/metal air batteries, but they suffer from Pt scarcity, high cost, and nanoparticle dissolution/agglomeration, mainly leading to performance degradation. We address this by synthesizing a PtFe alloy catalyst (PtFe–PA–NC) via a phytic acid (PA) assisted pyrolysis ...

A Parameter Identification Method of Train Basic Resistance Based on Improved White Shark Algorithm

IET Intelligent Transport Systems, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
In this research, an identification framework based on train single‐mass dynamics model is first established to transform the parameter identification problem into a parameter optimization problem. Subsequently, an improved White Shark Algorithm incorporating Logistic Chaos Map, Time‐Varying Inertia Weight, and Gaussian Random Walk is designed to solve
