BIM‐driven productivity and risk management of workspaces for manual and robotic installations
Civil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 4, Page 190-201, December 2025.Abstract In the face of increasing construction project complexity and the widespread adoption of Building Information Modeling (BIM), the efficient planning and execution of workspaces have become critical for enhancing productivity, safety, and overall project success.

Temperature and Morphology Affect the Performance and Cost of Flight in Spruce Budworm Females
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.Forewing length and wing surface are the key morphological traits to explain the biomechanics of the flight performance in spruce budworm. Large budworm females benefit from more energy reserves that can be allocated daily to flight and a relative energy saving during flight due to their mass.

Ecography, Volume 2025, Issue 12, December 2025.Macroclimate is a key driver of biodiversity, but habitat conditions can modulate the local microclimate by amplifying or buffering macroclimatic temperatures. The interplay between microclimatic modulation and macroclimatic temperature is crucial for shaping local biodiversity in a warming world, but remains poorly understood across life forms.

Pond frog as a predator of hornet workers: High tolerance to venomous stings
Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract Some animals use stingers to repel attackers, and some predators have evolved tolerance to such stings, enabling them to consume venomous prey. For example, social wasps, such as hornets, use modified ovipositors as venomous stingers to inject venom, which can cause intense pain in humans.

Experimental Seismic Response Assessment of Tall Buildings With Large Mass Damping
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 54, Issue 15, Page 3707-3725, December 2025.ABSTRACT This paper describes an experimental investigation into the seismic performance of a novel integrated damping system. The proposed damping concept mobilises a portion of the building's own mass to generate damping from its differential motion relative to the lateral load‐resisting system.

Preparing for the storm: rainy day funds in New England [PDF]
Rainy day funds have played an important role in alleviating the current state fiscal crisis. This article examines the benefits of these funds, the various ways in which they can be structured, and the differences in the structure and use of these funds
