One‐Dimensional Finite Elements With Arbitrary Cross‐Sectional Displacement Fields

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 1, 15 January 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper introduces an unprecedented unified approach for developing structural theories with an arbitrary kinematic variable over the beam cross‐section. Each of the three displacement variables can be analyzed using an independent expansion function. Both the order of the expansion and the number of terms in each field can be any. That is,

Flight Control of a Novel Distributed Tiltrotor UAV With Experiments

IET Control Theory &Applications, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
Considering the mode transition control of a novel distributed tiltrotor UAV, we designed a fast fixed‐time sliding mode attitude controller to improve the response speed and robustness of the control system. Furthermore, a smooth mode transition strategy is developed to guarantee the stable conversion between fixed‐wing and helicopter modes ...

Drone‐Assisted Organ Transport: A Scoping Review of Clinical, Regulatory, and System Readiness

Clinical Transplantation, Volume 39, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Organ transport remains a critical determinant of transplant success, with delays during transfer prolonging cold ischemia time (CIT) and increasing the risk of delayed graft function or organ discard. Uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) have emerged as a potential means to enhance the speed, predictability, and resilience of transplant logistics.
