Evolutionary legacies structure the geography of seagrass traits across the world's oceans

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Traits modulate species' ability to track shifts in climate, yet the extent to which traits have been shaped by the contemporary environment and/or historical processes remains poorly understood. Here, we fill this gap for the world's seagrasses, habitat‐forming species that provide critical ecosystem services.

On the complexity of computing the hypervolume indicator

, 2007
The goal of multi-objective optimization is to find a set of best compromise solutions for typically conflicting objectives. Due to the complex nature of most real-life problems, only an approximation to such an optimal set can be obtained within reasonable (computing) time. To compare such approximations, and thereby the performance of multi-objective

A Novel Optimal Sensor Placement Method for Optimizing the Diagnosability of Liquid Rocket Engine

Aerospace
There are hundreds of various sensors used for online Prognosis and Health Management (PHM) of LREs. Inspired by the fact that a limited number of key sensors are selected for inflight control purposes in LRE, it is practical to optimal placement of ...

Optimisation of Temporary and Demountable Flood Protection for Infrastructure Resilience

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Infrastructure systems provide crucial services to human settlements. Extreme weather events, especially flooding, can disrupt these vital services. Temporary and demountable flood protections (TDFPs) are increasingly used to protect infrastructure assets and provide resilience.

Intrinsic and extrinsic drivers shape frugivore functional diversity within a tree population

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract In sessile organisms like plants, interactions with strong fitness implications, such as seed dispersal, are influenced by individual traits and the surrounding environmental context. Recent studies have revealed that individual variation in plant populations shapes mutualistic interactions, but the focus often remains on the taxonomic ...

A Multi-Objective Evolutionary Computation Approach for Improving Neural Network-Based Surrogate Models in Structural Engineering

Algorithms
Surrogate models are widely used in science and engineering to approximate other methods that are usually computationally expensive. Here, artificial neural networks (ANNs) are employed as surrogate regression models to approximate the finite element ...

Hybrid Evolutionary‐Exact Optimization Method for the Bi‐Objective Design‐For‐Control of Water Distribution Networks

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract This work considers the design‐for‐control of water distribution networks (WDN) for the joint optimization of performance and cost‐related objectives. In particular, we focus on the problem of optimizing the placement (design) and settings (control) of pressure reducing valves to minimize leakage at minimum cost.

PasMoQAP: A Parallel Asynchronous Memetic Algorithm for solving the Multi-Objective Quadratic Assignment Problem

, 2017
Multi-Objective Optimization Problems (MOPs) have attracted growing attention during the last decades. Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithms (MOEAs) have been extensively used to address MOPs because are able to approximate a set of non-dominated high ...
