Integrating Urban Expansion and Flood Risk: A Spatial Assessment of Impervious Surface Growth and Floodplain Exposure in Mecklenburg County (2011–2021)

open access: yesWorld Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban expansion significantly impacts flood risk, particularly in rapidly growing areas where impervious surfaces exacerbate surface runoff. This study examines spatial patterns of urban growth and their effects on flood exposure in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, from 2011 to 2021.

A general approach to the linear stability of viscoelastic shear‐flows

open access: yesZAMM - Journal of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics / Zeitschrift für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik, Volume 106, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The present work provides an in‐depth analysis of the linear stability theory of viscoelastic shear‐flows, based upon a constitutive equation of the fading memory type. The particular model considered herein was introduced by Kenneth Walters through the integration of classical rate‐type fluids in a convected frame (Walters 1962).

Effects of landscape fragmentation on floodplain fishes as revealed by species–habitat networks

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract How species interact with habitat patches is influenced primarily by habitat configuration (e.g., connectivity) and species’ functional traits. As levels of fragmentation increase, identifying the intricate connections between these components is crucial for biodiversity conservation.

A novel fractional structure of a multi-order quantum multi-integro-differential problem

open access: yesAdvances in Difference Equations, 2020
In the present research manuscript, we formulate a new generalized structure of the nonlinear Caputo fractional quantum multi-integro-differential equation in which such a multi-order structure of quantum integrals is considered for the first time.

Mathematical Modeling of Measured Recalescence Velocities

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 977-988, 30 January 2026.
ABSTRACT A moving‐boundary problem of synchronous directional and volumetric solidification in undercooled liquid drops is formulated and solved. Directional solidification is caused by the temperature gradient along the spatial direction, whereas volumetric growth of new phase elements is caused by the melt undercooling ahead of the phase transition ...

Active Sampling of Interpolation Points to Identify Dominant Subspaces for Model Reduction

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 1, 15 January 2026.
ABSTRACT Model reduction is an active research field to construct low‐dimensional surrogate models of high fidelity to accelerate engineering design cycles. In this work, we investigate model reduction for linear structured systems using dominant reachable and observable subspaces.

Inducing Chirality and Chiral Instabilities in Ferrogels with Homogenous Magnetic Fields

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 6, 19 January 2026.
By pre‐aligning magnetic particles into chains, significant chiral deformations are induced by fixing the base of a cylindrical actuator and applying a homogeneous magnetic field. Subsequent base rotation can drive the system into metastable states. Further rotation or reduction of field strength triggers a chiral instability, characterized by a switch

On the Noisy Road to Open Quantum Dynamics: The Place of Stochastic Hamiltonians

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 1, January 2026.
Stochastic Hamiltonian formulations of open quantum dynamics are revisited, highlighting their roots in stochastic calculus. The connections among stochastic Hamiltonians, stochastic Schrödinger equations, and master‐equation approaches are made explicit.

Three-dimensional integro-multipoint boundary value problem for loaded Volterra-hyperbolic integro-differential equations of Bianchi type

open access: yesVestnik Samarskogo Gosudarstvennogo Tehničeskogo Universiteta. Seriâ: Fiziko-Matematičeskie Nauki, 2012
In this paper the combined three-dimensional non-local boundary value problem with integro-multipoint conditions for loaded volterra-hyperbolic integro-differential equation of Bianchi type is explored.
