Exploring the Effectiveness of Road Maintenance Interventions on IRI Value Using Crowdsourced Connected Vehicle Data

Sensors
This work aims to investigate the effectiveness of road maintenance interventions by analyzing changes in the International Roughness Index (IRI) by means of crowdsourced connected vehicle data. For this purpose, 136 pavement maintenance interventions on

Metal‐Support Interaction Triggered Electronic Reconstruction in Pd/CoN‐Co4N Catalysts for Optimizing MEK Oxidation and Poisoning Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The strengthened EMSI in Pd/CoN‐Co4N induces electronic rearrangement, generating abundant Pd0 species in situ, modulating the Pd d‐band center to enhance O2 adsorption and MEK activation. Concurrently, it creates numerous Lewis acid sites that preferentially adsorb poisons and shield the active sites.

Experimental studies of scale effects on shear strength, and deformation of rock joints [PDF]

, 1980
The effect of scale on shear strength is studied by performing direct shear tests on different sized samples of large joints. A rubber moulding system is used to obtain impressions of the roughness from a variety of natural joint surfaces.

Discriminator‐Guided Inverse Folding for Multi‐Property Protein Design

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Discriminator‐Guided Inverse Folding (DGIF) integrates multiple property predictors trained from single‐property datasets to guide protein sequence generation from a backbone structure. DGIF enables simultaneous improvement of thermostability and solubility without requiring multi‐property annotated datasets and generates designs that move toward the ...

Beyond Molecular Determinism: State‐Convergent Polymerization as a Functional Design Principle Under Chemical Complexity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work introduces state‐convergent polymerization (SCP), a polymerization framework in which chemically diverse reaction pathways converge toward a reproducible functional polymeric state rather than a defined molecular structure. Using melanin and polydopamine as exemplars, SCP explains how robust polymer functions emerge under chemical and ...

Reconstruction of Nickel Chalcogenide Induced Ruthenium Nanoparticles Embedding for Oxygen Evolution: Mechanism Switching Enables Enhanced Catalytic Activity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ru nanoparticles supported nickel chalcogens (Ru/NiX, X = S, Se), which enable fast electrooxidation to form an adaptively Ru embedding structure, featured by the compressed Ru─O─Ni bridge bonds at the Ru/NiOOH interface. On the one hand, Ru nanoparticles have a high affinity for capturing the OH−, consequently increasing the *O radical coverage.

Graphene (0002)/Diamond (111) Heterojunction with High Piezoresistive Response

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Graphene/diamond heterostructures show promise as silicon alternatives for semiconductors, but high‐quality integration is challenging. Thermal electron irradiation enables covalent bonding; lonsdaleite acts as an intermediate. The heterostructure exhibits a high piezoresistive response (gauge factor −1149) associated with electron‐rich layers and ...
