Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Drought is among the most severe and persistent threats to food supply chains, and relocating production to less drought‐prone regions offers a strategy to reduce this risk. This is particularly relevant for fresh vegetables, which are highly water‐intensive, yet drought‐driven reconfiguration strategies remain understudied.

Does Contract Farming Reduce Pesticide Use? Panel Data Evidence From Smallholder Farmers in China
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The inappropriate and excessive use of pesticides poses a major threat to human and ecosystem health in the agri‐food sector. While existing studies have examined the potential of contract farming to address this issue, most have focused on large‐scale farms and relied on small or transactional datasets, often leaving the role of crop‐specific

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.Item‐level factor analysis of the LARS and Wexner scores in 320 patients undergoing sphincter‐preserving rectal resection identified three distinct symptom domains: incontinence, urgency/clustering, and gas control. These domains had different clinical determinants: radiotherapy was associated with greater severity of both incontinence and urgency ...

Control of inhomogeneous materials strength by method of acoustic emission
Записки Горного института, 2017 The ambiguous connection between the results of acoustic emission control and the strength of materials makes acoustic-emission diagnosis ineffective and actualizes the problem of strength and metrological heterogeneity.

A Hybrid Transfer Learning Framework for Brain Tumor Diagnosis
Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.A novel hybrid transfer learning approach for brain tumor classification achieves 99.47% accuracy using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images. By combining image preprocessing, ensemble deep learning, and explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) techniques like gradient‐weighted class activation mapping and SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP), the ...

An Integrated Fabric‐Pneumatic Soft Sensing System for Multi‐Site Muscle Activity Decoding
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Fabric‐pneumatic chambers convert muscle deformation into pressure signals without electronics at the body‐contact sensing interface. A unified processing pipeline enables static posture classification, continuous elbow‐angle estimation, forearm gesture recognition, and knee‐movement detection across three anatomical sites.

Influence of Confining Pressure on the Kaiser Effect of Rocks
Doboku Gakkai Ronbunshu, 2003 AE法を用いた初期地圧の推定において再載荷時の拘束圧の影響に関する実験を行い, 得られた実験結果よりカイザー効果のメカニズムを検討した. 原位置での応力状態を模した三軸圧縮の先行載荷を行った供試体に対し, 先行載荷とは異なる大きさの拘束圧で再載荷を行った. このときのAE発生傾向には二つの急増点が観察され, 先行載荷時の軸差応力と軸応力とに対応している. 軸差応力と軸応力をそれぞれ記憶したクラックの存在が考えられ, これらは拘束圧の大きさに影響されない. この結果をもとに軸差応力を記憶しているクラックモデルとして2次クラックが甫載荷時に成長する際にAEが発生するモデルが実験結果とよく対応することを示した.

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.Abstract An ecological model was developed to examine the pathways linking immigration state policies to physically safe work conditions and work volition, interpersonal discrimination, and mental health distress. The ecological framework was tested among two subsamples totaling 529 Latinx immigrant participants: (1) immigrants who resided in states ...
