Integrating Image Segmentation and Deep Learning to Improve Radio Frequency Propagation Models

International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper proposes a multi‐sensor approach to improve radio frequency (RF) propagation models, which play a key role in the rapidly expanding field of connected vehicle technology. Focusing on the 1‐ to 20‐GHz frequency range, which is critical for both satellite‐to‐vehicle and base station‐to‐vehicle communications, our study introduces a ...

Steady‐State and Dynamic Behavior of Geometry‐Tunable Microfluidic Passive Flow Regulators

Small, EarlyView.
Passive microfluidic flow regulators exhibit geometry‐dependent dynamic behavior, where channel width governs the resistance–compliance interactions within the system. Narrow channels produce faster responses with higher bandwidth, while wider channels yield slower responses and stronger attenuation.

A comparison of thermal drones and camera trap population estimates for Sitka black‐tailed deer in Alaska

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
One of the most difficult challenges for wildlife managers is reliably estimating wildlife populations. Camera traps combined with spatial capture–recapture (SCR) models are a popular tool for population estimation. They have limitations, however, including long data processing times.

Mixed Super‐Circles

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We introduce mixed super‐circles, a position‐curvature formulation of the original dynamic 2D super‐helix model. Compared to the latter, purely curvature‐based model – the so‐called chained formulation –, the mixed formulation that we propose here drastically reduces the algorithmic complexity of the solving scheme – from quadratic to quasi ...

Fast Nodal Hessian Computation for Peridynamic Fracture Simulation

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
A fast, exact nodal Hessian computation for Non‐Ordinary State‐Based Peridynamics is introduced through analytical simplification and a warp‐centric GPU strategy. The method accelerates preconditioned solvers and Vertex Block Descent, enabling interactive fracture simulation with physical accuracy.

Functional morphology of trabecular bone in the calcaneus of African apes

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Pan exhibits significantly higher calcaneal tuberosity trabecular thickness (Tb.Th) and bone volume fraction (BV/TV) than Gorilla, potentially reflecting higher triceps surae forces for vertical climbing. Both taxa have significantly higher Tb.Th and BV/TV in the anterior calcaneus; the difference is exaggerated in Gorilla, potentially reflecting ...

Visible, near‐, and thermal infrared spectra of asteroid Bennu samples: Relationship to and implications for remote sensing of carbonaceous asteroids

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Remote spectroscopy is used to characterize the mineralogy and infer the history of planetary bodies. Carbonaceous asteroids, such as B‐type (101955) Bennu, represent the earliest stages of planet formation. B types have a blue (negative) spectral slope and comprise <5% of asteroids.

Preference‐Based Representations for Collective Agency

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Computational accounts of learning and decision‐making in cognitive systems, and models thereof, such as reinforcement learning, typically assume that the behavior of individual agents is determined by an externally designated reward signal such that the agent's goal is the maximization of its expected accumulated reward under the state ...

Determining properties of human‐induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived cardiomyocytes using spatially resolved electromechanical metrics

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend In this study, we use human‐induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived cardiomyocyte (hiPSC‐CM) experiments and computational modelling to identify the mechanism of action of drug compounds. In the hiPSC‐CM experiments, optical measurements of cell collections are recorded in the baseline case and after drug exposure.

Electrodiffusion in cardiac intercalated disc nanostructures alters cell–cell action potential transmission via ephaptic coupling: A model study

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Ephaptic phenomena in a high‐resolution model of the cardiac intercalated disc. Meshed representation of a tortuous intercalated disc that was generated based on electron and super‐resolution microscopy data. Na+ channels (red) and gap junctions (green) are heterogeneously distributed, with additional regions of reduced ion ...
