“Cold Tropics”: Permafrost Existence and Thickness on Eastern Nevado Coropuna (Southern Peruvian Andes) Revealed by Ground‐Penetrating Radar and Geoelectrical Soundings

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The existence of permafrost was explored at tropical latitude on Nevado Coropuna (southern Peruvian Andes) using a combination of ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) and vertical electrical sounding (VES) in order to strengthen the mutual validation of data processing and interpretation.

Generalizing the Gaussian Network Model: Spanning‐Tree Thermodynamics Shows Entropy‐Driven KRAS Activation

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The GTPase KRAS executes a conformational switch between a GTP‐bound active state and a GDP‐bound inactive state, a process central to oncogenic signaling. However, the structural basis of this switching at the level of residue‐contact organization remains incompletely characterized by traditional binary structural models.

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 ...

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.

Multiple positive solutions to a p-Kirchhoff equation with logarithmic terms and concave terms

Open Mathematics
In this article, we focus on a class of pp-Kirchhoff-type equations that include logarithmic and concave terms. By applying the variational method, we establish the existence and multiplicity of positive solutions.

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 ...

Multiple positive solutions for Kirchhoff problems with sign-changing potential

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2015
In this article, we study the existence and multiplicity of positive solutions for a class of Kirchhoff type equations with sign-changing potential. Using the Nehari manifold, we obtain two positive solutions.

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 ...

Energy Decay of Solutions for a System of Higher-Order Kirchhoff Type Equations

Journal of New Theory, 2019
In this work, we considered asystem of higher-order Kirchhoff type equations with initial and boundaryconditions in a bounded domain. Under suitable conditions, we proved an energydecay result by Nakao's inequality techniques.
