A Line-Based Algorithm for Container Routing in Shipping Networks

open access: yesFuture Transportation
This paper proposes an integrated routing framework for liner shipping networks in which the routing decision concerns the movement of one or more containers from an origin to a destination, jointly addressing topological feasibility, temporal ...

A Two‐Stage Characterization Pipeline and Open‐Source Framework for Reproducible Tactile Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The same soft tactile sensor returns different numbers when embodied in different robots. This is an Embodiment Gap that no shared framework currently captures transparently. A two‐stage characterization pipeline, paired with a FAIR open‐source digital datasheet, decouples intrinsic sensor behavior from embodiment effects and condenses cross‐laboratory

Flow-Balanced Scheduled Routing and Robust Refueling for Inland LNG-Fuelled Liner Shipping

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Inland LNG-fuelled liner shipping is emerging as a significant trend, yet limited refueling infrastructure presents operational challenges. The complexity of inland navigation requires frequent speed adjustments to meet scheduled arrivals, which directly

The psychosocial toll of Dublin III on asylum seekers in the Netherlands

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Dublin III Regulation determines which EU Member State is responsible for examining asylum claims, but its implementation carries significant consequences for those subjected to it. This study examines how Dublin III, as implemented in the Netherlands, affects asylum seekers' psychosocial wellbeing using Silove′s Adaptation and Development

Covalent Immobilisation of PVA‐MA Hydrogels on Plasma‐Activated Coatings: Achieving Superior Adhesion by Reagent‐Free Formation of a Nanoscale Primer Layer

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Robust attachment of hydrogels to solid substrates is critical to success in cell culture where hydrostatic and contractile forces can contribute to delamination of weakly adhered gels. This novel approach forms a nanometer‐scale, reagent‐free hydrogel primer layer to provide improved resistance to delamination of subsequent bulk hydrogel layers in a ...

Wood Sawdust as a Low‐Cost Filler in Whole‐Tire Reclaimed Rubber: Mechanical Characterization and Factory‐Scale Cost Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Whole‐tire reclaimed rubber is upgraded with wood sawdust, a carpentry by‐product available at no cost, across loadings from 0 to 20 wt%. At 5 wt%, tensile strength, elongation, hardness, viscosity, and water absorption all stay within commercial specification, and real factory data show an annual production saving near $62,000 with no capital ...
