A crystal PDF full‐space refinement approach integrates Bragg diffraction and total scattering to evaluate stacking faults and PDF degradation caused by point defects in ruthenium nanoparticles. This method unveils distinct size‐dependent stacking evolution in fcc‐ and hcp‐based systems, providing a unified and quantitative approach for nanoscale ...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were successfully debundled from Tuball soots produced using iron nanocatalysts in arc discharge thermal plasma and distributed on monolayer graphene for HRTEM imaging for mechanistic insights into CNT synthesis. Zigzag single‐wall or double‐wall CNTs were identified.

Multi‐level fatigue reliability assessment of reinforced concrete railway bridges
Abstract This paper presents a multi‐level reliability framework for assessing the fatigue life of reinforced concrete (RC) railway trough bridges subjected to cyclic loading. The framework incorporates increasing levels of analytical complexity and real‐world data in four steps. First, an analytical model applies S–N curves and the Palmgren–Miner rule

Estimating red deer Cervus elaphus population density using drones in a steep and rugged terrain
Precise and accurate information about population density, crucial for wildlife management, is difficult to obtain for elusive species living in dense forests or steep and inaccessible terrain. Using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), we developed a method for obtaining absolute population estimates of ungulates living in steep, rugged, and partly ...

Intra‐ and Interspecific Effects on Spatio‐Temporal Behavior of Common Commensal Rodent Species
This study revealed major findings on spatio‐temporal behavior of commensal rodents on a pig farm showing the influence of interspecific dominance on movement behavior and the resulting species‐specific ecological adaptations. Additionally, rodents tend to stay in their home ranges and migration to other stable buildings is only rare.

Mitigating policy uncertainty: What financial markets reveal about firm‐level lobbying
Abstract Elections can lead to substantial policy changes and, thus, are a significant source of risk. Firms can respond to such policy uncertainty by lobbying, but it is hard to quantify whether they do so and, if so, how much lobbying benefits them. We construct a new dataset and leverage investors’ expectations of variability in stock returns in the

Abstract Smallholder market participation studies often focus narrowly on selling decisions, overlooking the institutional role of agricultural cooperatives, particularly in contexts like Rwanda, where cooperatives underpin agricultural policy. Consequently, empirical evidence on how cooperative membership shapes farmers’ commercialization across ...

Application of Multi‐Method Dating for Understanding the Gravettian North of Moravia, Central Europe
ABSTRACT This article presents the results of integrating three methods to assess the age of the Upper Palaeolithic site of Pietraszyn 11 (SW Poland), close to the Moravian Gate. Sediment chronology determined using optically stimulated luminescence produced promising, yet ambiguous results (51.0 ± 3.7 to 20.3 ± 0.7 ka).

No added cost: Emotion recognition in co‐occurring ADHD and ASD
Abstract Objectives Facial emotion recognition (FER) is fundamental for social interaction, yet this ability is often impaired in attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or autism spectrum disorder (ASD). While research has documented these difficulties, two key questions remain: Are these deficits specific to recognising emotions or do they ...

More adequate probability distributions to represent the saturated soil hydraulic conductivity
The saturated soil hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) is one of the most relevant variables in studies of water and solute movement in the soil. Its determination in the laboratory and in the field yields high dispersion results, which could be an indication ...
