An automatic tree search algorithm for the Tisserand graph

Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2021
The Tisserand graph (TG) is a graphical tool commonly employed in the preliminary design of gravity-assisted trajectories. The TG is a two-dimensional map showing essential orbital information regarding the Keplerian orbits resulting from the close ...

Tolerability and Feasibility of Minimally Invasive Canine Skin Sampling: Excellent Tolerability Meets Transcriptomic Challenges

Veterinary Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Advances in transcriptomics have driven the demand for minimally invasive, reproducible and high‐yield skin sampling methods, particularly for studying inflammatory skin diseases in companion animals. Hypothesis/Objectives We tested tolerability, feasibility and RNA quantity and quality of three minimally invasive skin sampling ...

Machine Learning Model for an App‐Based Tool to Assist With the Diagnosis of Canine Atopic Dermatitis

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 236-246, April 2026.
Canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) is a chronic condition requiring life‐long management. Accurate diagnosis can be challenging, with no reliable diagnostic test. This study aimed to generate a simple diagnostic model for cAD. This model is a relevant prototype for an app‐based tool to support general practitioners in the diagnosis of cAD alongside ...

Deep Neural Networks for the Estimation of Masonry Structures Failures under Rockfalls

Geosciences, 2023
Although the principal aim of the rockfall management is to prevent rock boulders from reaching the buildings instead of the buildings resisting the boulder impacts, there usually exists a residual risk that has to be assessed, even when structural ...

Use of a Cytobrush for Sampling the Ear Canal of Dogs With Otitis Externa

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 227-235, April 2026.
Cytological examination of the ear canal is essential for evaluating dogs with otitis externa (OE). The conventional sampling method uses a swab. However, the cytobrush (gynaecological cervical brush), already used for cytological collection from other anatomical sites, has not been adequately investigated for this purpose in dogs with OE.

Fear in Public Policy Compliance: Citizens' Response to Crisis‐Induced Policies

European Policy Analysis, Volume 12, Issue 2, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT This article brings together social psychology and public policy literature in a mixed‐methods research design to explore how fear influences non‐compliance with challenging policies during crises. Building on Terror Management Theory, we argue that fear affects individual citizens' compliance tendencies.

On the Convergence of Conjugate Gradient and GMRES Algorithms in the Forward Backward Sweep Method for Optimal Control

Optimal Control Applications and Methods, Volume 47, Issue 2, Page 498-510, March/April 2026.
Optimal control combines state and adjoint equations, which yield the state (x$$ x $$) and adjoint (lambda) variables as a function of the control variables (u$$ u $$). This structure allows us to design strategies for iteratively updating the control variable, based on conjugate gradient (CG) or GMRES algorithms.

Adaptive Warning Thresholds for Dam Safety: A KDE-Based Approach

Infrastructures
Dams are critical infrastructures that provide essential services such as water supply, hydroelectric power generation, and flood control. As many dams age, the risk of structural failure increases, making safety assurance more urgent than ever ...
