Smart selective navigator (SSN): enhancing urban winter road maintenance through optimized arc routing with hard turn restrictions

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 3580-3597, September 2026.
Abstract This paper introduces a novel heuristic method, the smart selective navigator (SSN), for addressing arc routing problems (ARPs) with a focus on integrating hard turn restrictions in urban winter operations. Addressing a significant gap in existing ARP methodologies, SSN seamlessly incorporates common side constraints, such as vehicle ...

An Optically Transparent, Lightweight, High‐Efficiency, and Ultra‐Broadband Polarization Converter Based on a Low‐Filling‐Factor Metallic Frame Metasurface

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
The graphical abstract presents the unit‐cell architecture of the proposed transparent metasurface polarization converter, featuring a low‐filling‐factor rotated copper frame on PET, an air‐cavity spacer, and an ITO ground plane. The design enables optical transparency, lightweight construction, and ultra‐broadband, high‐efficiency cross‐polarization ...

Electrohydraulic Folding Ring Actuators for Radially Contracting Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 44, 7 August 2026.
This work presents an Electrohydraulic Folding Ring Actuator that combines high‐performance electrohydraulic actuation with origami‐inspired folding geometry to achieve constricting radial actuation. This integration yields significant inner lumen constriction, alongside a gripping force capable of holding objects exceeding four times the actuator's ...

Bright and Durable Copper‐Iodide‐Based Nanowire Scintillators

open access: yesAggregate, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
A surface‐protective‐agent (SPA)‐coordinated low‐temperature crystallization strategy regulates the surface microenvironment of CsCu2I3 nanowires at the atomic level. The SPA simultaneously suppresses iodine‐vacancy‐related defects and nonradiative recombination while eliminating Cu2+ species and surface oxide formation, offering a coherent pathway to ...
