Model Predictive Control of Gas Networks Based on Port‐Hamiltonian Formulations
ABSTRACT To efficiently compute optimal compressor actions in gas networks, we investigate port‐Hamiltonian models consisting of linear and a nonlinear model assumptions. The control actions are derived via adjoint‐based gradients that incorporate the constraints of the underlying optimization problem. We then present results from the implementation of

Impact of Poverty on Health in Developing Countries
This study found that poverty is a key constraint on health in developing countries, and that poverty reduction in low‐ to moderate‐level poverty has a more significant marginal effect on health improvement, far exceeding the impact of economic growth alone.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Caregiver‐mediated interventions are commonly used by Speech and Language Therapists to support early language development. Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) is associated with reduced quality of life throughout the lifespan. Understanding factors that predict intervention success is essential for developing appropriate,

Key Points Measurement of 86Sr at count rates < 1500 cps can result in statistical bias. Non‐linear signals in analogue detection mode (e.g., Rb) present a challenge for accurately dating high 87Rb/86Sr mica (> 1000). Accounting for these considerations, high 87Rb/86Sr mica are dated here with accuracies of ∼ 1%.

Production routing decisions in a two‐echelon supply chain with multiple delivery modes
Abstract We study an original two‐echelon production routing problem with multiple delivery modes (2E‐PRP‐MDM). In the first echelon, the primary production facility is tasked with satisfying the demands of two distinct entities: a set of warehouses and a set of customers through direct shipments. In the second echelon, warehouses become delivery hubs,

ABSTRACT Background For older people and those with more comorbidities, kidney replacement therapy may not offer a mortality benefit. Conservative kidney management represents an alternative treatment pathway for kidney failure without dialysis. Objectives To identify the clinical and socioeconomic factors associated with choosing a non‐dialysis care ...

Lucilia sericata larvae secrete bioactive compounds that promote wound debridement and antimicrobial defence in chronic tissue injuries. Achillea sintenisii extract offers phytotherapeutic support, enhancing healing through anti‐inflammatory and regenerative properties. Diabetic Wistar rats were treated topically with Furacin®, larval secretions, plant

Long‐term effects of clear‐cutting forestry on ectomycorrhizal fungi in boreal forest
Summary Clear‐cutting is detrimental to ectomycorrhizal fungi in a short time perspective, but long‐term effects on species richness and community composition are uncertain. To evaluate ecological sustainability of rotation forestry, we examined to what extent communities similar to those in old forests develop within the time frame of a rotation ...

Global Evidence for Off‐Axis Flexural Modification of Abyssal Hill Faults at Mid‐Ocean Ridges
Abstract Young oceanic lithosphere flexes as axial topography decays across mid‐ocean ridge shoulders, yet this deformation has been quantified at only a few segments, leaving its global expression poorly constrained. We analyzed 50 across‐axis bathymetric profiles from 21 regions spanning slow to fast spreading rates, identified 1,201 abyssal‐hill ...

Drawing inspiration from the layered hard‐soft architecture found in sea sponges, this work establishes a new framework for architected cementitious composites (ACC) through multi‐material additive manufacturing (MMAM) process. The integration of mortar and elastomer phases into layered architectures enables synergistic toughening mechanisms, including
