Graph Drawing Techniques for Geographic Visualization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Geovisualizers often need to represent data that consists of items related together. Such data sets can be abstracted to a mathematical structure, the graph.

Three‐parameter kinematic theory for shear assessment of reinforced concrete short columns

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This work presents a rational kinematics‐based model for assessing the shear capacity of rectangular reinforced concrete short columns. Due to their high stiffness and brittleness, short columns are particularly vulnerable to seismic forces, often exhibiting critical failures.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Distributed k‐WTA Network for Multi‐Manipulator Competition With Experimental Verifications

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this article, a new distributed k $k$‐winner‐take‐all (Dk $k$‐WTA) network is designed and used to construct a dynamic allocation scheme for competitive coordination tasks of multiple manipulators as embodied agents. The scheme is constructed based on the following two aspects. On one hand, with reference to a perspective that the Laplacian

FPGA‐Based Real‐Time Implementation of Closed‐Loop Brain‐Controlled Eye Movement System

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a comprehensive closed‐loop brain‐eye movement framework, spanning parametric modelling, dynamic analysis and real‐time FPGA implementation. A simplified first‐order oculomotor model was derived from the classical Robinson formulation to preserve the essential neural‐mechanical feedback structure while enabling efficient ...

TriadAuth: Continuous Authentication Through Structured GUI Sequence Modelling With Drift Adaptation and Modality‐Aware Explanations

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Continuous authentication (CA) systems based on behavioural biometrics are increasingly deployed in zero‐trust architectures, yet their performance degrades over time due to natural behavioural drift arising from device changes, fatigue and evolving habits.

Study on the Power‐Frequency Arc Extinction Characteristics of Semi‐Closed Short‐Gap Device

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multi‐chamber arc‐extinguishing devices have a simple structure and excellent arc‐extinguishing performance; thus, they have attracted considerable attention as lightning protection devices. However, the structural parameters of different models of the aforementioned devices vary, leading to inconsistent protection levels; therefore, the arc ...

A validated 3D point‐cloud analysis workflow for the creation of seagrass canopy height models

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Seagrasses support highly productive ecosystems in both temperate and tropical waters and provide essential ecosystem services. Despite their importance, the vertical structure of seagrasses (i.e. the canopy) remains poorly characterised at the microscale, even though it is a strong predictor of ecological processes that influence both ...

Polypropylene Nanoplastic Exposure to Respiratory Epithelial Barrier‐On‐Chip and Interfacial Interactions With Human Serum Albumin

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Exposure to 305 nm PP NPs significantly disrupts the airway barrier‐on‐chip, reducing TEER, suppressing ZO‐1/ACE2 expression, and triggering ROS‐mediated apoptosis. In biological media, PP NPs exhibit a biphasic adsorption pattern, leading to the formation of a protein corona that increases their size to 364 nm.

Impact of Chemotherapy on Sperm Functional Characteristics in Patients With Testicular Germ Cell Tumours

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCT) are the most common malignancies among young men and represent a major threat to reproductive health. Both the disease itself and oncological treatments, particularly chemotherapy, can compromise spermatogenesis and semen quality.
