Standing on a common ground: a comparison of static stability approaches for pallet loading

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract At the practical level, the static stability constraint is one of the most important constraints in practical pallet loading problems, such as air cargo palletizing. Approaches to modeling static stability, which range from base support and mechanical equilibrium calculations to physical simulation, differ in workflow, focus, and assumptions ...

Exposure to Subcutaneously Administered Butorphanol in Horses Pre‐Treated With Detomidine or Detomidine‐Vatinoxan

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of the study was to determine the exposure to subcutaneously administered butorphanol in horses pre‐treated with intravenous (IV) detomidine, with or without vatinoxan, a peripherally selective alpha2‐adrenoceptor antagonist. Five healthy, adult horses received three IV treatments 7 days apart, in a randomized, cross‐over design ...

Competing Under Oath: Can Honesty Pledges Reduce Cheating in Competitive Environments?

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT People frequently compete with one another for awards, benefits, contracts, positions, or roles. One of the regulatory challenges in these contexts lies in preventing people from making dishonest claims to win such competitions. Honesty pledges, asking people to commit to ethical behavior ex ante, have been found to reduce cheating under non ...

Pharmacological manipulation of the immediate effects of spinal trauma in neonatal rats reveals a crucial role for TRPV4 receptors

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A, schematic illustration of the ventral aspect of an ex vivo preparation of the entire CNS from a neonatal rat subjected to a calibrated thoracic impact. The trauma induced a large depolarising injury potential (DIP, black trace) recorded from the L5 ventral root (VRrL5), which was markedly reduced by transient receptor ...

Analysis of surface roughness and machining performance of AZ91 magnesium alloy cut by WEDM

Acta Polytechnica
AZ91 magnesium alloys have poor machinability when conventional chip removal processes are used due to their low thermal stability and high susceptibility to softening and oxidation at elevated temperatures, which lead to excessive tool wear, poor ...

Chemical Profiling and Biological Activity of Copaiba Oil‐Resin Samples and Development of HPLC‐DAD Method for the Analysis of β‐Caryophyllene

Biomedical Chromatography, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The Copaifera species are traditionally used for their anti‐inflammatory, antiseptic and healing properties. The objective of this study was to compare the chromatographic profiles of seven samples of copaiba oil‐resin with respect to chromatographic and physicochemical properties and to evaluate their biological activities.

Ischemic Colitis Secondary to Mesenteric Arteriovenous Malformation: A Rare Cause of Bowel Ischemia—Case Report and Literature Review

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Ischemic colitis is the most common form of intestinal ischemia, typically caused by a temporary reduction in blood flow to the colon. It is often linked to atherosclerosis, low blood pressure, or embolism. We present a case of ischemic colitis with atypical location due to an inferior mesenteric arteriovenous malformation (inferior mesenteric
