Intelligent Operator‐Independent Flexibility in Robotic Non‐Destructive Evaluation

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
Non‐destructive evaluation of high‐value components remains a manufacturing bottleneck due to rigid robotic calibration and fixturing. This study presents a flexible, adaptable system integrating 3D vision and force‐position control with a collaborative KUKA LBR robot. The geometry‐agnostic system enables pose‐independent ultrasonic inspection, detects

On the optimal control of a linear neutral differential equation arising in economics [PDF]

In this paper, we apply two optimization methods to solve an optimal control problem of a linear neutral differential equation (NDE) arising in economics. The first one is a variational method, the second follows a dynamic programming approach.

Numeracy, literacy, and formal education as mechanisms of inequities in late‐life cognitive performance between Indigenous‐speaking and non–Indigenous‐speaking older Mexican adults

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Indigenous adults face educational inequities, but it is unclear how education, literacy, and numeracy contribute to disparities in late‐life cognition. METHODS This study included 1958 adults ages 55+ (mean 68.1 [8.9 SD] years) from the Mexican Health and Aging Study (MHAS) Ancillary Study on Cognitive Aging (Mex‐Cog; 2016 ...

Beyond DPA: An Atomistic Framework for a Quantitative Description of Radiation Damage in YBa2Cu3O7

Small Science, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2026.
To quantify primary radiation damage and describe defect morphology in the high‐temperature superconductor YBa2Cu3O7, an atomistic multiscale framework is proposed. Coupling Molecular Dynamics and Binary Collision Approximation simulations and integrating the atomistic description with Primary Knock‐on Atom spectra from Monte Carlo and transport ...

The Cross‐Linguistic Transfer of Self‐Regulated Learning Strategy Use From L1 to L2: The Moderating Role of L2 Learning Motivation and Exposure

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 1282-1292, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Self‐regulated learning (SRL) as a key predictor of language learning has been widely studied, but few studies have examined it from a cross‐linguistic perspective. The present study investigated whether first language (L1) SRL strategy use transfers to second language (L2) SRL strategy use and the conditions under which this transfer occurs ...

Engineering of 10‐Deacetylbaccatin III‐10‐β‐O‐Acetyltransferase From Taxus Species for Efficient Acetylating Non‐Natural Substrates Into Taxol in Nicotiana benthamiana

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 3308-3323, May 2026.
ABSTRACT 7‐β‐xylosyl‐10‐deacetyltaxol (XDT) is much more abundant than the anticancer drug Taxol in Taxus species and is usually regarded as the by‐product of Taxol. It could be enzymatically transformed into 10‐deacetyltaxol (DT), and the latter could be further converted into Taxol.
