Dam Management in the Era of Climate Change
ABSTRACT Climate change has a dramatic impact, particularly by concentrating rainfall into a few short periods, interspersed with long dry spells. In this context, the role of dams is crucial. We consider the optimal control of a dam, where the water level must neither exceed a designated safety threshold nor fall below a minimum level to ensure ...

Solvability and Boundedness in Chemotaxis‐Consumption Models With Oppositely Acting Nonlocal Sources
ABSTRACT In this paper, we investigate a chemotaxis system featuring a class of external source terms that incorporate both local and nonlocal growth as well as dampening effects. The model describes the evolution of a cell density u$$ u $$, which migrates in response to a chemical signal v$$ v $$, within an impermeable habitat.

Multiphysics Simulation of Positive Streamer Discharge in Air Using Finite Element Method
ABSTRACT Streamer discharge modeling by means of the Finite Element Method (FEM) presents a formidable challenge in computational physics due to its nonlinear and convection‐dominated characteristics that cause numerical instabilities, including negative densities of charged particles.

Multi‐Objective Inverse Design of a Dual‐Narrowband Thermal Emitter for Optical Gas Sensing
A lithography‐free, wafer‐scale dual‐narrowband thermal emitter is developed using a multi‐objective inverse design framework. It comprises an aperiodic Si/SiO2 dielectric multilayer deposited on a TiN refractory conductive ceramic film. Its dual emission peaks match characteristic absorption bands of CH4 and NO2 and enhance responses to both gases ...

Large Rabi Splitting Driven by Plasmon‐Enhanced Hybrid Anapole States in Si–Au–WSe2 Heterostructures
A silicon hybrid‐anapole microcavity coupled with a plasmonic array enables tripartite strong coupling with WSe2 excitons. Spatially extended field enhancement and coherent cavity–plasmon hybridization strengthen light–matter interactions, producing a giant 330 meV Rabi splitting at room temperature and offering a compact platform for low‐exciton ...

Nonlocal longitudinal resonances in ultrathin AlN enable thickness‐controlled harmonic matching between a resonance at the fundamental frequency and the Berreman resonance at the second‐harmonic frequency. The resulting simultaneous field enhancement at both frequencies substantially amplifies the predicted second‐harmonic response, revealing a double ...

Surface Expression of the Kuroshio Extension Northern Recirculation Gyre
Abstract The Northern Recirculation Gyre (NRG) of the Kuroshio Extension (KE) has traditionally been viewed as subsurface‐intensified and difficult to identify at the sea surface. We combine a 2016–2025 subsurface mooring record, satellite altimetry, Argo trajectory‐based velocities, and historical near‐bottom velocities to reassess the sea‐surface ...

Abstract Compound heat and ozone (O3) pollution events are widespread and pose significant health risks in urban areas. In the Southern Great Plains (SGP), where heat waves are becoming more frequent and intense, these compound events represent a growing environmental and public health concern, underscoring the need for improved process‐based ...

T(w)o Patch or Not T(w)o Patch: A Novel Biocontrol Model
ABSTRACT A number of top‐down biocontrol models have been proposed where the introduced predators' efficacy is enhanced via the provision of additional food (AF). However, if the predator has a pest‐dependent monotone functional response, pest extinction is unattainable. In the current manuscript, we propose a model where a predator with pest‐dependent

ABSTRACT Predicting structural lifetime under complex loading remains a major challenge in computational mechanics, especially for high cycle fatigue in large scale systems such as aircraft, bridges, and wind turbines. This difficulty arises from the need to capture fatigue damage accumulation, crack initiation, crack growth across scales, and life ...
