Optimisation of Temporary and Demountable Flood Protection for Infrastructure Resilience
Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.ABSTRACT Infrastructure systems provide crucial services to human settlements. Extreme weather events, especially flooding, can disrupt these vital services. Temporary and demountable flood protections (TDFPs) are increasingly used to protect infrastructure assets and provide resilience.

Low‐Velocity Impact Response of Nacre‐Inspired E‐Glass/Epoxy Composites With Varying Platelet Sizes
Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 3, Page 2781-2798, 10 February 2026.Impact response of nacre‐inspired E‐glass/epoxy composites with different platelet sizes. ABSTRACT This study explores the low‐velocity impact behavior of nacre‐inspired biomimetic platelet composites (NIBPC), using low‐cost E‐glass fiber in chopped strand mat (CSM) form as reinforcement and epoxy resin as the matrix.

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 764-779, February 2026.Based on entropy theory, this study presents a comparative numerical analysis of the flow energy dissipation (FED) in a VTSP under two distinct operating conditions: pump condition and turbine condition, both characterized by relatively high hydraulic efficiencies of 88.9% and 87.4%, respectively. In pump condition, the highest FED production occurs in

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract This work considers the design‐for‐control of water distribution networks (WDN) for the joint optimization of performance and cost‐related objectives. In particular, we focus on the problem of optimizing the placement (design) and settings (control) of pressure reducing valves to minimize leakage at minimum cost.
