Embedding Rule‐Based Augmented Reality Scaffolding in Experiential Learning Cycles: An SEM Study of Student Engagement in Lab‐Based STEM

Computer Applications in Engineering Education, Volume 34, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Augmented reality (AR) is increasingly used in STEM laboratories, but its pedagogical value depends on how digital guidance is embedded within structured physical learning activities rather than on technological novelty alone. This study examined an AR‐supported hydropower laboratory activity designed around Kolb's experiential learning cycle ...

Adaptive Turbine Replacement Improves Hydropower Flexibility in a Changing Climate

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Hydropower plants will operate under new conditions as water regimes shift, reservoir operating rules evolve, and the grid requires flexible balancing of wind and solar. Hydropower plant turbine systems are traditionally designed to operate at the highest efficiency within narrow ranges of flow and reservoir levels while deviations from design

Integrated Renewable Energy for Urban and Remote Communities: Hybrid Solutions with Hydro Pumped Storage and Green Hydrogen Opportunities

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 5, May 2026.
Urban and remote communities face inefficiencies from centralized power grids. This study assesses hybrid renewable energy systems with storage, integrating pumped hydro and hydrogen. Through modeling and optimization, demand–supply balance improves. The base case achieves low LCOE, strong returns, and energy export potential.

Using Multiple Regression Models and Methods to Estimate Fatigue‐Life Distributions and Construct Constant‐Life Diagrams

Applied Stochastic Models in Business and Industry, Volume 42, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Fatigue is the most common reliability failure mechanism and has been studied widely since the 19th century. Material specimens are used in laboratory experiments to obtain fatigue test data. An S‐N curve is used to depict the relationship between the stress (or strain) S$$ S $$ and the number of cycles to failure N$$ N $$. Statistical methods
