Ultrasonic Vibration Assisted Laser Processing: A Hybrid Paradigm for Extreme Surface Enhancement

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Traditional laser processing techniques offer many advantages, but they often encounter limitations such as heat‐affected zones, recast layers, residual tensile stresses, and poor surface finish. The integration of ultrasonic vibration (UV) presents a promising hybrid approach to overcome these challenges by introducing beneficial effects like

Comparison of potential-induced degradation (PID) off n-type and p-type silicon solar cells

, 2018
Potential-induced degradation (PID) of photovoltaic (PV) modules is one of the most severe types of degradation, where power losses on system level may even exceed 30%.

Automated Lawn Maintenance: An Agronomic and Operational Review of Turf Health, Biodiversity, and Field Performance

Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 7, Page 4603-4623, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Grass mowing is one of the most resource‐consuming activities in green maintenance, whether in private areas such as home gardens or in public spaces like urban parks. In recent years, concerns related to climate change, human health, and sustainability have become increasingly prominent in green maintenance, leading manufacturers and industry

Complementary Control Strategies for Floating Offshore Wind Turbines: Gain Scheduling With LQG Enhancement and Equivalent Wind Speed–Based Individual Pitch

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates control strategies for large‐scale floating offshore wind turbines using the semi‐submersible IEA 15‐MW turbine as a benchmark. A gain‐scheduled PI (GSPI) controller is firstly established as the baseline for collective pitch control (CPC).

Thermal Safety Margins and Peak Leaf Temperatures Predict Vulnerability of Diverse Plant Species to an Experimental Heatwave

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 10, Page 7526-7538, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Extreme heat can push plants beyond their thermal safety margin (TSM) if maximum leaf temperature (Tleaf_max) exceeds leaf critical temperature (Tcrit). The TSM is potentially useful for assessing heat vulnerability across species but needs further validation, so we exposed 50 tree/shrub species in controlled glasshouses to a 6‐day heatwave ...

Enhancing Reference Tracking in Induction Motor Drives: A Hybrid Model Predictive Control and Artificial Neural Network Approach

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, Volume 36, Issue 14, Page 6719-6738, 25 September 2026.
ABSTRACT Induction motors (IMs) are widely used in industry for their robustness and cost‐effectiveness, yet their nonlinear and multivariable dynamics pose significant challenges for high‐performance speed control. Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a well‐established solution but suffers from limitations related to model accuracy and parameter ...

High‐Temperature Nanoindentation of Metals: Assessing Thermal Drift, Frame Compliance, and Chemical Composition Effects on the Reported Mechanical Properties

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 17, 9 September 2026.
Do not let thermal drift and instrument artifacts deceive high‐temperature nanoindentation results. We compare classical Oliver–Pharr and automatic image recognition analyses across steels and a Ni alloy to quantify these effects. Accounting for artifacts reveals systematic softening with temperature, while Cr and Ni additions boost resistance ...
