Nonlinear Dynamic Solution via HAM and Its Application in Designing a Roller‐Cam Quasi‐Zero‐Stiffness Isolation System

Journal of Applied Mathematics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
In modern industry, vibration control is crucial for equipment safety, and high‐precision instruments require effective vibration reduction. The homotopy analysis method (HAM) can solve nonlinear problems without relying on small‐parameter assumptions, overcoming the limitations of traditional approaches.

Infrastructure Anomaly Detection: A Study of the Settefonti Bridge Through Continuous OMA and Artificial Intelligence

Structural Control and Health Monitoring, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This paper presents a novel approach for anomaly detection on the Settefonti Bridge by combining advanced operational modal analysis (OMA) technique with artificial intelligence. Ambient vibration data from accelerometers is processed using the covariance‐driven stochastic subspace identification (CoV‐SSI) method to extract modal parameters, which are ...

Design and Performance Analysis of an Origami‐Inspired Quasizero Stiffness Isolator With Lever Mechanisms

Shock and Vibration, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Vibration isolators are widely used to mitigate harmful vibrations in industrial machinery and electronic equipment, but low and ultralow frequency isolation remains challenging. Inspired by origami structures and lever mechanisms, a compact origami–lever quasizero‐stiffness (QZS) isolator is proposed in this paper, and its low frequency performance is

Airflow Features Obtained From Voluntary Throat Clearing Compared to Voluntary Cough and Induced Reflexive Cough in a Healthy Population

International Journal of Language &Communication Disorders, Volume 60, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Coughing and throat clearing are different airway protective manoeuvres elicited in the framework of dysphagia. However, coughing and throat clearing may be auditorily confused during a clinical swallowing evaluation. In addition, literature reporting comparisons between coughing and throat clearing via gold standard airflow metrics
