Optimal Seismic Design of Multiple Isolation Systems and Viscous Dampers in Vertically Irregular Frame Buildings

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a gradient‐based optimization framework for the preliminary seismic design of alternative isolation systems and fluid viscous dampers in vertically irregular 2D shear frames. The proposed method simultaneously optimizes the number, locations, and properties of isolation layers together with viscous damper coefficients ...

Medicine‐Food Plant Polysaccharides Modulate Diabetes and Diabetic Complications Through Maintaining Gut Function: A Review

Food Frontiers, EarlyView.
Polysaccharides derived from medicine‐food plants restore intestinal barrier integrity and microbiota balance while modulating short‐chain fatty acid levels. These modifications significantly alleviate diabetes and its complications, including nephropathy, retinopathy, cardiovascular disease, and neuropathy.

State‐of‐Art in Studying the Public Health Effects of Heat: A Literature Review

Global Challenges, EarlyView.
This review aims to consolidate current knowledge about the public health impact of heat. Pathophysiological mechanisms are well‐known, but an ‘environmental epidemiology’ perspective is essential to drive adaptation strategies. Abstract The impact of heat and heatwaves on human health constitutes a significant hazard, disproportionately affecting ...

Temperature‐robust exchange bias and spin‐orbit torque switching in van der Waals heterostructure

InfoMat, EarlyView.
Exchange bias (EB) in ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic materials enables high‐density spintronic devices. A Fe3GaTe2/NiPS3 heterostructure exhibits EB up to 150 K, with spin orbit torque switching observed in both stacking orders. Interface layer effects induce net magnetism and magnetization flipping via Fe3GaTe2 domains, with strong interlayer ...
