Estimation of Genetic Variance and Breeding Values for Infectious Disease Susceptibility From Simulated Longitudinal Data Using Generalized Linear Mixed Models Based on Transmission Dynamics

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 5, Page 639-657, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent theoretical work shows that the potential of genetic selection to reduce the prevalence of infectious diseases is much larger than expected from classical quantitative genetic theory, due to indirect genetic effects that arise in the transmission process. However, to fully benefit from these indirect effects, we need to estimate genetic

An insight into PWR primary water SCC mechanisms by comparing surface and crack oxidation

open access: yesCorrosion Science, 2019
Oxidation and stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of 316L stainless steel were studied in simulated pressurized water reactor primary water. Surface, crack flank, and crack tip oxides were analyzed and compared by high-resolution characterization, including ...

PWR AXIAL BURNUP PROFILE ANALYSIS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The purpose of this activity is to develop a representative ''limiting'' axial burnup profile for pressurized water reactors (PWRs), which would encompass the isotopic axial variations caused by different assembly irradiation histories, and produce conservative isotopics with respect to criticality.

Work‐Influenced Circadian Disruption Connected to Disease Risk but Not Microbiomes in a Cohort of Philadelphia Nurses

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Human Biology, Volume 38, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Circadian rhythms influence activity cycles in humans, and circadian rhythm disruption (CRD) can negatively impact cardiometabolic disease risk and microbiome composition. This study documented CRD in a sample of nurses in Philadelphia, examining connections between CRD, disease risk, and work environment factors, proposing the ...

Collective Grievance Promotes Collective Action and Aggressive Intergroup Inclinations Through Dehumanization Among Conservative Members of Dominant Groups

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Social Psychology, Volume 56, Issue 5, Page 959-978, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Previous research has focused on disadvantaged groups seeking social change, overlooking how dominant groups mobilize to preserve the status quo. Across three studies (two correlational, one experimental), we explored how collective grievance—the feeling of being or having been collectively wronged by an outgroup—drives system‐preserving ...

Disrupting the herd: Recreational boating alters group dispersion within beluga whale herds

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.
Recreational boating in beluga habitat remains poorly documented. Using land‐based observations in the Saguenay Fjord (Quebec, Canada), we show that increasing recreational boat numbers are associated with a higher probability of changes in beluga herd dispersion, suggesting behavioral disturbance and the need to integrate recreational boating into ...

Review of Electrical Parameters Influence on Characteristics of Plasma Electrolytic Oxide Coating on Zircaloy

open access: yesIndonesian Journal of Applied Physics
Zircaloy-4 (Zr-4) is used as a fuel cladding material in Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR). Zr-4 as a cladding material works in extreme conditions in pressurized water up to 150 atm at 325 ˚C.

Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder Awareness, Knowledge, and Practice Among Australian Occupational Therapists: A Cross‐Sectional Survey

open access: yesAustralian Occupational Therapy Journal, Volume 73, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Introduction Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) describes a spectrum of birth defects and developmental disabilities resulting from prenatal alcohol exposure. With a prevalence rate of 3.64%, developing an FASD‐informed occupational therapy workforce is essential across all practice contexts. Since the Australian diagnostic guidelines were

Comparison of oxide layers formed on the low-cycle fatigue crack surfaces of Alloy 690 and 316 SS tested in a simulated PWR environment

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2019
Low-cycle fatigue (LCF) tests were performed for Alloy 690 and 316 SS in a simulated pressurized water reactor (PWR) environment. Alloy 690 showed about twice longer LCF life than 316 SS at the test condition of 0.4% amplitude at strain rate of 0.004%/s.

The role of partisan news and political parasocial relationships in shaping meta‐perceptions: Cross‐national evidence

open access: yesPolitical Psychology, Volume 47, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Communities worldwide face growing polarization, often fueled by misperceptions. Across three studies, we investigate the relationship between partisan news media exposure and meta‐(mis)perceptions (e.g., meta‐prejudice, meta‐dehumanization) in the United States and Israel.
