ABSTRACT Earthquake‐induced damage of structures can trigger cascading hazards, linking structural performance to nonstructural consequences. In current engineering practice, these two aspects are typically addressed separately, limiting the ability to account for such coupled effects in design.

Domain‐Knowledge‑Guided Rule Extraction for Governing Nepheline Amount in High‑Level Waste Glasses
ABSTRACT Nepheline crystallization during canister centerline cooling is one of the most constraining factors limiting waste loading in high‐level waste (HLW) borosilicate glasses. Existing predictive models treat nepheline formation as a binary outcome, yet durability degradation depends continuously on nepheline fraction.

Solution Synthesis of Actinide Chalcogenide and Oxychalcogenide Nanoparticles
We report the synthesis of UOS, UOSe, and US2 nanoparticles under colloidal conditions. The magnetic properties were measured of all three materials and compared to prior studies of UO2 nanoparticles. Nanoparticle phases were determined using powder diffraction, and size by transmission electron microscopy.

Optical Basicity of Glasses: Review and Application in Nuclear Glass Formulation
A self‐consistent set of optical basicity (OB) values was compiled and evaluated for 95 binary oxides using electronegativity, ionic–covalent, and optical‐property approaches, providing a robust basis for estimating the basicity of complex compounds and glasses.

ABSTRACT Accurate prediction of chemical durability, such as dissolution rate, is crucial for glass materials used in diverse applications, including pharmaceutical packaging and nuclear waste disposal. In this work, machine learning‐based prediction models were developed using structural descriptors derived from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and

Dam Management in the Era of Climate Change
ABSTRACT Climate change has a dramatic impact, particularly by concentrating rainfall into a few short periods, interspersed with long dry spells. In this context, the role of dams is crucial. We consider the optimal control of a dam, where the water level must neither exceed a designated safety threshold nor fall below a minimum level to ensure ...
