SMART CITY CONTROL ROOMS: The Rewiring of Local Governance Landscapes in India
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 626-643, May 2026.Abstract Smart city control rooms are prominent components of the smart city discourse. They embody a long‐standing dream to visualize and manage multiple urban processes in real time through the collation of data flows. Previous research has produced important insights into the design, construction and operation of these facilities.

RUST AND REPARATIONS: Memory, Labor, and the Politics of Repair in Senegal's Railway Workshop
Cultural Anthropology, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 450-483, May 2026.ABSTRACT This essay examines the multivalences of repair in Senegalese railway workshops, where workers maintain and modify aging wagons from suburban and former transnational rail services, originally imported from France, and later from India and Pakistan. I trace three interrelated dimensions of repair.

High Voltage, Volume 11, Issue 2, Page 370-384, April 2026.ABSTRACT As the ‘main blood vessel’ of the traction power supply system for high‐speed trains, the ‘wheel‐rail’ coupling grounding reflux system provides the vital channel to send traction current back to terrestrial substations; meanwhile, the rail track also plays a role in transmitting the train's occupancy signal to the control system. An insulated

Monitoring Near‐Surface Changes Using Anthropogenic Seismic Vibrations
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.Abstract The abundance of anthropogenic seismic noise provides a valuable resource for monitoring dynamic subsurface property changes. We utilize railway and wind turbine‐induced vibrations recorded by a geophone array to estimate surface wave attenuation and velocity in the underlying glacial deposits of Illinois.
