Intra‐ and Interspecific Effects on Spatio‐Temporal Behavior of Common Commensal Rodent Species
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.This study revealed major findings on spatio‐temporal behavior of commensal rodents on a pig farm showing the influence of interspecific dominance on movement behavior and the resulting species‐specific ecological adaptations. Additionally, rodents tend to stay in their home ranges and migration to other stable buildings is only rare.

Robo‐Saber: Generating and Simulating Virtual Reality Players
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract We present the first motion generation system for playtesting virtual reality (VR) games. Our player model generates VR headset and handheld controller movements from in‐game object arrangements, guided by style reference gameplay examples. We train on the large BOXRR‐23 dataset and apply our framework on the popular VR game Beat Saber.

Solid slab strengthening in reinforced concrete
Informes de la Construccion, 1990 Es frecuente encontrar en edificación forjados a base de losa maciza de hormigón armado que precisan refuerzo, sea por cambio de uso o por deterioro, en este caso fundamentalmente debido a la corrosión de armaduras. El refuerzo de este tipo de elementos estructurales es más viable que el de los constituidos por viguetas debido a su mejor resistencia a ...

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 8, Page 1655-1674, 10 July 2026.ABSTRACT This article presents a capacity‐based assessment procedure for beam–column (b–c) joints of reinforced concrete frames with floor slabs and transverse beams. The procedure extends a previously proposed assessment methodology for determining the hierarchy of strengths and the sequence of events in symmetrically reinforced planar b–c joints.

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 7, Page 1514-1532, June 2026.ABSTRACT The rapid development of new railway networks and the aging of existing infrastructure in seismic‐prone regions continue to motivate the need for efficient methods to simulate the dynamic behavior of coupled train track structure systems. While detailed train–structure interaction (TSI) models can capture complex mechanisms, they are often too

Language Learning, Volume 76, Issue 2, Page 671-703, June 2026.Abstract Studies have explored the relationship between text readability and processing effort in second language (L2) reading—as evidenced by eye movements. However, these studies generally relied on short texts, raising concerns about the validity of the analyzed data. This study reexamined these relationships using open‐source eye‐tracking data from
