Identifying Unique Subgroups of Emotional and Behavioral Presentations in a Large Inpatient and Community Sample of Autistic Youth

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autistic youth exhibit wide variability in emotional and behavioral challenges, yet few studies have identified meaningful subgroups based on these profiles. This study applied a random forests ensemble clustering algorithm to item‐level parent‐report data from the Emotion Dysregulation Inventory (EDI) and the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL ...

Rutting prediction models for flexible pavement structures: A review of historical and recent developments

open access: yesJournal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online), 2021
Rutting is the major distress mode in flexible pavements occurring due to the repeated movement of traffic loading. Deformation in the pavements comprise of both recoverable (elastic) and irrecoverable (plastic) part. Overall deformation occurring in the

Cortical Network Overconnectivity Relates to Sensory, Cognitive, and Social Dimensions in Young Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The heterogeneity in both the neurobiological mechanisms and the phenotypic presentations of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) poses a major challenge to clinical and translational research. Alterations in functional connectivity (FC) have been associated with ASD, yet it remains unclear whether and how divergent brain network properties may ...

Breaking point: Identifying the factors that predict suspension from school

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract School suspensions are associated with adverse educational and psychosocial outcomes, yet little is known about how structural disadvantage, relational factors, health behaviours, well‐being indicators and school‐level factors jointly predict suspension risk in England.

Evidence for adaptive explanations of semelparity in animals

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Semelparity, the reproductive strategy of reproducing once, is widespread but uncommon in animals. Classes of models to explain the evolution of semelparity are based either on age structure and mortality schedules – demographic models in which high post‐reproductive mortality risk favours high reproductive effort and semelparity results from ...

Effects of Mix Factors on the Mechanistic-Empirical Flexible Pavement Design

open access: yesDesigns, 2019
This study investigates the sensitivity of the mechanistic-empirical flexible pavement design performance parameters such as cracking, rutting, and smoothness to mix factors for 11 categories of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures.

Utility and Emotion: A Combined Economic‐Psychological Approach to Understanding Consumer Preferences for Social Farming Products

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACTSocial farming integrates agricultural activities with social and rehabilitative functions, offering significant benefits to communities. However, its economic sustainability depends, among other factors, on consumer acceptance and willingness to pay a premium for its products.

Prediction of Permanent Deformation of Foamed and Emulsified Sulfur Asphalt Soils Mixes

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering Research, 2016
This paper presents a study carried out to evaluate and compare the permanent deformation of marginal soils. Under consideration were marl, sabkha and dune sand stabilized with foamed and emulsified sulfur asphalt (FSA, ESA) with mixes of the same soils ...

Three-dimensional finite element analysis for structural parameters of asphalt pavement: A combined laboratory and field accelerated testing approach

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2022
To solve the issues that material parameters measured under specific laboratory conditions are extremely different from the actual pavement, a method of structural parameters correction in semi-rigid base asphalt pavement combining numerical simulations,

Fish Scales: A Multifunctional Biomaterial from Nature

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Fish scales demonstrate nature's solution to impact protection through overlapping multilayered architecture. This biological design combines mineralized surfaces with collagen networks to achieve both flexibility and fracture resistance. The structural principles inspire advanced protective materials and biomedical implants, where damage tolerance ...
