Component importance measures for complex repairable system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In recent years, the system signature has been recognized as an important tool to quantify the reliability of systems consist of independent and identically distributed (iid) or exchangeable components with respect the random failure times.

Extending the survival signature paradigm to complex systems with non-repairable dependent failures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Dependent failures impose severe consequences on a complex system’s reliability and overall performance, and a realistic assessment, therefore, requires an adequate consideration of these failures.

A Dynamic Reliability Analysis for the Conditional Number of Working Components within a Structure

open access: yesStats
In the present work, we study the number of working units of a consecutive-type structure at a specific time point under the condition that the system’s failure has not been observed yet.

Unpacking ESG Controversies: A Proposed Integrated Framework of Organizational Frictions and Fallout From a Systematic Literature Review

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on ESG controversies has expanded rapidly, but findings remain fragmented and lack a unifying perspective. This study conducts a PRISMA‐guided, framework‐based systematic review of 68 empirical articles published between 2018 and 2025 (May) to synthesize the main determinants and consequences of ESG controversies.

Fly me to the canopy: Diptera communities in oak forest crowns as bioindicators of stand decline

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Diptera diversity: Oak decline increases the overall Diptera diversity, particularly in saproxylic and floricolous guilds, likely due to more open canopies and greater deadwood and floral resource availability. Family responses: Dolichopodidae, Empididae, Hybotidae and Anthomyiidae thrive in declining stands, whereas Mycetophilidae and other fungus ...

On the edge: liminal spaces in the novels of Benito Pérez Galdós [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Liminal spaces in Benito Pérez Galdós’s novels offer profound insights into the society, characters, and practices of representation in his art. By examining settings that lie at the intersection between public and private, domestic and commercial ...

Crossed cerebellar diaschisis in status epilepticus: A systematic review of the literature

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 262-274, April 2026.
Abstract Objective Crossed cerebellar diaschisis is a neuroimaging phenomenon observed in various neurological conditions, including status epilepticus. This systematic review aims to summarize the clinical and radiological characteristics of patients developing crossed cerebellar diaschisis following status epilepticus and to discuss potential ...

Quantifying Impacts of CO2 Radiative and Vegetation Physiological Forcing on Land Potential Evapotranspiration and Dryness/Wetness Changes Under a High CO2 Emissions Scenario

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Increased atmospheric CO2 affects climate through radiative and physiological forcing, but their specific roles in the transient changes in future potential evapotranspiration (PET) and dryness/wetness remain unclear. Using simulations from seven Earth System Models of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6, we quantify the ...

Lessons from an eradication under multiple constraints of an island rat population of record density

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Invasive rats threaten island biodiversity, disrupting ecosystems and endangering native species. Although rat eradication has succeeded on many islands, tropical islands present unique management challenges. Strict regulations and financial constraints on some tropical islands further limit proven eradication methods, complicating rodent ...
