Enhancements in reservoir flood risk mapping: example application for Ulley

, 2014
In July 2007, at Ulley Reservoir, South Yorkshire, a catastrophic dam failure was narrowly avoided due to emergency preventative actions. During the event, a number of homes were evacuated and roads were closed for precautionary measures.

Human Capital Robotic Integration and Value Creation for Organizations

Journal of Organizational Behavior, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Due to rapid advancements in artificial intelligence and machine learning, the research conversation has drifted from viewing robots as replacements for humans (i.e., the substitute view) to a view that considers the possible benefits of human–robot collaboration in the workplace (i.e., the complementary view).

Biofilm removal capacity and titanium surface integrity in non‐abrasive versus abrasive peri‐implantitis cleaning interventions

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Current peri‐implantitis treatment methods are modeled after dental cleaning modalities like abrasive surface cleaning. However, mechanical abrasive cleaning not only inadequately removes implant biofilms but also compromises implant surface integrity with adverse biological effects.

Within-Event Spatially Distributed Bedload: Linking Fluvial Sediment Transport to Morphological Change [PDF]

, 2012
Maps of apparent bedload velocity are presented along with maps of associated channel change. Apparent bedload velocity is the bias in acoustic Doppler current profiler (aDcp) bottom track (Doppler sonar) due to near-bed particle motion (Rennie et al ...

A Retrospective Analysis Into the Effect of Punch Grafts in Patients With Chronic Ulcers of the Lower Leg

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Punch grafting was retrospectively evaluated in patients with chronic lower leg ulcers treated at Erasmus MC between 2018 and 2023. Median pain scores significantly decreased after 6 weeks. Opioid use declined and 30% of patients no longer required analgesics. Complete wound closure was achieved in 7% of cases.

Imageless and image‐based robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty achieve equivalent radiographic accuracy: A randomised controlled trial

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty systems offer both image‐based and imageless workflows, but their comparative accuracy remains unclear. The robotic surgical assistant (ROSA) system uniquely provides both approaches within a single platform.

Wildfires' Cost for Societal Welfare: Economic Evaluation of Forestry Ecosystem Services Losses in Southern Italy

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Forest ecosystem services (ESs) are garnering increasing public attention as awareness grows regarding society's fundamental dependence on them for well‐being. Forest fires, one of the major disturbances of ESs, are becoming more frequent and destructive, exacerbated in part by climate change.
