The Role of Soil Structure Interaction on the Seismic Resilience of Isolated Structures
Applied Sciences, 2022 Resilience has become an interesting parameter to assess the seismic risk connected with functionality of structures. In this regard, losses due to earthquakes may be significantly reduced by applying isolation at the base of the structures.

Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment of Sweden
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023 Sweden is a low-seismicity, stable continental region where seismic hazard assessment is non-trivial. Diffuse seismicity, low seismicity rate, few large magnitude earthquakes and little strong motion data makes it difficult to estimate recurrence parameters and determine appropriate attenuation relationships.

Metasurface‐Enabled Active‐Like Passive Radar
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A programmable space‐time‐coding metasurface embeds distinct spatiotemporal tags into ambient wireless signals, allowing passive radar to operate in an active‐like manner. By enabling code‐correlated reconstruction under interference, the approach supports robust real‐time UAV tracking in complex environments and points to intelligent, low‐power ...

Redescription of the Triassic cynodont Cistecynodon parvus and reassessment of its phylogeny
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Cynodontia is an important subclade of Therapsida that first occurred in the late Permian. It includes extinct subclades which are the non‐mammaliaform cynodonts and Mammaliaformes, with the latter ultimately giving rise to crown mammals. The systematics of non‐mammaliaform cynodonts has been extensively studied and is relatively well‐resolved,
