PPO‐Based Reinforcement Learning for the Semi‐Active Vibration Control of MDOF Platform
ABSTRACT Aiming at the coupled vibration problem of a multi‐degree‐of‐freedom (MDOF) vibration isolation platform under eccentric excitation, this paper proposes a semi‐active vibration control strategy based on Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) ‐based reinforcement learning (PPO RL).

Confessions of a Poverty Researcher: My Journey Through the Foothills of Scholarship
ABSTRACT This paper describes the key events, experiences and ideas that influenced the author's career as a poverty researcher. He describes how his early disillusion with economics was replaced by a spark of interest in social issues and how his migration from the UK to Australia in the mid‐1970s provided the impetus to begin what became a lifetime ...

Size exclusion chromatography with UV–vis detection, combined with ultrasonication pretreatment, enables sensitive detection and quantification of back‐produced polymer at very low concentrations in produced water. This approach supports reliable polymer monitoring and offers a practical route to improve surveillance of polymer flooding performance ...

Abstract With the development of dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA), there has been an increasing application of DMTA for dietary estimation in extant and fossil reptiles, including dinosaurs. While numerous feeding experiments exist for herbivorous mammals, knowledge remains limited for carnivorous reptiles. This study aimed to qualitatively and
